9 Best Cloud Sofa Alternatives for Your Home

If you’re looking for a deep, comfortable sofa where you can stretch out and relax, the RH Cloud is likely one of the options you’ve considered. Its oversized cushions and relaxed look make it appealing for a living room you use every day.

However, we’ve often heard from owners who find the cushions need frequent fluffing and repositioning, or that the low, soft seating feels better for stretching out than sitting upright.

There are also other sofas that have a similar shape and soft, loose cushions, some that use feather-and-down blends for a sinking-in feel, while others use foam and synthetic fill. You can also find options with washable covers, cushions that need less frequent fluffing, or dimensions that fit your room more comfortably.

In this guide, we’ll look at some of the best Cloud sofa alternatives, what each offers, and what to consider before choosing one for your home.

1. Adorn Croft Ben French Daybed Sofa

Our Ben French Daybed Sofa is worth considering if you like the generous seating of the RH Cloud but want a more colorful, daybed-style design that you can arrange around your living room.

The Ben combines individual seats, corner pieces, and cushion mats with removable, adjustable back supports. You can bring the pieces together for family seating or separate them to create smaller lounging areas.

At Adorn Croft, we can use the Ben’s existing design as a starting point and customize the dimensions, upholstery, and configuration for your home. We’ll work through those choices with you before production rather than asking you to figure everything out on your own. 

Arrange the Pieces Around How You Use the Room

The Ben’s listed set includes four single-seater modules, two corner pieces, and three mats. Its modules can stand independently, so you do not need to position the sofa against a wall for support. 

You can start with that arrangement or ask us to plan a different configuration. We’ll discuss how many people need somewhere to sit and how the sofa will fit around your coffee table, walkways, and other furniture.

You might prefer a long arrangement where several family members can stretch out, or separate groups of seats and daybeds for a room you often use for entertaining.

For your custom Ben, we can also adjust the dimensions of the individual pieces. That gives us more flexibility when a standard module would extend into a walkway or leave an awkward gap.

Proportions and Comfort Planned Around You

You might want room to curl up, a higher seat that feels easier to get out of, or seating that lets you sit upright without your feet leaving the floor.

When planning your Ben modular sofa, we’ll discuss how you prefer to sit and what you find comfortable about your current furniture. We can adjust the seat height and depth alongside the overall dimensions, rather than treating a larger sofa as automatically more comfortable. 

But because of it’s modular functionality, you have the freedom to stack them up and create you own configurations yourself. Our customers love to get creative and even add daybed modules to create an inviting U-shape sectional.

You can also add a wood base beneath the modules to lift the seating off the ground while keeping the Ben’s daybed-style appearance.

The Ben’s modules use high-resilience foam wrapped in batting. Our standard cushion cores have a density of 2.81 pounds per cubic foot, and we’ll confirm the construction for your order before production. 

When avoiding frequent cushion fluffing is a priority, tell us during the design consultation. We’ll discuss the cushion construction available for your custom build, your preferred firmness, and the upkeep you can expect.

Choose Colors and Fabrics That Feel at Home in Your Living Room

You do not have to order the Ben in the fabric combinations shown in its product photos.

We offer more than 1,500 upholstery options, including performance velvets, corduroy, jacquard, and linen. You can use one fabric throughout or choose different colors and patterns for the seats, backrests, and mats. 

For example, you might keep the main seating in a soft neutral and introduce a pattern on the lower cushions. Or you might choose a warmer, richer color that works with the wood furniture and rug you already own.

We also accept customer-supplied material, which we’ll review for suitability before using it on your sofa. 

Our complimentary Love-It Fabric Kit includes up to 20 swatches delivered to your door. You can feel the textures and see the colors alongside your flooring, curtains, and other furniture before deciding. 

The Ben’s modules also have removable covers, so you can change their appearance without replacing the whole sofa. We’ll discuss the care requirements for your chosen fabric, since removable covers are not necessarily machine-washable. 

Review Your Ben Before We Make It

Send us your room measurements, photos of your existing furniture, and any details you would like to change about the Ben.

We’ll help you work through the proposed layout and fabric choices, then provide a complimentary 2D mockup so you can review the design before it is made. 

Before production begins, we’ll confirm the dimensions, materials, and configuration, including the custom details agreed upon during your consultation. 

An Agreed Timeline for Your Custom Sofa

We’ll confirm the production schedule and expected shipping time before you commit to your order, with production and delivery discussed separately. 

Our payments are split into two stages: 50% due to begin production, and the remaining balance due before shipment, once you are satisfied with the finished piece. 

Our shipments are insured, with customs duties, tariffs, and import taxes included in the order. We’ll confirm the delivery arrangements for your location before your Ben ships. 

Support That Continues Years After Delivery

Our relationship with you continues after your Ben arrives. Whether you have questions about caring for the upholstery, need replacement covers, or want to discuss a repair years later, our team remains available.

That is what we mean by lifetime after-sales support. We handle repairs and replacements according to the applicable warranty terms, and we can also help arrange paid work outside warranty coverage.

2. 7th Avenue Modular Sofa

The 7th Avenue Modular Sofa is worth considering if you want deep seating with covers you can wash at home. The covers on the cushions, arms, back, and base are removable and machine-washable, and replacement covers let you change the upholstery without replacing the whole sofa.

Its cushions use down alternative with layers of memory foam and high-resiliency foam. This gives you a different cushion construction from the RH Cloud’s feather-and-down-over-foam design. 

You can also adjust the back cushions by removing fill for a softer feel or adding the brand’s complimentary fill to make them firmer.

With the back cushions in place, the Classic configuration has a seat depth of approximately 22–24 inches, while the Extra-Deep version offers 30–32 inches. The Classic is worth trying if you spend more time sitting upright; the Extra-Deep gives you more space to curl up or stretch out.

The three-seat sofa comes in a standard 132-inch width, with a narrower 108-inch Slim version also available. Modular components allow you to change the arrangement or add seating as your space changes.

For households concerned about spills, the washable, replaceable covers are a practical reason to consider 7th Avenue. 

However, the deeper configurations take up considerable floor space, and the cushion construction shouldn’t be taken as a promise that it will feel exactly like the RH Cloud.

3. Sundays Movie Night Sofa

The Sundays Movie Night Sofa has generous cushions and a relaxed, slipcovered appearance that make it a natural option to consider alongside the RH Cloud. Its seat cushions combine a foam core with a feather-and-fiber blend that gives you a soft layer to settle into when watching television or stretching out.

The Standard three-piece sofa measures 114 inches wide and 38 inches deep, with a seat depth of 26 inches. That gives you room to curl up while keeping the overall depth below some of the larger lounge-style sofas. 

The modular pieces attach with connectors, and you can rearrange or add components as your seating needs change. Removable covers extend to the frame and cushions, while reversible cushions let you rotate the surfaces you use most often. 

The Cream Linen version uses Sundays’ washable LiveLife fabric; follow the care instructions for the upholstery you select.

The main consideration is cushion upkeep. Sundays recommends fluffing and flipping the cushions to maintain their shape, so expect regular attention to keep the sofa looking full and inviting.

4. Adorn Croft Petal Sofa

Our Petal Sofa is an option for homeowners who want comfortable lounging with more flexibility in the backrests and arms. Its petal-shaped upholstered sections give it a sculptural appearance, and the adjustable upper sections let you change their position depending on how you want to sit or stretch out.

The backrests and armrests can recline and adjust individually. If you like to sit upright while reading, then lean back or lie across the sofa later, those adjustments give you more control over the seating position.

Petal uses a metal structure with high-density memory foam, polyurethane, and synthetic wadding. Its construction differs from the RH Cloud’s feather-and-down cushions, so it’s worth considering for its adjustable design and foam cushioning, but don’t expect the same sinking-in feel.

The featured Brown Set includes a single seat, a small corner seat, and a large corner seat. We can customize the dimensions, seat shapes, and number of petals to develop a layout for your room. You can also choose the upholstery, whether you prefer a warm neutral or a stronger color that makes the sofa a focal point.

The covers are removable, though the cleaning method depends on the fabric you choose. We can discuss those care requirements with you before you order.

Petal is particularly worth considering if you want adjustable support and a distinctive shape. We’ll help you plan the configuration around your room and the ways you expect to use it.

5. Crate & Barrel Unwind Sofa

The Crate & Barrel Unwind Sofa has a low frame, slim arms, and loose cushions for a relaxed look. Its generous proportions make it worth considering if you want space to stretch out and like the look of a slipcovered sofa.

The cushions contain a polyfiber-and-feather blend, supported by sinuous coil suspension and a birch-and-engineered-wood frame. The reviewed model’s upholstery combines cotton, linen, and viscose for a textured finish.

Unwind comes in several sizes and modular arrangements. The three-piece straight configuration measures about 148 inches wide and 44.5 inches deep, so it needs plenty of room. Smaller sofa options are also available, along with sectionals and ottomans that let you create a larger lounging area.

The covers are removable, and Crate & Barrel now lists replacement slipcovers for the sofa and individual sectional components. However, the Ghent linen-blend covers require dry cleaning. If you’re looking for covers you can put in your washing machine, that care requirement may rule it out.

You should also expect regular cushion maintenance. Crate & Barrel recommends frequent fluffing to restore the loft and notes that some feather migration is normal.

Unwind is a good candidate if you enjoy low seating and soft, loose cushions and are comfortable with the cleaning and upkeep involved. Try it in person if possible to check whether the seat height and depth suit you.

6. Sixpenny Neva Sofa

The Sixpenny Neva Sofa is worth considering if you like soft, loose cushions and a relaxed slipcovered design. Its simple shape gives you room to introduce texture through the upholstery, whether you want a neutral sofa or a more distinctive fabric.

Neva offers Feather Down or vegan Poly Fill. The Feather Down option includes feathers, down, and a small amount of poly fiber, while the Poly Fill is designed to create a similar fluffy feel without feathers. The seat cushions combine loose fill with foam layers, allowing you to settle into the cushion while retaining support underneath.

Sixpenny explains that the loose filling moves during use and recommends periodic fluffing to maintain the cushions. Expect a casually rumpled appearance between adjustments, especially in the seats you use most often. 

The slipcovered design also makes fabric selection an important part of the purchase. Check the cleaning instructions for the upholstery you choose before assuming the covers can go into a washing machine.

Neva is a good alternative if you want a soft seat and are comfortable with the look and care of loose-fill cushions.

7. West Elm Harmony Sofa

The West Elm Harmony Sofa combines a low frame with soft cushions and loose pillows. With widths ranging from 66 to 104 inches, it gives you several ways to bring that relaxed look into a room without committing to a large sectional.

The seat cushions have fiber-wrapped foam cores, while the back cushions contain polyester fiber, duck feathers, and duck down. West Elm rates Harmony a 1 on its five-point firmness scale, with 5 being the firmest. 

That makes it a candidate for anyone who prefers a very soft seat, though trying it in person will help you judge whether it provides enough support.

Harmony also needs some routine care. West Elm recommends periodic cushion fluffing and spot cleaning, with professional cleaning for stains you can’t remove at home. If washable covers are a priority, factor those instructions into your decision.

Its main appeal is the combination of softness and size choice, particularly if you want a conventional sofa layout for a smaller living room.

8. Albany Park Kova Pillow Sofa

The Albany Park Kova Pillow Sofa brings together deep seating, a modular frame, and plump pillow cushions. 

The 122-inch version offers a broad lounging area for stretching out or sharing the sofa during movie nights, although you will need to measure carefully before choosing that size.

Its cushions use a vegan filling that Albany Park describes as hypoallergenic. This makes it an option for shoppers who want a soft, relaxed sofa without feather-and-down cushions. 

When comparing configurations, make sure you’re selecting the Kova Pillow version, since Albany Park also sells a Kova Box model with a more tailored cushion shape.

The pillow cushions still need occasional fluffing to maintain their shape. The washable covers can simplify cleaning, but you should also be comfortable with that regular cushion upkeep.

9. Adorn Croft Iris Outdoor Deep Seat Sofa

If you want a spacious sofa for relaxing on your patio or terrace, our Iris Outdoor Sofa brings deep, daybed-style seating outdoors. Its modular cushions and teak platforms give you room to stretch out, with a layout you can plan around your space.

You can purchase the modules together or separately, and we can customize their size and shape. That flexibility lets you create a shared seating area or arrange smaller groups around your patio. Back supports can also be made fixed or adjustable, depending on how you prefer to sit.

Iris uses a different construction from our indoor colorful sofas. To handle the weather, we use specialized outdoor foam, quick-drying Dacron wraps, and a special breathable mesh bottom that lets water drain straight through. Instead of trapping water inside, it dries out fast, keeping mold out and the cushion comfortable to sit on.

For an exposed patio, you can also discuss cushion care and storage options with us before ordering. The amount of sun and rain your seating receives will help guide the fabric choice and how you look after it.

Iris suits homeowners who want generous outdoor seating with more freedom over the colors and arrangement. We’ll help you work through the dimensions and materials, with ongoing support available after delivery.

What to Consider When Choosing a Cloud Sofa Alternative

If you are looking for a Cloud Sofa alternative, you may want more space to stretch out, cushions that hold their shape better, or upholstery that is easier to clean.

Here are a few factors to consider: 

Seat Depth and Sitting Comfort

A deep seat gives you room to curl up or sit with your legs tucked underneath you. If you prefer sitting upright with your feet on the floor, that same depth may leave you reaching for an extra back pillow.

Check the usable seat depth alongside the overall dimensions. The frame and back cushions take up part of the sofa’s depth, so two similarly sized sofas can offer different amounts of sitting space. Measure a sofa you already find comfortable and use it as a reference.

Consider how easily you can sit down and stand up, especially when a low seat also has very soft cushions.

Cushion Filling and Support

Feather-and-down blends can provide a soft, sinking feel, while foam cores can add structure. Many sofas combine materials, and seat cushions may have a different construction than back cushions.

A feather-free cushion can still feel soft and need regular fluffing. Look at the full cushion construction and the manufacturer’s care instructions rather than assuming one type of filling will always be firmer or easier to maintain.

If you can try the sofa, sit in the positions you use at home for more than a few moments. Notice whether you feel supported once you have settled into the cushions.

Fluffing and Everyday Upkeep

Loose cushions can shift, flatten, or look rumpled with use. Consider whether you are comfortable adjusting them regularly, particularly if several people use the sofa every day.

Ask whether the seat and back cushions can be flipped or rotated, and whether replacement inserts are available. Those details matter if one seat gets much more use than the others.

Upholstery and Cleaning

Check the cleaning instructions for the exact fabric you intend to order. Removable covers may require professional cleaning, and machine-washable covers may need to air dry.

For a family sofa, consider the spills, pet hair, and everyday dirt you are likely to deal with. Ask what the brand means by “performance fabric” and request swatches so you can assess the texture and color at home.

Also check whether you can purchase replacement covers separately. That could be useful if a cover becomes damaged or you want to update the upholstery later.

Size, Layout, and Delivery Access

Measure the sofa’s full footprint, including an ottoman or chaise, and leave space to walk through the room comfortably. Painter’s tape on the floor can help you see how much space the arrangement will occupy.

With a modular sofa, check which pieces can be rearranged and how they connect. Some layouts depend on specific corner or arm modules.

Measure doorways, hallways, stairs, and elevators, too. Compare those measurements with the delivery dimensions, which may differ from the assembled sofa’s size.

Total Cost and Support After Delivery

Compare prices for the complete configuration and upholstery you want. A starting price may cover a smaller arrangement or a different fabric from the one pictured.

Before ordering, confirm delivery and assembly charges, the agreed timeline, and the return terms for your selection. Custom and made-to-order pieces may have different cancellation or return conditions.

Ask what support is available if you need a replacement cushion, cover, or component years later. Read the warranty separately, so you understand what it covers and how that differs from ongoing aftersales assistance.
