The failure point for a sectional this size is almost never the living room. It is the front door, the turn at the top of the stairs, or a lift that is 47 inches deep. A one piece frame either goes through or it goes back on the van.

This sectional ships as four boxes, each holding one module's frame, feet and cushions. The biggest thing you carry is one seat module rather than a 127 inch sofa, and because the parts unbolt again the same is true the day you move out.

Four seats and a chaise

The studio shot. Count the tufted panels and the seat count is obvious: four across the run plus the chaise turned out at the left end. Each module carries its own pair of legs, which is why a sofa this long does not need a rail underneath to stop it dipping in the middle.

Every figure on one drawing

One hundred and twenty-seven inches along the wall, 51 out into the room, 31.5 high. The seat run is 118 inches at 25.5 deep, 18 inches off the floor. The chaise is 46.5 by 29.5, back cushions 17, arms 24.5 high and 5 thick, bolsters 20 by 6, legs 6.5. Six hundred and sixty pounds is printed over each seat.

The section that charges things

The steel backrest is shown open from two angles. The maker lists USB ports, a three hole socket, a fixing knob and hidden storage space, with a line underneath telling you to take the seat cushion out to reach the box. Nothing about it is visible once the cushions are back on.

Four layouts from the same parts

The combination panel shows the chaise at the left, at the right, tucked into the middle as a corner, and pulled clear as a standalone seat. Because the armrests, backrests and frames are separate parts, changing layout is a matter of hardware rather than a new sofa.

Inside 127 inches of overall width, because the arms are only 5 inches thick each.

Printed over each of the four seats, which is 2640 lb across the sectional. A static rating.

By 29.5 inches wide, and the combination panel shows it fitted at either end or used separately.

A three hole socket and USB ports in the steel backrest. It plugs into a wall outlet like any extension.

A box behind the back cushion. The maker notes that the seat cushion has to come out first.

Boxes A, B, E and D, shipped separately and not always arriving on the same day.

Four seats plus a chaise seats a family of five without anyone taking the floor or dragging in a dining chair.

Fifty-one inches out from the wall is the figure people get wrong. Tape it on the floor and walk the gap before ordering.

It comes apart to four modules, so the next flat is a question of hardware rather than a removal firm and a window.

What we stand behind

• Every dimension and the 660 lb per seat figure are read from the manufacturer's own product size drawing.
• The socket is an outlet built into the sofa, not a power source. No electrical rating, voltage or USB output is published, so none is quoted.
• No fabric composition percentage, foam density, carton dimensions, assembly time or net weight is published, so none is quoted.
• Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
• 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

How many boxes actually arrive?

Four, labelled A, B, E and D. They are shipped as separate parcels and the maker warns they may not land on the same day. Each one holds a module with its own frame, feet and cushions, so nothing is missing from an early box, but the sofa cannot be built until all four are in.

Will it fit up my stairs?

Carton sizes are not published, so measure against the finished depth of a single module, which is 31 inches, rather than the 127 inch overall width. A module travels on its side. The tightest point is almost always a stair turn or a lift, not the front door.

Can the chaise go on the right?

Yes. The combination panel shows four arrangements, including chaise left, chaise right, chaise used as a middle corner and chaise pulled away as a separate seat. The armrests, backrests and frames are all separate parts.

Does the socket need plugging in?

Yes. It is an outlet mounted in the steel backrest, wired to a lead that goes to a wall socket. What you gain is one tidy cable running to the sofa rather than an adapter block on the floor behind it.
