Promising review: "I have looked online for months for a couch to buy that was affordable, comfortable, large enough for two people, easy to assemble, and perfect for a small apartment. This couch is fantastic! I ordered in green because it was more affordable but it is beautiful. It took me 45 minutes on my lunch break to break down my old couch and set this up. So easy, and no hammering or drilling. It doesn’t get easier than this guys, and I built a shelf completely backwards a few months ago so trust me (as the internet stranger I am). Note: part of couch on bottom is hanging off in picture which is my fault because I didn’t push it on right and just need to take five minutes to fix it. The couch is so comfy. I went out the other day, came back, and passed out the entire night on here. And! I woke up feeling great/not sore haha. Can’t recommend enough. Don’t wait, just go for it. You’ll love the pop of color. The feel. The comfort. And the easy assembly." —Jacqueline M Hallauer

Promising review: “At first, I was apprehensive about buying a sofa at a new store with no reviews on Amazon but boy am I glad I did. I love my sofa, it looks amazing! It's honestly beautiful, my place looks so much better now. The blue velvet is stunning. Heck, it looks even better than it does in the photo. The velvet is smooth and does not irritate the skin at all. The cushions are comfortable, especially the back cushions. Please note that at first sit, the bottom cushions are not insanely soft. They are not hard but you won't sink into them when you take that first seat. Keep in mind the sofa is new so it needs to be broken in and the cushions were shipped vacuum sealed. The packaging states to give the cushions 72 hrs to get shape but honestly, mine had great shape and looked amazing as soon as I took them out of the wrapping. Also, know that the chaise is detachable. You can put it on the left or right. Lastly, this was the fastest shipping I've ever seen. Amazon said a week delivery but it arrived in three days!!!" —Arche Jean

12. A modular itty-bitty L-shaped couch and lounger great for a corner, or to add onto a larger piece, that you can arrange any which way you want to fit your space — the relaxation combinations are endless.
Shipping: Arrives within 5–10 business days.
Promising review: "I live in a studio with two small lap/couch dogs and one fat cat. I was tired of feeling squished and uncomfortable on my small hard futon. I love this lounger. I use it as my main and only couch. It's small and yet, because of the flexibility, it can be made longer or kept in chaise position. It definitely takes two people to assemble. It was a bit like a big puzzle, but the instructions are very clear and easy to understand. Just don't discard the clearly labeled boxes for identification. I'd also suggest only opening one box at a time. It's firm but very comfortable. The fabric is very nice, not at all cheap looking. I'm very pleased with this purchase and highly recommend Burrow." —Veronica C.

Promising review: "This couch is perfect! We wanted something dark blue, that was pretty, had some storage, and was going to last. This couch had amazing reviews and I’m so glad I took a chance on it. It came in five separate boxes. Though two came one day and the others came later. It was extremely easy to assemble, and also very easy to customize the shape. Each seat has storage, which I thought would make it uncomfortable but it is very comfy. I was very skeptical of the velvet material but I am in love. It wipes clean so easily. Dog hair comes off with one swipe, and I literally use a baby wipe to any spots and it comes clean straight away! We love that the back cushions come off, it makes it super easy to get comfortable, and the bottom cushions don’t so there’s no slipping. It can be difficult to move the couch as a whole because it’s attached but it wiggles some at the joints. All the backs are low and recline. The reclining really gives you more space on the couch, and though we do wish the back was a bit higher, I think it’s just because we’re used to that. I really great couch. Our 2-year-old uses it as a jungle gym and it holds its own." —kirstin

Promising review: "This was the only sectional I can find that fit perfect in one corner. And I'm so happy with the decision. I went with microfiber fabric because I have a cat. She's not able to scratch it and her fur comes off easily. Reversible washable and flippable cushions is HUGE. So comfortable but also supportive." —Zaina I.

It is firmly supportive to sit or lay on and yet it is very comfortable. I received excellent advice from the Apt2B staff. I was able to get fabric samples which helped me to make my decision.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this couch! I of course was worried about buying a couch online, who wouldn't be. Would it be comfortable? How would I get it upstairs to my apartment? Would it even fit in the elevator? Each part of the loveseat was boxed separately which made moving it much easier. The heaviest box was probably 40 lbs. It took me about 30 minutes to assemble it, they even give you a screwdriver so there are no tools you need to provide! The grey color is amazing and the fabric is very soft! I would absolutely recommend this loveseat to anyone that is in the market for one." –Alyssa Ransom
