Living-room furniture, measured first
Start with your wall, your doorway and how deep you like to sit. Every piece in the ERYE lineup gives its width, depth and seat height on its page, so you can hold a corner sectional against a U-shape before anything arrives.
01 Shop by shape
An L-shape tucks into a corner, a U-shape runs the length of a wall that faces the TV, and a curved sofa stands out in the room with a path behind it. Pick the outline your floor plan allows, then compare widths inside that part of the ERYE catalog.
02 Shop by width
Width decides how many people sit without bumping elbows and how much of the wall stays free for a lamp or a door. Choose the band that matches your tape, then narrow it by shape.
03 Start here
Cards give the overall width, depth and height of each piece, with its colors as dots underneath. Shortlist two or three, then take the tape to the room before you decide.
04 Three ways to sit
A cloud couch, a sleeper sectional and a power recliner answer different evenings. One comes flat in a box, one opens into a bed for a guest, and one lifts your feet at the press of a button.
Cloud couches
Most of our cloud couches are boneless: no wooden frame inside, only blocks of compressed foam in their covers, vacuum-sealed and boxed. That is how a large corner sectional goes up a narrow stair in pieces you carry yourself. Open each bag in the room where the couch will live, since the foam grows as air gets back in.
Because each module is its own piece, you can run them as an L during the week and slide one out as a spare seat when friends come over. Covers come in corduroy, chenille, boucle and faux leather, and each piece in the ERYE family of pieces states its seat depth and seat height, so you can match the couch to how you like to sit.
Sleeper sectionals
Our sleeper sectionals keep a bed frame under the seat. Pull the strap at the front and the frame slides out, turning the long side of the sofa into a place for a guest to sleep. Push it back in the morning and the room has its sofa again, with nothing folded on the floor.
On most of them the chaise end has a lift-top lid over a storage well, which is where the spare pillows and the duvet go between visits. These pieces come framed, in heavier cartons than a cloud couch, so plan the route from the curb to the room before you order.
Power reclining and lift chairs
Press the button on the side of a power reclining sectional and the footrest rises under your legs. A lift chair goes further: its base raises and tilts the whole seat forward, so the chair brings you close to your feet before you stand. On chairs with more than one motor, the back and the footrest move separately.
Heat and massage are built into several of our lift chairs and run from the same handset. Keep small children off the chair and away from the mechanism, and check under and behind it before you lower the footrest or the seat. A reclined chair also needs clear floor in front of it, so leave room past the coffee table.
05 Fabrics
Corduroy, chenille, boucle, velvet, faux leather and a linen blend each look different in a room and feel different under a hand. Think about who sits where, pets and children included, then see which pieces in the ERYE family of pieces come in the fabric you pick.
Boucle
Looped yarn with a nubby face that looks soft from across the room. Claws and zipper pulls snag the loops, so boucle suits a room where pets stay on the floor.
37 models
Chenille
A soft woven yarn with a short pile and a low sheen that shifts as you brush it. It feels warm under bare arms, and a lint roller keeps it tidy.
80 models
Corduroy
Raised ribs run down the cushions and give a grip you feel when you sit. Crumbs settle between the ribs, so a soft brush does more than a wipe.
91 models
Velvet
A short, dense pile, with flannel and suede-like weaves in the same family. Color looks deeper in it, and the spots where people sit turn lighter until you brush the pile back up.
35 models
Faux leather
Faux leather wipes down with a damp cloth and lets pet hair slide off. Sharp claws and strong sun are what mark it, so keep it out of a window that bakes in the afternoon.
21 models
Linen blend
A linen blend has a dry, matte hand and a slightly uneven weave. It creases where you sit and smooths out again, a casual look rather than a tailored one.
14 models
07 Compare the lines
A cloud couch, a framed sectional, a sleeper and a power recliner differ most in seat depth, seat height and the way they reach your door. Line those up first, and the choice inside the ERYE lineup shrinks to the pieces that suit your room.
| Line | Models | Width | Seat depth | Seat height | Upholstery | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

08 Recliners and lift chairs
One button tips you back and another brings you forward: the base of a lift chair raises and tilts the seat until your feet are under you. Compare seat height, weight capacity and whether the chair lays flat, and leave floor in front for the footrest.
09 Find it by name
Some people know the phrase before they know the size: an ERYE boucle sofa, a storage sectional, a chenille U-shape. Pick the phrase you would type and see every matching piece in the ERYE family of pieces with its widths and colors side by side.
An ERYE U-shape puts three sides of seat around one low table, which turns movie night into something everybody attends. Pick the framed build for a firmer sit, the cloud build for cartons that climb stairs, or a sleeper U that keeps a guest bed inside. Measure the back wall first.
Push an ERYE L-shape into the corner and what remains of the room stays free for a desk, a door or a play mat. Choose the side from where the sofa will stand, or take a reversible chaise if you move often. Many arrive as boxed foam, others framed with a bed inside.
Move one ottoman and your ERYE modular sectional changes shape. Run it as a corner this year and a U when the family grows, or split off a seat for the spare room. Foam modules arrive in boxes you carry in one at a time, while framed modules rest on wooden legs and sit firmer.
Lift a lid on an ERYE storage sectional and the blankets, board games and spare chargers disappear into the sofa. Chaises, ottomans and seat boxes each hold something different, and many models add a pull-out bed, so one piece covers seating, a guest room and a closet.
Ribbed corduroy dresses the largest part of the ERYE seating range, from boxed cloud modules to sleepers that hide a bed. Choose the build first, foam or framed, then the shape, and let the cloth handle the texture. It suits a family room where the couch gets used every evening.
11 Guides
Four questions come up before most orders: will it fit, which shape suits the room, how the sleeper opens, and whether a lift chair suits you better than a recliner.
Measure the wall, the open side and the walkway first, then read overall width, depth and seat depth against your own room.
Door width and diagonal, hallway turns, handrails, headroom and elevator cabs, all measured against the largest box on its way in.
Which room each sectional shape suits, how left-facing and right-facing chaises are named, and what happens to each shape in a new home.
12 Questions
What people ask before they order: doorways, fabrics, sleepers, lift chairs and where to buy.
Measure the door fully open, then the tightest turn and any stair on the way in. A cloud couch travels compressed, so its boxes are much smaller than the finished couch, while a framed or sleeper sectional travels in sections that each have to pass. The Will it fit? guide goes through every measurement, elevator included.
It comes vacuum-sealed and compressed, and most models have no frame to put together. Open each bag in the room where the couch will stay, pat the foam to let air back in, and give it time to rise to full size. A couch packed in more than one box can arrive over different days, so wait for every box before you set it up.
Faux leather wipes down and lets hair slide off, though sharp claws leave marks in its coating. Corduroy and chenille hold hair in their pile, where a rubber brush lifts it, and boucle loops catch on claws. No upholstery stands up to scratching, so keep a throw where the pet naps. The fabric guide compares all six.
Pull the strap at the front of the seat and the bed frame slides out from under it, turning that side of the sofa into a sleeping surface. On sleepers with a storage chaise, lift the chaise lid to reach the bedding. Measure the floor in front of the sofa as well, because the open bed takes that space.
Its base raises and tilts the whole seat forward, so the chair brings you close to standing before you take your own weight. It reclines as well, and the ones marked lay-flat go back to 180 degrees. Keep small children off the chair and away from the mechanism, and check under and behind it before you lower the seat or the footrest.
Yes. Each module is its own piece, so you can turn an L into a straight sofa for a narrow room or pull a seat out as an extra chair when friends visit. On pieces sold with a reversible chaise, the chaise switches sides to follow the room you move into.
