What Is the Best Sectional Sofa to Buy in Canada?

There is no single best sectional. There is a best one for your room. Here are our picks by need, with the maker's listed width x depth:

Prices checked November 2026 from our live catalogue, in Canadian dollars.

What Size Sectional Do I Need?

Start with the wall the long side will sit on. Then decide how far into the room the chaise can reach and still leave a clear path to walk.

• Under about 90 inches of wall: a compact model like the Skye (79 in wide) or the Venice (89.5 in wide).
• About 95 to 105 inches: a mid size sleeper like the Jordan (96 in) or the Porter (102 in).
• 115 inches and up: a large L or U shape like the Marleton (115 in), Hailey (123 in) or Liberty (124 in).
• Depth matters too: the Liberty is 64 in deep, while the Hailey reaches 94 in at the chaise.

Tape the full footprint on the floor with painter's tape and live with it for a day. If you keep bumping into the tape, go one size down. Our sectional sofa dimensions guide shows how to measure step by step.

What Is the Difference Between L Shaped, U Shaped, Reversible and Modular?

These words describe the shape and how flexible the sofa is. They are not quality grades.

• L shaped: one long sofa plus a chaise or corner that turns. This is the most common sectional shape.
• U shaped: a chaise or corner at both ends. Great for big rooms and family movie nights.
• Reversible: the chaise can be set up on the left or the right, so it still works if you move.
• Modular: separate pieces you can add, remove or rearrange, like the Cuddle Plush at 2 to 10 pieces.
• Sleeper: a pull out or pop up bed hides under the seat cushions.

Wondering if the shape will date your room? Read are sectionals out of style.

Which Sectionals Have Storage or a Sleeper?

Storage and sleepers are the two features that change how a sectional works day to day. On our current lineup:

• Venice: a storage chaise you can build on either side, plus a pop up bed.
• Jordan: a storage chaise and a loveseat sleeper.
• Hailey: a pop up storage chaise and a pull out sleeper in a large modular L.
• Liberty: two lift up storage chaises and a pull out bed under the middle seats.
• Porter: no storage chaise, but a pull out bed and cup holders on both arms.

A sleeper sectional is great for a guest a few nights a year. If someone sleeps over often, read sleeper sectional vs sofa bed first, or look at a freestanding cabinet bed that opens onto a real mattress.

What Makes a Sectional Comfortable?

Comfort is personal, but a few specs on the product page tell you a lot before you sit.

• Seat height: the Venice sits 18.5 in from the floor. Lower feels lounge like, higher is easier to stand up from.
• Cushion build: look for words like pocket coil springs or high density foam. The Venice uses both.
• Chaise length: a long chaise lets a tall person stretch out without hanging off the end.
• Fabric: woven and chenille fabrics feel soft. Leather look and performance fabrics wipe clean.
• Sit on it: the best test is still 10 minutes on the real thing.

Will a Sectional Fit Through My Door?

Most sectionals come in pieces, which helps. Still, check the biggest single piece against every door, hall and stair turn on the way in.

1. Measure the door width with the door fully open.
2. Measure the tightest hallway and any stair turn.
3. Compare those numbers to the depth and height of the largest piece.
4. Take a photo of tight spots before delivery day.

What does reversible mean on a sectional sofa?

It means the chaise can be set up on the left or the right. The same sofa can face either way, which helps if you move or change your layout.

Some do. On our lineup, the Venice, Jordan, Hailey and Liberty all have a storage chaise. The Porter has cup holders instead. Check each product page for the details.
