How deep is a deep sectional?
The depth of a sofa or sectional refers to the distance from the backrest to the front edge of the seat. While there is no standard measurement for what constitutes a "deep" sofa, it is generally considered to be anything over 40 inches. They’re easy to spot, too: the surface area is wider, almost like a bed — you tend to feel invited to plunge right in at the sight of one.
Is a deep sofa better than a regular one?
The answer to this question ultimately depends on personal preference and the intended use of the sofa. A deep sofa may be more comfortable for those who like to lounge and sink into their furniture, while a regular one may be more suitable for those who prefer a firmer seat. The more time you spend on your living room seat, the more you’ll probably like deeper seats: alternating positions and stretching legs are easier the deeper you go.

What is the ideal depth for a sofa?
Again, this can vary depending on individual preferences. However, most experts recommend a depth between 36-40 inches for a standard sofa and 40-45 inches for a deep sofa. It is important to consider the overall dimensions of the room and how much space you have available before choosing the ideal depth for your sofa.
What is the 2/3 sofa rule and how does it apply to deep sofas?
The 2/3 sofa rule is a design principle that states the sofa should take up about 2/3 of the room's width. This rule can be applied to both regular and deep sofas, but it is especially important to consider for deep sofas due to their larger dimensions. Of course, it also applies to sectionals (not just sofas)!

Should I opt for a deep seat sofa or a standard one?
If you are someone who enjoys lounging and sinking into your furniture, a deep seat sofa may be more suitable for you. However, if you prefer a firmer seat or have limited space in your room, a standard sofa may be a better choice. It’s really up to you to decide which one fits your lifestyle and space the best!
