In a world where people often strive for the biggest and the best, there will always be a need for more compact alternatives – like the small sofas we’ve compiled below. Most “standard” size sofas measure somewhere in the neighborhood of 84 inches in length, often surpassing 100 inches or more. But these are rarely practical for compact floorplans or for supplemental seating in a home office or bedroom. For these situations, we’ve compiled a list of super stylish small size sofas – 80 inches and below for regular sofas, and 90 inches and below for sectionals. Find the perfect pick for your space, each one available for sale online right now.
