What is a comfortable seat depth for a sofa?

A comfortable seat depth for a sofa is typically between 55 and 60 cm, as offered by brands such as Koala, King Living, and Freedom.

Seat depth plays a significant role in overall sofa comfort, with most people finding a range of 55 to 60 cm supportive for both upright sitting and relaxed lounging.

For instance, modern furniture brands like Koala, King Living and Freedom commonly design sofas within this range to suit a wide variety of body types and seating preferences.

Deeper seats, sometimes extending up to 70 cm as seen in some modular options, are also available for those who prefer a more laid-back lounging experience.
