    BRAND #1: Cozey

    Cozey is a Canadian, modular-first furniture brand built around real-life use: sofas, sectionals, and sofa-beds that arrive in manageable boxes, assemble without tools, and evolve with your space. Recent milestones include expanding beyond seating into extendable dining and machine-washable rugs. The defining idea is “solutions over showpieces”—removable covers, configurable modules, and shopper-friendly tools (swatches, AR, consults) that make furnishing feel simple and low-risk.

    Cozey | Brand Summary

    Cozey built its name on one big idea: furniture shouldn’t make your life harder. While I think there's something more they could do with 'Cozey vs Hard' puns and witty marketing phrases, I like it!

    From their sofas to sofa-beds, everything claims to ship fast, snap together, and last. But as someone who’s seen more than a few “easy assembly” promises end in chaos, I had to find out for myself and see if this Cozey furniture review would tell a different story.

    What I found in my research was a brand that’s confident, maybe even a little bold, about how easy it is to buy and enjoy their furniture. And how simple comfort should be. But does that confidence hold up once the boxes hit your doorstep? This Cozey couch review looks past the marketing to see whether the brand’s modular magic actually makes life—well, Cozey.

    Cozey | Pros & Cons

    Pros
    • True modular designs that expand or reconfigure over time
    • Removable, often machine-washable covers across many collections
    • Clear, easy assembly with manageable boxes and no tools
    • Helpful shopping aids like free swatches, AR preview, and design consults
    • Broad fabric mix including performance, chenille, bouclé, corduroy, velvet, and leather
    Cons
    • No white-glove/in-home setup in standard delivery
    • Fabric durability varies by collection
    • Returns require original boxes or a fee for replacement packaging





    Cozey’s calling card is flexibility. The sofas ship in apartment-friendly boxes, click together without tools, and let you add or rearrange modules as life changes. Covers come off for cleaning on many models, and the fabric catalog spans performance weaves to cozy chenille and on-trend bouclé. For small spaces or frequent hosts, Neptune’s sofa-bed modules are a standout: fast sit-to-sleep with thoughtful storage baked in.

    The trade-offs are worth noting. Standard delivery is doorstep only—no white glove—so plan a little muscle on arrival. Returns are consumer-friendly at 30 days, but you’ll need the original boxes or you’ll pay for replacements. And while the brand offers a wide fabric ladder, cleanability and abrasion ratings vary, so fabric choice matters if you have pets or kids.

    That said, Cozey keeps the experience calm and predictable. Free swatches show true color and texture at home, the AR tool helps you check scale, and design consultations make configuring sectionals less of a puzzle. Assembly is refreshingly straightforward.

    Bottom line: if you want modular seating that’s easy to live with, easy to clean, and simple to grow, Cozey hits the sweet spot. Just budget a little time for carry-in and pick your fabric with your household in mind.

    BRAND #2: Lovesac

    Lovesac began all the way back in 1995 when the founder, Shawn Nelson, handmade a beanbag chair. The beanbag chair exploded in popularity. After being named the fastest growing furniture company (twice), Lovesac pivoted to focusing on the Sactional, the gold standard of modern modular sofas.

    Lovesac | Brand Summary

    Lovesac has a very specific focus on their Sactional line of couches. Their Sactionals are marketed as an adaptable couch, endlessly configurable, customizable, and have a straightforward modern style. Machine washable fabrics, family-friendly features, and modern flourishes like wireless charging accessories round out their Sactional offering.

    But Sactionals aren’t cheap. A medium-size Sactional will run you thousands of dollars, which is a major factor in the Lovesac review score. Add in overseas manufacturing and a strenuous, at-home Lovesac assembly process and you might find that owning a Sactional isn’t as much fun as the snazzy videos and photos on the website made it seem.

    Lovesac | Pros & Cons

    Pros
    • Incredible modular options
    • Free shipping via FedEx
    • Large and unique fabric catalog
    • Good return policy (quick ship only)
    • Modern high-tech add-ons
    • Machine washable fabrics
    • Has many in-person showrooms
    Cons
    • "Custom" fabric covers are not returnable
    • Fabric selection can significantly raise Lovesac couch price
    • Expensive price point
    • Lovesac assembly can be challenging

    Lovesac’s Sactionals are modern, functional, expandable, and great for families. So what are the downsides?

    As stated earlier, in a Lovesac fabric comparison, Lovesac offers 100+ fabric cover styles for their couches, but only the 30 quick ship options qualify for the Lovesac 60 day return policy. When the Lovesac fabric covers are half the total cost of the Sactional, this can be an expensive discovery.

    Speaking of price, Sactionals are not exactly cheap. An average configuration can run you $5,000+. Choosing a bigger configuration can result in an even bigger bill.

    Yes, delivery is free, but there’s no white glove Lovesac assembly option. And Lovesac assembly can be far more challenging and exhausting than advertised. Make sure you stretch first!

    But don’t worry, Lovesac also has plenty of wins in the pro column. Sactionals are tremendous couches for families and pets. Almost all fabric covers are machine washable. Some are even reversible! They also offer unique fabrics with patterns and colors you won’t find anywhere else.

    Sactionals are amazingly customizable, too. You can choose arm styles, back styles, and down cushion fill. You can even add surround sound systems and phone chargers right inside the couch. There are also multiple ways to configure your setup so you can find fun ways to shake things up.

    Plus, you can visit one of their many showrooms to test out the Sactional in person.
