101.5 in U Shaped Chenille Sectional in Charcoal Grey with a Chaise at Both Ends, Seats 5 to 6

On an L shaped sofa there is exactly one good seat. Whoever gets to the chaise first stretches out, and everybody else sits upright on a 22 inch cushion for the rest of the evening. It is a small thing that happens every single night.

The U shape gives 27.5 inches of chaise at both ends, each with its own bolster to put a head on, and still leaves a 44 inch run across the middle for anyone who would rather sit up. Nobody has to negotiate for the good end.

Both ends turn in

The studio shot. The middle run carries four back cushions and the two chaises face each other across the open side of the U, each with a bolster lying on it. Ten dark legs run along the base rather than sitting only at the corners.

The drawing, in full

One hundred and one and a half inches long, 49.5 deep, 28.5 high. The middle seat run is 44 inches and each chaise 27.5 wide, the left one 41 deep, with an 18 inch seat height and 18 inch back cushions. Total capacity 1000 lb and seating for five to six.

Sitting in the corner of the U

The maker traces a seated figure and marks neck, lumbar, hip and leg. What it usefully shows is the geometry: a back that reaches the shoulders, and a chaise long enough that the legs are supported to the ankle rather than to the knee.

Chenille, close up

A dense two tone pile rather than a flat weave, which is why the grey looks warmer in a room than on a screen. The maker marks it anti pilling and easy to clean.

Each 27.5 inches wide, with the left one measured at 41 inches deep, closing the U on both sides.

The straight section between the two chaises, with four back cushions along it.

The total figure printed on the dimension panel, over a heavy duty wooden frame. A static rating.

Individually wrapped springs under high density sponge, named on the maker's comfort panel.

One on each chaise, 24 by 9 by 5 inches, loose rather than built into the arm.

Named on this listing's own fabric panel and marked skin friendly, anti pilling and easy to clean.

Return within 14 days of purchase, unused, in original condition and packaging.

Covered directly by the manufacturer under their warranty terms for material and manufacturing defects.

Two chaises removes the nightly question of who gets the end of the sofa, which is a better argument than any comfort claim.

A U reads as finished from three sides, so it works in the middle of an open plan floor rather than only against a wall.

What we stand behind

• Every dimension, the 1000 lb capacity and the 5 to 6 seating figure are read from the manufacturer's own panels.
• The written description offers corduroy or chenille. The fabric panel on this listing names chenille and the photographs show a dense pile, so chenille is used.
• The written description calls it a 4 seater in one paragraph and says it seats up to 6 in another. The panel figure of 5 to 6 is used and the conflict is flagged.
• No fibre composition, foam density, spring count, carton dimensions, assembly detail or net weight is published, so none is quoted.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150.
• 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Can the chaises be swapped or moved?

No. Both ends are part of the same U shaped piece, which is the point of this shape rather than a limitation of it. Nothing in the record describes it as modular or reversible, so no rearrangement is claimed here.

How much floor does it need?

One hundred and one and a half inches by 49.5, which is roughly eight and a half feet by just over four. Tape that out before ordering, and remember the open side of the U needs space in front of it for a table and for walking past.

Is grey chenille warmer than grey linen?

To the touch, yes. Chenille is a twisted pile, so it holds air and feels softer and warmer than a flat weave at the same colour, and it reads in two tones depending on which way the pile is lying.

What arrives, and how long until it is usable?

The cushions come vacuum packed and the maker asks for up to 72 hours for full expansion. It will look thin and creased at first. The legs and foot pads are listed as part of the sofa, but no assembly detail is published, so plan for some setup on the day.
