Reversible Chaise Sofa - The Ultimate in Versatility

When looking for sofas, there are many things to take into consideration. You've probably heard terms like "left-arm-facing" (LAF), and "right arm-facing" (RAF).

These are just a few of the lingo furniture brands use to describe asymmetrical sections and couches like Albany Park's Kova. These modular picks have an extended chaise cushion that extends over an ottoman that is floating that makes it easy to swap sides.

Flexibility

When shopping for sectional furnishings, there are many things to consider. There's an abundance of terms to be able to comprehend (we're talking "left-arm facing" versus "right-arm facing," as well as the difference between standard sectional wedges and corner wedges) However, different kinds of sectionals can be found in a variety of configurations. A reversible sofa with chaise is among the best options to achieve flexibility.

Reversible chaises means that you can change between left and right chaise without having to remove the entire seat and ottoman combination, like traditional chaise sectional pieces. It's as simple as swapping the cushion of the chaise from one end of the sofa to the opposite side. It's usually much easier than it sounds.

The result is a sofa that is modular with the ability to be adjusted and altered over time as your family expands. Albany Park's Kova, with its individual seating and movable ottoman is a good example. It allows you to create an L - or U-shaped couch to provide more seating and comfort. This is the kind of flexibility you'll need to keep your living area beautiful and inviting for years to come, especially if kids and pets are involved.

The Leo reversible chaise sofa from Wayfair is another reader favorite. It's easy to reposition and offers a variety of seating options. This L-shaped model is equipped with a reversible seating option that can be moved to the left or right, and two other seats that offer a generous 25 inch depth for comfort. Leo comes in a variety of upholstery options that are easy to clean and suitable for children and pets, such as performance polyester and basketweave that is textured.

Similar to Pottery Barn's Sanford roll arm sectional has been designed with the family in mind. It's available in two colors, vintage brown and caramel tan, and comes with a chaise that can be reversed from left to right. The powder-coated legs and birch wood frames are made to last.

There are many manufacturers who make this style of modular couch. It is important to read reviews and look for high-density cushion foam and pocket springs. You'll want to select the sofa with a cover that can be removed, that is easy to clean and resistant to stains and spills. Additionally you'll want to choose the sectional with an untreated wood frame that has been kiln dried.

Comfort

If you're looking for a sofa that can be adapted to different living spaces, a reversible chaise sofa is the best option. These shape-shifting options let you switch between a left and right chaise layout by shifting the long, chaise-style cushion over an ottoman that's a stand-alone platform. You will have to replace the seat cushions, but you can still enjoy the same amount of seating and relaxation area like you would with any other sectional.

A good reversible chaise sofa will feature dense foam padding and soft fabric upholstery that's comfortable yet durable enough to stand up to years of daily use. This will allow you to relax for hours without feeling like your chair is sinking or sagging. It's also a good idea to opt for a reversible chaise sofa with sleek lines to help keep the overall look of your living space clean and stylish.

The right reversible chaise sofa for you will depend on the overall dimensions of your living room. A room that is large could benefit from modular sectionals that can be enlarged with the addition of additional seating units, while smaller spaces may be better off with a smaller reversible chaise sofa.

The overall texture and color in your living space is another thing to think about. For example, if you are looking to add a touch of brightness or an accent of color to your living space, a light-colored reversible chaise sofa is a good option. A darker shade can give your room a more sophisticated look.

If you are planning to make your reversible sofa a bed, choose a model that has a pull-out trundle. For instance the Pottery Barn Sanford roll arm sectional features plenty of storage and extra seating, plus a pull-out trundle that transforms the sofa into a comfortable double bed for guests staying overnight. For added comfort this sofa is padded with high-density foam as well as pocket spring cushioning.

Durability

Reversible chaise sofas in addition to being stylish and comfortable, are also extremely durable. Sectional sofas with reversible recline chaises are generally constructed from a strong metal frame and wood frame, as opposed to conventional sofas that are made from fabric and upholstery which are prone to being damaged through spills or use. This means that they can stand up to the wear and tear of daily living, making them a great option for homes with children or pets.

Another advantage of reversible sectional couches that have chaises that can be reversible is that they're usually designed to save space. While a traditional chaise lounge occupies lots of floor space, reversible sofas with chaises are able to fold up when they are not being used, preserving valuable space and freeing space for other furniture or decor items. They are ideal for apartments or homes with small spaces where space is limited.

Sectional couches with chaises that are reversible tend to be more modular than traditional sectionals. This means they're more convenient to move around and re-configure as needed. This is particularly useful when renting and you need to find a new place to live or if you frequently entertain guests and require more seating.

Sectional sofas that are reversible and have chaises may be more difficult than regular sofas to clean. However, this can be overcome by choosing models with removable covers and washable fabrics, as well as reversible cushions that can be flipped over to freshen up the appearance of your couch.
