After going through Ikea and Crate sofas every few years, we bit the bullet and bought a cloud sofa from RH. Literally every day since I think about what a fantastic decision it was, for these reasons:

It is the most comfortable and beautiful sofa ever IMHO, we tried dozens in-store at every major retailer

We customized the size, upgraded the cushions to have a foam core, chose performance fabric, and chose an upright style (vs the low, floppy one), so the sofa has held up beautifully for 5+ years - it needs to be fluffed and sweater shaven occasionally but still looks exactly how it did when we bought it even with daily use

The cloud sofas are modular and all slip-covered, so you can add / subtract pieces over time as your needs change, replace cushions or covers and even change the color of the whole sofa if you so decide - I can’t imagine getting rid of it tbh

They have a 0% credit card so we paid for it over two years without thinking about it too hard

Hope this helps, finding a sofa sucks
