# Answers

Plain answers to the questions people ask before, during and after buying a sofa, sofa bed, sectional or chair.

- [Most Comfortable Couch: The Answer Is a Sit, Not a Brand](https://plushpick.com/blog/most-comfortable-couch/): Looking for the most comfortable couch? Skip the brand. One maker's own catalog spans 26 to 38 inches of seat depth, so the sit decides comfort, not the name.
- [What Makes a Couch Comfortable: The Seat and the Back Have to Agree](https://plushpick.com/blog/what-makes-a-couch-comfortable/): What makes a couch comfortable comes down to one trade off: a deeper seat almost always means a lower back, right where support drops away most.
- [Cloud Couch Dupe: The Answer Is a Store, Not a List](https://plushpick.com/blog/cloud-couch-dupe/): Already picked a store for your cloud couch dupe? See exactly what Costco, IKEA, Albany Park, Amazon and Monvane publish, seat by seat, before you buy.
- [Futon vs Sofa Bed: One Surface or Two](https://plushpick.com/blog/futon-vs-sofa-bed/): See why futon vs sofa bed prices differ so much. A futon's mattress does both jobs; a sofa bed keeps sitting and sleeping separate, $299.99 versus $549.
- [Sofa vs Loveseat: What You Give Up With the Smaller One](https://plushpick.com/blog/sofa-vs-loveseat/): Sofa vs loveseat on a matched pair: IKEA's KIVIK loveseat and sofa share every dimension except width, so the choice is 15 inches of wall against one more seat.
- [What Is a Pit Sectional? A Shape You Get Into, Not a Size](https://plushpick.com/blog/what-is-a-pit-sectional/): What is a pit sectional? Not a deeper seat: Wayfair's bands run 21 to 35+ inches and the example here is 27.5, right at the top of standard.
- [Types of Recliners: How the Choices Actually Combine](https://plushpick.com/blog/types-of-recliners/): Types of recliners are two choices, not seven categories: what the base does and how the chair opens. See how they stack, and why clearance comes from the model.
- [How to Choose a Sofa Color That Will Still Be That Color](https://plushpick.com/blog/how-to-choose-a-sofa-color/): How to choose a sofa color using two published numbers: a lightfastness rating on a 1 to 8 scale, and the LRV of the wall your swatch has to live against.
- [How to Make a Sofa Bed More Comfortable (and Still Close It)](https://plushpick.com/blog/how-to-make-a-sofa-bed-more-comfortable/): How to make a sofa bed more comfortable with the fix that matches the complaint: a board under the mattress for a bar, a 2-inch topper for a thin one.
