TEDDY Sofa in colour Cream White - 5759.
When it comes to curling up for a long TV series binging session or sinking into the weekend, comfort really matters. The sofa you choose can make the difference between “just another seat” and your favourite place in the home.
But what makes a sofa comfortable for watching your favourite shows and relaxing after a long day? If you want a couch that feels like it’s made for Netflix nights and lazy weekends, this guide is for you.
We’ll explore some of the best sofas on the market and show you why our original TEDDY Sofa is designed to keep up with your TV marathons, weekend naps and everything in between.
What comfort really means
Comfort isn’t the same for everyone. Some people want a sofa that feels soft and cosy. Others want support that keeps you upright without slouching. The key is finding a balance between cushion softness, support and space to stretch out.
Here are the main things to look for when buying comfortable couches
Seat depth and height: Deeper seats let you curl up or stretch out without feeling cramped. For TV lounging, this is essential. Basically, your legs deserve room to binge in comfort.
Frame: Think of it as your sofa’s skeleton - it keeps everything together. Look for a solid, kiln-dried wood frame if you want your sofa to last for years of lazy weekends and snack spills. Cheap construction might hold up for a while, but investing in a strong frame means your sofa can last you a lifetime.
Cushion feel: Soft, welcoming cushions are great, but you also need enough support so you don’t sink too far. Many experts recommend a mix of dense foam and softer fibres for long-lasting comfort.
Fabric: Soft fabrics like corduroy, cotton, velvet or textured weaves feel cosy and inviting. Performance fabrics are ideal if you want something that survives spills, paw prints or just life happening. In that case, look for a couch with removable and washable covers.
How to keep your TEDDY Sofa look fresh for years
Sofa styles that work best for TV and lounging
Certain types of sofas consistently score high for lounging and comfort:
Sectionals
Large sectionals are a favourite for TV nights. They offer plenty of space to stretch out, curl up or host friends.
Deep Seat sofas
Extra-deep sofas give you room to sink in, prop your legs up or lie down with a blanket.
Recliners
Sofas with a reclining function let you adjust your seat depending on your mood - upright, leaning back or totally horizontal.
Where TEDDY fits in
TEDDY brings together all the qualities you want in a lounging sofa. It’s modular, soft and supportive. Each seat is deep enough to curl up in with a blanket after a long day, yet firm enough to maintain its shape over time.
Unlike some traditional sectionals, TEDDY adapts to your space and changing moods. You can rearrange it for a to suit a cosy movie night, gathering with friends or a pillow fight with the kids.
Compared with other sofas on the market:
-
Sundays Movie Night Sectional - great for sprawling out, but less flexible than TEDDY’s modular setup
-
Joybird Bryant L‑Sectional - soft and family-friendly, but TEDDY offers more colour options and playful styling
-
Burrow Nomad Velvet Sofa - plush and luxurious, yet TEDDY balances softness with versatility for everyday use
With TEDDY, you get both comfort and flexibility, making it ideal for TV watching, lounging or even working from home on a cosy afternoon.

Tips for choosing the right lounging sofa
Choosing the right sofa isn’t just about picking a colour or style you think matches your home decor. The perfect lounging sofa needs to fit your space, your lifestyle and how you actually live.
Before you decide on your next big sofa purchase, keep these in mind:
-
Sit and stretch in different positions. Comfort is personal - and your ideal sofa shouldn’t come with instructions for use.
-
Check seat depth: Make sure it feels natural whether you’re sitting upright or lying down
-
Think about lifestyle: Pets, kids and guests affect what works best (afterall, your sofa should survive real life)
-
Support and softness: Find the balance that suits your posture and lounging style with the right pillows.
-
Modularity and flexibility: Sofas that can be rearranged or expanded give you options for different moods, movie nights or hosting friends for sleepovers.
Comfort is personal - But TEDDY helps
There isn’t a single sofa that fits everyone. Some people love extra-deep plush seating. Others want firm support with a soft touch. The best one makes you sink in and forget the outside world even exists.
TEDDY works for both. Its modular design and supportive cushions let you customise how you lounge. Sit deep, cosy and flexible - all in one sofa. It’s the kind of sofa you look forward to coming home to everyday.
