Deep, plush, all over your feed, and not right for every room. We score cloud sofas on comfort, durability, cleaning, style and value, then let you compare them side by side.
The three cloud couches we would point most people to first, across a range of prices and room sizes.
Reedvales · Budget
A boneless 105-inch modular in ribbed corduroy rather than chenille, with curved arms and five colours. Soft and good-looking, but frameless with fixed covers.
Editor's Choice
Ihanherry · Mid-range
A 103-inch modular sectional with a solid wood and iron frame, a deep 25-inch seat, 13.5-inch cushions, hidden storage under every module and four colours. Around $200 off.
Best Value
DOPEDIO · Mid-range
A three-seat L-shaped sectional with a storage ottoman, a steel-and-wood frame and, rare for this style, covers that are removable and machine washable. Over 1,100 ratings at 4.3.
Every couch gets the same five scores from 0 to 10, so two very different sofas can still be compared on the things that matter after delivery.
Seat depth, how soft the fill is, and how it feels over a long evening, not just a quick sit in a showroom.
Frame material, how well the fabric resists wear, and how the cushions hold up after a year of daily use.
Whether the covers come off, whether they go in a home machine, and how the fabric handles spills and pets.
Neutral colours, how freely you can rearrange the modules, and how many rooms it suits.
The other four scores measured against the price bracket: what you actually get for the money.

Comparison
They look alike in a photo and behave very differently in a room. Comfort, support, durability, cleaning, footprint and price, side by side.
