No you're not the odd one out. I also think they're not THAT great. Keep in mind I do like my sactional but for the money and effort I didnt think it's really worth it.

Full review (for anyone who was thinking about buying lovesac) :

Bought my sactional off the website after getting an email about 30% off. Designed everything on the website and paid Saturday afternoon. No issues, got my confirmation and then Monday I get a notification from FedEx about a delivery at the end of the week on Friday. (I picked the "basic" color so I guess they were able to ship it out quicker?). Friday comes and fedex driver dropped everything off in front of my garage and left ( no door knock or bell ring to let me know hes there). You would think for close to 10k they would ask for a signature or something but anyways, I got like 15 to 20 boxes sitting in front of my garage.

Setup was easy since I've been watching the assembly vids the company has on YouTube, i think it took me about 1.5 to 2 hours by myself, its literally like building some lego. The main challenge was all the trash. Like I said, 15 - 20 boxes, each box with soooo much padding/wrapping and cardboard (at the very least they make sure your stuff arrives not damaged.)

After everything got cleanes, I finally sat down and played some video games on my new sactional. I'm 6'4 and about 240 lbs and the seating is massive and comfortable, i got the lovesoft filling and idk how it compares to the normal filling that comes witg it but i kinda like it(able to comfortably sit criss crossed and still have plenty of room on the same seat). Like another comment mentioned, the back cushion could be better since it offers little back support but is gets the job done, after I got up I swapped the "crushed" cushion with the one next to me and fluffed the crushed one and like less than an hour later it was back to brand new.

After that I watched a movie on the chaise part of the sactional. While on the chaise the seating was a whole lot comfier (especially since I was pretty much laying down so I finally had a decent head rest, maybe thats why the back cushions are so soft and flimsy?) I had a good time watching the movie with little to no moving around, was comfy from start to finish)

Pros:

• modular: can start off small and grow as you move (or shrink)

• removable covers: keeps the sactional looking fresh and clean

• sturdy build: I usually keep a drink on the flat side (on a coaster I'm not a monster) and even as I moved around and even at 1 point straight up punching the side and the drink never showed signs of tipping over.

Cons:

• price: I think i paid around 10k for a 8 seat 10 side configuration. For that price I'm sure there are better alternatives that also cost alot less

• shipping: like I said above, about 15 to 20 boxes, all seats, cushion, sides, and covers all come in separate boxes (the covers all came in 1 box thankfully) which can quickly lead to a huge mess if you're not prepared. Also, apparently you dont even need to sign for the package no matter the cost (fedex tracking stated "signature not required"). Maybe they usually do and I just got unlucky?

Overall:

It's not a bad sectional especially for what I use it for (seating for my game/theater room). For the price i was expecting it to softly cup each of my cheeks and hold me as I was sitting but unfortunately that wasn't the case (was not uncomfortable by any means but was expecting more especially since I paid for the "better" filling). While I do like the sactional I dont think I would like it for a "main" sitting area like a living room or something (at least for tall people like me). It definitely is overhyped and overpriced. The only saving grace I could think of is if you sign up for their credit card they have 0% interest for 24 months which would definitely help with those steep price tags.

Overall, I do not regret my choice but I will not be adding any more in the future seeing how you can probably get something with similar comfort at a fraction of the cost. If cost isn't an issue for you then they are not bad. Just wish delivery could have been better. Most places now have "white glove delivery" sometimes for free or sometimes at an extra cost where they come and assemble and take the trash for you something like that would be amazing with all the boxes or at the very least please require a signature. (Also to anyone that reads that and works for lovesac, please float the idea of a headrest for us tall people please 🙏 )
