It's 1970 Again! The "Pit Sofa" Is Officially Back

This modular sofa comes in a few sizes, but we're inclined to feature the most petite, which stands at 37 by 105 inches. No, it's not small by any means, but it's significantly shorter and narrower than a few others on this list. So if you have a smaller space and don't want to have to settle for anything other than a highly cozy pit sofa, this is your best bet. What's more, you'll get the benefit of shopping at Amazon (think free two-day shipping for Prime members) and the gratification of supporting a small business, WilliamSpace.

If you're worried about getting catfished by your potential new sofa because nothing can possibly be as comfortable as this one looks, fear not. This Albany Park best-seller actually arrives as pictured: with fluffy cloud-like cushions that are both hypoallergenic and 100 percent vegan. It even has more than 1,000 five-star reviews, with some customers going so far as to say, "[It was the] best decision ever to purchase this couch." If mossy green isn't your color, feel free to order this plush couch in any of the additional 13 fabric options, some of which are stain-resistant and others performance-grade. Lastly, we'd like to point out something you may not be able to immediately see: the storage ottoman, which is only $100 more expensive than a regular, non-storage alternative.

It may not be hugely discounted, but this modular sectional, which can be arranged into a pit sofa, is definitely on the more affordable end of the spectrum when it comes to luxury couches. It's available in four colors, all of which are corduroy, so if you have a thing for the 1970s, you can't go wrong with this piece. One word of warning: It's quite big, so if you're working within the confines of a small living room, this may not be the couch for you. One reviewer says, "This couch is HUGE and super comfy! It's also pretty well constructed. It came in six big boxes and was easy to assemble with two people. I love how it looks and the fabric is so soft."

If you like the look of this sofa, don't wait to get it because it's already sold out in the additional three colors. Trust us; the people who already have it love it, so join the party and get it for your space as well. One customer even said, "This is the most perfect couch I have EVER owned. It's both beautiful and comfortable, and the ability to make multiple configurations is just amazing. Look no further. I have nothing negative to say whatsoever." It's also easy to care for. Just remove the cushions and clean them however you normally would, then pop them back on. The corduroy fabric is super easy to clean, too.

We'll be the first to say it: This sofa is not cheap, but it's definitely worth the price. Here's why: It's totally customizable. In fact, it's available in more than 50 fabric options. You also don't have to worry about figuring out complicated assembly instructions because white glove delivery is included. Last but certainly not least: This is not a sofa you'll want to run and dive onto because its cushions (both back and seat) are made entirely of memory foam, which is cozy to sit on, but not so much to fall on. If you're unsure how to style it, feel free to enlist one of West Elm's myriad design experts to help.

If you don't know 7th Avenue, now is your chance to become acquainted because this is a brand worth bookmarking. Not only can this hypoallergenic down alternative-filled sofa comfortably seat six people, but it can also double as a full-blown bed—no back straining or upper body strength required. The best part, though, is the customizable options, which range from cushion firmness colors and fabrics, all of which are water- and stain-repellent, removable, and washable. So no matter how many movie or game nights you host, you'll never have to worry about your sofa showing signs of too much fun.

If you've been eyeing all of these pits and thinking they can double as sleeper sofas, Burrow has you beat. The brand's famed pit-shaped sectional offers its full sleep kit (which includes a memory foam mattress topper, a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, a quilted blanket, a pillow, and even an eye mask) for just $279. Back to the sofa: it's available in four fabrics and three leg finishes, so go ahead and match it with the pieces in the rest of your space. "This is my favorite go-to place when I want to chill out. Not only is it comfy, but it's big enough for me and my two pups," one reviewer said.

Plenty of the picks on our list feature a modular design, so it should come as no shock that the penultimate option is also, you guessed it, modular. What makes such a design unique is the fact that you can configure and reconfigure it however you want. So on movie nights, you may want to put it in a pit-like shape for maximum comfort, but on other occasions, you could be more tempted to arrange it like a classic U-sectional with a floating ottoman. No matter what you're in the mood for, you can indulge your fancy. It's also available in eight relatively neutral performance fabrics, so it will work in basically in any space.

Interior Define prides itself on how much autonomy its customers have when shopping. This pit sectional, for instance, comes with fabric, size, and cushion fill options. The best part about shopping at Interior Define, though, is its Buy Now, Decide Later function, which, as its name implies, lets you lock in a sale now and pick your customizations later—even if the sale has already ended. Also, similar to how some online clothing companies share which size the model pictured is wearing (to give you a sense of which size to get and how it will look on you), Interior Define shows a video of three different people of various heights lounging on the Tatum.
