11 Cheap Sectional Couches Under $500 That Look Luxurious

It's not often that a sofa wider than 100 inches is less than $400, but this one—a whopping 107 inches wide—is on sale for just $376. With room for four people (one of whom can sprawl out with their legs kicked up on the chaise), this is a good find if you're looking to fill a larger space. We're also into the way Wayfair styled the sofa. Sectionals tend to create a sharp 90-degree angle where the chaise extends, so we like the idea of going with a round (rather than a square or rectangular) coffee table that disrupts all of the sharp and clean lines of the sofa. An acrylic one makes your room seem even more expansive.

It's hard to tell from the photo, but this creamy colored cheap sectional couch is covered in a soft linen fabric that makes it feel a bit beachy. If that's not your vibe, go with the cognac leather or gray polyester. No matter which material you choose, the sofa will feel the same: highly comfortable, courtesy of the thick spring foam cushions.

When we think of a traditional sectional sofa, the L-shape comes to mind, but we mustn't forget about the U-shaped alternative! If you have the space, we highly suggest going with a U because it offers even more space to spread out. Shape aside, our favorite element of this particular U-shaped one is the arms—or lack thereof. The "arms" are detachable pillows that are so cozy, you will likely fall asleep when lounging.

The best cheap sectional couches are the expensive ones that go on sale, like this Walsunny find that was originally nearly $700 but is on sale for less than $500. It comes in three additional colors, but we're partial to the dark gray pictured (although we'd say it's more of a denim color because there are hints of blue). The best thing about this sectional is the ottoman, which you can move around and use as storage. One reviewer says, "The reversible chaise is a splendid feature that affords me the flexibility to alter the arrangement of my living room at will."

There's something about an emerald green velvet sofa that feels luxurious. Case in point: this DHP sectional, which used to come in five shades but has sold out in three of them. Luckily, the emerald is still up for grabs, so don't miss out. At just 81.5 inches wide, it's a good find for small living rooms if you don't want to sacrifice your sense of comfort.

Wayfair's Renner sectional comes in 10 colors, all of which are under $500, so if the dark gray isn't speaking to you, you have plenty of additional options to consider. Full disclosure: The cushions are on the firmer side, so if you're someone who likes to sink into your couch, this may not be the one for you. Otherwise, give it a go and enjoy the extra support. One reviewer says, "LOVE IT!! The seat cushions are PERFECT! The back pillows are just comfortable enough, but I am going to add stuffing to them for a better feel and fuller look. I couldn’t have chosen better for this price!!"

We don't like to pick favorites, but sometimes a gorgeous sofa comes our way and we can't help ourselves. This Etta Avenue sectional sofa comes in four colors, including this cool-toned gray. We wouldn't expect it to pair well with yellow gold, but here we are. It's also as cozy as it is glamorous: The cushions are filled with foam and supported by eight-way hand-tied springs that resist sagging, so you can count on it gracing your living room for a few years.

If you've learned one thing about the House Beautiful shopping editors, it's probably our obsession with modular furniture. This sofa—like all modular furniture—is sold in pieces, leaving you in charge of both its size and configuration. So opt for as few as one piece or as many as eight. "Amazon never ceases to amaze me. First the couches were delivered at the earliest possible delivery date which was very fast, I got them in like a week. Very easy to assemble only 8 screws with an Allen wrench (each piece)," one reviewer shares. Comfort is probably 8/10 but you can add filling for more fluff. I enjoy that you can use them as accent pieces or make an actual sectional. I hope this was helpful in making your final decision!"

First, how beautiful is this aqua? Second, it's only 81.5 inches wide, so it can tuck neatly into any small space. If, for whatever reason, the chaise doesn't work, just swap it to the other side. You may have to assemble it, but all of the pieces ship in one box, making it hassle-free. "I have a small house and this couch is perfect. I put it together in 2 hours by myself…The fabric is soft, no weird smells. The box weighed about 270lbs so that was tough getting inside but the directions are easy to follow so I have no complaints. Can’t wait to take naps on it. I hope this couch lasts us for years to come," a reviewer says.

This versatile L-shaped sectional sofa may come in only one color, but it's so neutral that it pairs well with pretty much everything. Not only is it a universally easy color fabric, but it is fade- and pill-resistant. Best of all, it's highly cozy courtesy of the sponge fill. If you want to spice it up a bit, go with a set of patterned, colorful throw pillows and a neutral-toned blanket.

Available in three colors, this Winado sofa is a sizable find that happens to be almost 50 percent off. Dreamy blue fabric aside, this is a special sectional because it has super-deep seats that kind of force you to sit back and relax. The best part? You won't need any tools to put this four-person couch together. One reviewer says, "Perfect! Not too hard to put together and very comfortable and stylish!"
