Comfortable Custom Deep Seat Sofas and Couches

What is Considered a Deep Seat Sofa?

A deep seat sofa generally features a seat depth exceeding 24 inches, measured from the edge of the seat to the backrest. Sofas with depths greater than 43 inches are often categorized as deep seat sofas, while extra-deep sofas usually measure 47 inches or more.

What is the Most Comfortable Seat Depth for a Sofa

The ideal seat depth depends on personal preference and height, making it challenging to find a one-size-fits-all option for everyone in the household. Fortunately, adding cushions and pillows can enhance comfort for all users.

For individuals 6 feet tall or taller, a seat depth of 23 to 27 inches often feels ideal. Most people, however, find a depth of 21 to 22 inches comfortable. If you prefer lounging or stretching out, opting for a deeper seat might be the better choice.
