Albany Park is a small business run by Jessica Ross who became fed up with shopping in expensive designer showrooms and being overwhelmed with hundreds of sofa options. Albany Park's furniture is way less expensive than average, takes less time to be delivered, and is designed to be moved into apartments (aka they come in pieces that easily snap together).
Promising review: "Absolutely love this couch! We were couch hunting for years. It was hard to find the right couch for us and our fur babies. Came across this couch and it was love at first sight. We were worried about how comfy it would be but it’s honestly the most comfortable couch we have ever owned. I even slept on the couch for a whole week when I was sick and it was great. Plus, our dogs LOVE the couch. The pups ruined our last couch so I really love how I can rotate the cushions. There is enough space for everyone to sit comfortably." —Laura P
Get it from Albany Park for $3,896+ (originally $5,994; available in 33 fabrics/colors and with or without storage ottomans).Â
6. A low-profile modern number that — with its built-in shelves and angular design — low key looks like something out of a Sims house. Too bad there's no money-making "rosebud!;!;!;!" cheat IRL, huh?
Promising review: "Comfortably firm seat. My baby can stand without wobbling. Spacious room to sit or lay down. It looks good just like pictures. Love all the pillows; they are very comfortable. The five little ottomans are very practical. I combine four of them so I rest my feet. Very modern and smart design." —Sarah
Get it from Wayfair for $3,000+Â (originally $3,550; available in four orientations).Â
7. A low-profile, armless five-seater featuring overstuffed cushions that come in plush velvet and durable pet-friendly fabrics depending on your needs.Â
Promising review: "This couch checks every box on my list and then some. It has deep, cozy cushions for lounging, but doesn’t look sloppy or unkempt. It’s chic and beautiful and put together. It’s fits my space perfectly, but the modular option means I can add or adjust if I so choose. I opted for Crave Irish Cream and the fabric is beautiful, soft, pet friendly, easy to clean and looks so chic in my place. Everyone I know wants to know where I bought my couch and I’m shouting Joybird from the rooftops. Thank you so much for making all my couch dreams come true." —Tara W.

9. A Lovesac "Sactional" the brand bills as "The World’s Most Adaptable Couch" — and reviewers seem to agree! They say it's comfortable, durable, stylish, and, according to one super jazzed buyer, "the scene-stealer every Hollywood producer dreams of."Â
BuzzFeed shopping editor Heather Braga has one and loves it, saying:Â
"I recently upgraded from the couch I had lugged from my apartment to my house to a Lovesac Sactional and all I can say is 'wow!' Mine is pictured above (left) before we opened our ottoman piece (which is why a back piece is seemingly missing, as each seat comes with a back piece). Anyways, my husband and I are lucky enough to live near a Lovesac store, so before ordering online we went in and tested out all of our options. The Sactionals are so customizable it's nearly overwhelming trying to make a decision! Like many couches, they come in many types of fabrics and colors, but Lovesac does things differently by offering so many configuration options, tons of storage, various arm styles, different seating depths, and the ability to build speakers directly into the couch (just to name a few things!). We opted for a full sectional style and had storage put in every single seat, which we've been using to store throw blankets and my toddler's extensive stuffed animal collection. I love that if we ever want to redecorate our home we can just re-outfit the couch in a different fabric. And it's SO easy to clean — each piece of fabric can be tossed into the washing machine. To date my sister has two Sactionals (and standard Lovesacs) and my cousin just ordered one as well!"
Get it from Lovesac for $3,399+ (originally $4,710; available in many configurations and styles).
