Macy's Sofa Reviews (2026)

Macy’s sofa lineup runs from compact, style-forward sofas to sprawling sectionals and power-reclining leather seating.

To keep this review grounded in everyday use, I focused on four popular options and lived with them the way most people use a couch: long TV nights, laptop sessions, quick naps, and hosting friends. The biggest wins were seat comfort and overall value; the biggest trade-offs were heat retention on some materials and the real-world hassle of moving and maintaining larger builds.

Product Overview

Sofa Overall Score Pros Cons Ideal For Approx. Price
Radley 5-Piece Fabric Chaise Sectional 4.0 Huge lounge footprint; reversible cushions Needs a big room; fabric upkeep Families, movie marathons, frequent hosting $2,679
Jollene 78" Fabric Sofa 4.1 Versatile seat depth; style-to-comfort balance Needs routine cushion fluffing Apartments, daily lounging, mixed-height households $879
Myriem 87" Fabric Sofa 4.1 Plush sink-in feel; wipe-clean ease Attached cushions limit adjustability Casual living rooms, TV + laptop routines $799
Nevio 82" 2pc Leather Sofa with 2 Power Recliners 3.8 Power recline comfort; easy leather wipe-down Heavy to reposition; more parts to maintain Dedicated TV seating, recline-first households $2,249

Testing Team Takeaways

Across this set, the biggest difference was how each sofa supported posture during long stretches—movie marathons, reading, and laptop work.

Radley was the best for spreading out and hosting, but it demands space and consistent fabric care. Jollene was the easiest daily driver: the seat depth worked for more body types without awkward leg angles. Myriem delivered a plush, modern sit with low-fuss wipe-down cleaning, though the attached cushions limit adjustability. Nevio was the TV-first comfort play—power recline on demand—but it was the least forgiving to move, with more components to maintain over time.

How We Tested It

We rotated each sofa through everyday life (using the same checklist described in our how we test sofas guide): delivery and setup, a first-week break-in, then long viewing sessions, laptop work blocks, and casual naps.

We scored Assembly, Cooling, Comfort, Durability, Layout Practicality, Cleaning, and Value. For Comfort, we looked at seat comfort, back support, and seat-depth fit, and we also tracked the small realities—how easy it was to shift positions, stand up, and reset the room for guests.

Macy's Sofa: Our Testing Experience

Radley 5-Piece Fabric Chaise Sectional

Our Testing Experience

Radley changed the room immediately. The footprint invites people to spread out without negotiating for space. I spent most evenings rotating between the corner and the chaise, and the 24" seat depth made it easy to settle into a semi-reclined posture without feeling perched. Jenna and Ethan did a full two-person movie night on the chaise-to-corner run, and Marcus treated the chaise like a stand-in bed during late gaming. The cushions stayed supportive for long sessions, but for upright laptop work I got better results with a small lumbar pillow.

What we liked

  • Big, lounge-ready seating that doesn’t feel cramped

  • Reversible cushions made the “week two” feel closer to “week one”

  • Easy to host without everyone fighting for the comfortable spot

Who it is best for

  • Families or frequent hosts who want a true sprawl zone

  • Taller users who actually benefit from a deeper seat

  • Anyone prioritizing movie-night comfort over upright posture

Where it falls short

  • Deep-seat posture can flatten lumbar support during laptop work

  • The scale is unforgiving in smaller rooms

  • Fabric care is a real part of ownership, not an afterthought

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Huge seating capacity for everyday use and guests Requires a large room to feel proportional
Deep seat makes lounging and napping feel natural Upright work posture often needs a lumbar pillow
Reversible/removable cushions help day-to-day maintenance Fabric upkeep is more demanding than leather wipe-down
Layout reads clean and modern with track-style arms Repositioning pieces is not casual “move it yourself” work

Jollene 78" Fabric Sofa

Our Testing Experience

Jollene was the sofa I kept returning to for “normal life” comfort—reading, short naps, and sitting upright without overthinking posture. Mia immediately noticed the 21" seat depth was easier on shorter legs; she could curl up without her feet dangling or her hips sliding forward. Carlos used it for laptop work and found the back cushions plush, so he adjusted his sitting position to keep his neck and mid-back aligned. The bigger win for me was how quickly it looked pulled together again after use.

What we liked

  • Seat depth works for a broader range of heights

  • Easy to “live on” without constant pillow engineering

  • Style feels intentional without sacrificing comfort

Who it is best for

  • Apartment living or smaller living rooms

  • Mixed-height households that share the same sofa

  • People who alternate between upright sitting and lounging

Where it falls short

  • Plush back cushions can feel too soft for long upright work

  • Needs routine fluffing to keep the back looking crisp

  • Solvent-based spot-clean guidance is less forgiving than wipe-clean

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Balanced seat depth supports everyday sitting and lounging Softer back cushions can reduce upright support over time
Compact size fits smaller rooms without feeling tiny Requires periodic cushion maintenance to stay neat
Removable/reversible back cushions add flexibility Cleaning approach is more cautious than simple wipe-down
Strong value for the price Not the best pick for deep-sprawl lounging

  • Overall dimensions: 78"W x 38"D x 33"H

  • Seat depth: 21"

  • Seat height: 18"

Review Score

Metric Score Remarks
Assembly 4.2 Straightforward setup profile with removable legs
Cooling / Breathability 4.0 Stays relatively neutral during long sits
Seat Comfort 4.3 Plush enough for lounging without feeling unstable
Back Support 3.9 Comfortable, but softer back needs posture awareness

Cleaning 3.7 Cleaning guidance is cautious, especially for spills
Value 4.6 Excellent price-to-comfort ratio in daily use
Overall Score 4.1 The easiest “everyday sofa” in this group

Myriem 87" Fabric Sofa

Our Testing Experience

Myriem felt like the sofa equivalent of throwing on a hoodie: casual, plush, and easy to settle into. Jamal liked the 20" seat height because standing up felt more natural after stretching—no climbing out of a low seat. Mia used it for long calls and reading and preferred the rounded profile, which felt gentler on the outer hip when she curled into a corner. The tight, attached cushions kept the surface looking consistent day to day, but it also meant you can’t swap or rotate cushions when one spot becomes the default.

What we liked

  • Plush comfort that still feels stable under posture changes

  • Higher seat height makes it easier to stand up quickly

  • Low-fuss cleaning routine for everyday mess

Who it is best for

  • Casual living rooms where the sofa is used all day

  • Taller users who prefer a slightly higher sit

  • Households that want simple maintenance without constant cushion flipping

Where it falls short

  • Attached cushions limit “rotate and refresh” strategies

  • Breathability is average during long sessions

  • The look is bold; it won’t disappear into every décor style

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Plush seating with spring support feels stable Attached cushions reduce adjustability and rotation
Higher seat height improves ease of standing Not the coolest option for long, warm-room sessions
Wipe-clean care makes everyday maintenance easier Style is more modern and rounded than classic silhouettes
Consistent “always looks put together” surface Less modular flexibility than sectionals

Details

  • Price: $799

  • Overall dimensions: 87"W x 37"D x 37"H

  • Seat dimensions: 22" depth; 20" seat height; 25" arm height; 69" seat length between arms

  • Cushion features: attached cushions; spring seat support

  • Frame and upholstery: plywood frame; 100% polyester upholstery

  • Cushion materials: 2.0 density foam with a Dacron wrap

  • Assembly: minimal assembly required; attached legs

  • Cleaning: wipe clean

Review Score

Metric Score Remarks
Assembly 4.3 Minimal setup and a stable, consistent build
Cooling / Breathability 3.9 Comfortable, but not the most breathable for long sits
Seat Comfort 4.2 Plush feel that stays supportive through shifts and lounging
Back Support 4.0 Relaxed support that works best in casual postures
Seat Depth Fit 4.0 A flexible middle-ground depth for most adults
Durability 4.1 Spring support and steady structure feel reassuring
Ease of Movement / Repositioning 4.0 Easier than a sectional; still substantial at 87"
Cleaning 4.0 Wipe-clean practicality stands out for real life
Value 4.5 Strong comfort and simplicity at a lower entry price
Overall Score 4.1 Plush, modern, and easy to maintain day to day

Nevio 82" 2pc Leather Sofa with 2 Power Recliners

Our Testing Experience

Nevio was the dedicated TV seat in this group. The moment we plugged it in, the room started behaving like a theater setup. Marcus and Carlos ran the long-session test—sports, gaming, then a late-night doze—and the power recline made it easy to take pressure off the lower back and legs. I liked being able to shift from upright viewing to a relaxed angle without scooting forward and compressing the seat edge. The trade-off is practical living: it’s heavy, it needs clearance to recline, and it’s not something you casually drag to vacuum behind. Comfort is the headline, but ownership feels more planned than casual.

What we liked

  • Power recline makes long viewing sessions easier on the body

  • Leather is quick to wipe down after normal use

  • Reclined length supports actual leg extension

Who it is best for

  • Households that prioritize recline-first comfort

  • People who watch a lot of TV and want repeatable positioning

  • Users who prefer leather feel and quick wipe-down cleaning

Where it falls short

  • More parts and power features raise the maintenance bar

  • Heavy to reposition and layout-dependent

  • Upright posture depends on how you use the headrest and recline angle

Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
Dual power recliners enable precise lounging angles Heavy build makes room changes and cleaning behind harder
Reclined length supports full-leg relaxation Requires planning for clearance from the wall
Leather wipe-down is convenient for daily mess Mechanical complexity increases long-term upkeep needs
Track-arm silhouette fits modern rooms Not a natural fit for tight spaces

Details

  • Price: $2,249

  • Overall dimensions: 82"W x 40"D x 32"H

  • Reclined length: 63"

  • Minimum distance from wall to recline: 4"

  • Seat height: 20"

  • Arm height: 25.6"

  • Upholstery: 100% leather

  • Recline system: Leggett and Platt “300 EZ” mechanism; metal truss plates in seat framing

  • Assembly: power reclining build; white glove delivery eligible

  • Cleaning: leather wipe-down routine

Review Score

Metric Score Remarks
Assembly 3.8 Manageable with delivery help, but not “simple setup”
Cooling / Breathability 3.8 Comfortable, but leather breathability is limited over time
Seat Comfort 4.2 Recline positioning boosts comfort for long sessions
Back Support 4.0 Strong when reclined; upright depends on your setup
Seat Depth Fit 4.0 Fits a wide range in recline use, less clear for strict upright sitting
Durability 3.3 More mechanisms mean more potential failure points
Ease of Movement / Repositioning 3.4 Heavy and layout-dependent once placed
Cleaning 4.2 Wipe-clean practicality is a real advantage
Value 3.6 Worth it for dedicated TV comfort, less compelling for general use
Overall Score 3.8 A recline-first sofa that rewards a planned layout

Compare Performance Scores of These Sofas

Sofa Overall Score Seat Comfort Back Support Seat Depth Fit Cooling / Breathability Durability Ease of Movement / Repositioning
Radley 5-Piece Fabric Chaise Sectional 4.0 4.4 4.1 3.9 3.8 3.8 3.8
Jollene 78" Fabric Sofa 4.1 4.3 3.9 4.2 4.0 4.0 4.2
Myriem 87" Fabric Sofa 4.1 4.2 4.0 4.0 3.9 4.1 4.0
Nevio 82" Leather Power Reclining Sofa 3.8 4.2 4.0 4.0 3.8 3.3 3.4

If you want the most even performance, Jollene and Myriem are the cleanest “set it and live on it” picks, with strong comfort and few practical penalties. Radley delivers the biggest lounge payoff, but you pay for it in space demands and extra fabric-care discipline. Nevio’s scores tell the story clearly: the comfort is there, but the moment you factor in durability risk and the realities of moving a powered piece, it becomes a specialized choice rather than a universal one.

How to Choose the Macy's Sofa?

Start with seat depth and your default posture. If you sit upright with a laptop, a moderate depth tends to keep your hips and lower back more naturally stacked; if you sprawl, deeper seats feel more forgiving.

Next, measure a sofa’s footprint against your room: large sectionals reward open space, while compact sofas keep walkways from feeling tight. Finally, be honest about upholstery maintenance—wipe-down materials are simpler than strict spot-clean rules if you have kids, pets, or frequent guests. In this set, Jollene is the easiest fit for petite loungers and mixed-height households; Myriem is a plush, low-fuss daily driver; Radley is the hosting and sprawl anchor; and Nevio is the recline-first TV pick.

Limitations

These Macy’s picks lean into comfort and visual presence, so the trade-offs tend to show up in breathability, posture precision, and long-term ease of ownership. Radley isn’t forgiving in small rooms or for frequent rearranging. Jollene can feel too soft in the back for strict upright work. Myriem’s attached cushions reduce day-to-day adjustability and rotation. Nevio needs clearance planning, access to power, and a willingness to live with a more complex mechanism.

Macy's Sofa Vs. Alternatives

  • Why choose these models

    • Strong comfort-per-dollar on mainstream builds

    • A clear range of formats: sectional sprawl, compact sofa, plush daily driver, power recliner

    • Published dimensions and care guidance make planning straightforward

  • Alternatives to consider

    • Crate & Barrel Lounge Deep: if you want extra-deep, low seating built for curling up

    • IKEA KIVIK: if you want modular flexibility and a more standardized system approach

    • West Elm Harmony: if you want a deep-seat sectional designed for sprawling with plush cushions

Pro Tips for Macy's Sofa

  • Measure more than wall length—map your walking paths so the room doesn’t become “all sofa.”

  • If you’re between sizes, prioritize seat-depth fit over arm style; comfort shows up daily.

  • For deep seats, keep a slim lumbar pillow nearby to prevent low-back flattening during long TV nights.

  • Rotate where you sit when possible; even small habit changes slow down “favorite spot” wear.

  • Vacuum seams and cushion edges weekly to keep grit from grinding into fabric and stitching.

  • Treat spills as a timing issue: blot quickly, then follow the listed care method instead of improvising.

  • For power recliners, plan outlet access and leave recline clearance before you commit to placement.

  • Use felt pads or furniture glides early—big pieces are easier to protect floors with than to repair later.

  • If you host often, test “guest posture”: can someone sit upright comfortably without sinking into a lounge slump?

  • Recheck doorways and stair turns before delivery day; big sectionals are logistics before they’re furniture.

FAQs

Which of these feels best for long movie nights?

Radley is the sprawl winner, while Nevio is best if you want recline-on-demand comfort and repeatable positioning.

Which option works best for smaller living rooms?

Jollene is the easiest fit for smaller rooms at 78" wide, and it still reads like a full-size sofa rather than a downsized compromise.

Which is easiest to keep clean day to day?

Myriem is the simplest for quick wipe-down maintenance. Leather is typically easier for fast surface cleanup than textured fabric, too.

Do deep seats automatically mean better comfort?

Not always. Deep seats help lounging, but if you sit upright for work, a moderate depth can keep your hips and lower back in a less slouched position.

Our Testing Team

Chris Miller

Lead Tester

Chris oversees the full testing pipeline for mattresses, sofas, and other home products. He coordinates the team, designs scoring frameworks, and lives with every product long enough to feel real strengths and weaknesses. His combination-sleeping and mixed lounging habits keep him focused on long-term comfort and support.

Marcus Reed

Heavyweight Sofa & Mattress Tester

Marcus brings a heavier build and heat-sensitive profile into every test. He pushes deep cushions, edges, and frames harder than most users. His feedback highlights whether a design holds up under load, runs hot, or collapses into a hammock-like slump during long gaming or streaming sessions.

Carlos Alvarez

Posture & Work-From-Home Specialist

Carlos spends long hours working from sofas and beds with a laptop. He tracks how mid-back, neck, and lumbar regions respond to different setups. His notes reveal whether a product keeps posture neutral during extended sitting or lying, and whether small adjustments still feel stable and controlled.

Mia Chen

Petite Side-Sleeper & Lounger

Mia tests how mattresses and sofas treat a smaller frame during side sleeping and curled-up lounging. She feels pressure and seat-depth problems very quickly. Her feedback exposes designs that swallow shorter users, leave feet dangling, or create sharp pressure points at shoulders, hips, and knees.

Jenna Brooks

Couple Comfort & Motion Tester

Jenna evaluates how well sofas and mattresses handle real shared use with a partner. She tracks motion transfer, usable width, and edge comfort when two adults spread out. Her comments highlight whether a product supports relaxed couple lounging, easy repositioning, and quiet nights without constant disturbance.

Jamal Davis

Tall, Active-Body Tester

Jamal brings a tall, athletic frame and post-workout soreness into the lab. He checks seat depth, leg support, and surface responsiveness on every product. His notes show whether cushions bounce back, frames feel solid under long legs, and sleep surfaces support joints during recovery stretches and naps.

Ethan Cole

Restless Lounger & Partner Tester

Ethan acts as the moving partner in many couple-focused tests. He shifts positions frequently and pays attention to how easily a surface lets him turn, slide, or return after short breaks. His feedback exposes cushions that feel too squishy, too sticky, or poorly shaped for real-world lounging patterns.
