Sofa with Chaise Longue: the Ultimate Guide to Buying and Styling

Why the Chaise Longue has Become Everyone's Favourite Upgrade

The sofa with chaise longue has quietly become the most popular sofa configuration in European living rooms. The reason is simple: it solves the problem of wanting to lie down properly in your living room without committing to an entire sectional sofa. The extended section provides a genuine full-length lounging surface that a standard sofa arm cannot replicate.

Left-Hand or Right-Hand Chaise: How to Decide

The most common question when buying a sofa with chaise longue is which side the chaise should go on. The answer depends entirely on your room: the chaise should sit against a wall or extend toward the less-trafficked side of the room. Stand in the doorway and look at the room — the side the chaise faces into should be where it makes most sense to walk from.

Sofa with Chaise vs Corner Sofa — What's the Difference?

A sofa with chaise longue and a corner sofa are often confused but they're different products. A chaise longue attachment is designed for one person to recline on — it provides an extended surface but isn't a full extra seating position. If you need to seat many people go corner sofa; if you want a luxurious lounging surface go chaise longue.
