15 Best Leather Sofas to Class Up Your Space

The OGs of the online couch-shopping experience. It's easy to joke about Burrow's basic looks, but the couches are actually great. We've awarded the brand multiple honors, and this couch is one of its best offerings. The shape is simple. The cushions are the right amount of firm. In real life, the top-grain Italian leather looks phenomenal. The Nomad in any of the leather options is a classic look that works for any home.

Leather looks good in simple, classic shapes, but we really love when it's done up fun and funky. This Strato sofa from CB2, designed by Mermelada Estudio, is the perfect middle ground.

The sharp rectangular shape is clean and geometric, which gives the sofa a modern look. But the physical block-ness of the sofa means it commands the eye of a room. The vertical stitching mimics the shape of sitting on the couch, which has an oddly inviting effect. In person, it's our favorite to look at.

Add to that some of the best top-grain leather on this list—as well as a walnut base that makes it feel more organic—and you've got the perfect contemporary take on a modern Italian sofa.

When it comes to our favorite sofas, Arhaus is always near the top. The leather-sofa category is no different, as the brand has a handful of top models. Our favorite, though, is the Novato line.

It's mid-century in the ways that everyone loves—easy shape to sit on, easy shape to look at, easy shape to incorporate. That said, it looks distinctly different from the millions of mid-century-inspired sofas you can find at Target. This one is luxury. The leather is of a beautiful quality, with all the natural imperfections we love. The wood-plank frame lifts this sofa off the ground to make your space feel more open, but it also serves as a beautiful addition to the design. Add to that armrests that are the perfect height to balance lounging and proper sitting and you've got a winner. We love this sofa, and you will too.

This West Elm couch is a best seller for more reasons than one. First, this couch can be completely customized to your liking. You can choose the width (the option are 60", 76", and 89") as well as the leather color (there are 12 different hues), both of which allow you to be as creative as you please. Plus, it has a hardwood frame that makes this piece sturdy and durable.

What we liked, though, is that this couch is firm. (On a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the firmest, this is about a 4). It doesn't sag or squish over time, so the cushions are able to last as long as the leather. The bottom line is that this couch is great for any sophisticated space.

It feels weird to say, but our favorite chesterfield sofa is actually this one you can buy on Amazon. This Bowery Hill chesterfield hits all the classic style notes with those rolled arms, deep tufting, and nailhead trim. It's a reading-den or cigar-cave look, but we really like it in certain scenarios. And in spite of the retailer you're buying it from, we've found it to be an incredibly well-made, sturdy sofa. If you're into a classic look, this should be the sofa you get.

You know what? There's no shame in getting a reclining couch. This luxe recliner from West Elm is stylish, comfortable, and modern. You can lean back with the push of a button, meaning lazy days just got a whole better. On top of that, you can choose from four different leather finishes (black Ludlow leather, gray smoke Ludlow leather, navy Ludlow leather, and nut saddle leather), which lets you pick the perfect hue for your space.

Not to mention, this couch also has some pretty cool features, including armrests with hidden storage spaces (for remotes, books, magazines, and more) as well as a built-in USB port, which means you don't even have to get up if you need to charge your phone. In practice, it's the most practical sofa we've ever found. It's great for anyone that's going to be spending a lot of time with their couch.

This Crate and Barrel sofa gives you some of the best-quality leather on this list. Complete with deep seats and supersoft back cushions, this couch is ideal for anyone who likes to kick back and relax. Plus, it has two different seat-depth options (41" and 46"), as well as four different size options (73", 83", 93", and 105") and a few different leather finishes.

The leather on this sofa really is the standout, though. It's made from full-grain leather, which is the highest-quality and most durable grain you're going to find. It looks phenomenal, and it'll last longer than anything else out there.

A lot of sofas from highly acclaimed designers are way too conceptual and not at all practical. Mario Bellini's classic is one of the exceptions. It looks like it belongs in a gallery—with a price tag to match—but it's also just an insanely comfortable sofa.

This replica is done up in vintage leather from Eternity Modern. It's a seriously luxe place to lounge and a real conversation piece. Unless you have $20,000 to shell out for an original, this is the best you're going to find.

The only downside is that Eternity Modern doesn't list its leather grain on the two available leathers for this sofa. We've seen it in person, so we can guarantee it's good leather. But if you care about getting top-grain or full-grain leather, you'll have to do a special order.

Modular is the big trend in sofas at the moment. Every sofa can be configured in a million different ways, and you can buy pieces to suit your specific space. We really love this one from Urban Outfitters, in the L-shaped orientation shown.

The leather is recycled, which means it is going to be a bonded leather. It's still of good quality and will last a long time. All this is reflected in the price, which isn't dirt-cheap but also not as expensive as you'd expect from a brand like Urban Outfitters.

If you want a leather couch that you can sink into, look no further than this Pottery Barn classic. You can customize this couch to your liking by selecting the right size for your space (it comes in five different widths) as well as the leather finish you want (there are over 40 different options!) and how many seats you want (two or three). Plus, this couch has plush, cozy seats that are filled with down feathers and no-sag steel sinuous springs that provide cushion support. On top of that, this sofa has a timeless construction that'll complement any room in the house.

If you have a movie room that's begging to be used, all you need is this extra-large sofa. It features deep seats, plush cushions, and top-grain leather that's buttery smooth. The overall cushion comfort leans more toward soft than firm, which means you can sink into this couch with ease. Plus, it comes in two different leather finishes (caramel and warm taupe), and you can add an ottoman if you so choose.

What we love about this sofa is how easy it is to put together, a rarity in the furniture-in-a-box world. Once you have it assembled, the top-grain leather and firm cushions are a dream, the perfect place to curl up with a book or movie.

This two-in-one couch is the ultimate piece for any room in the house. First, this exclusive Crate and Barrel sofa is offered in ten different leather finishes, which means you can find the perfect shade for your space. Second, it easily pulls out into a roomy bed that up to three people (or four small children) can comfortably snooze on. On top of that, the cushions are firm enough that they won't sag over time yet soft enough that they're cozy to sit on.

According to one reviewer, "I bought this couch a year ago and it still looks new despite three little kids. It is easy to clean and very comfortable. I rotate the seat pillows every few months to make sure they get equal wear. Very happy with this purchase."

Upgrade your small living space with this chic piece. While it's categorized as a love seat, it offers just as much room to sit as a traditional small couch. On top of that, it features gorgeous genuine leather upholstery that gives it a natural aesthetic. It's built with a solid pinewood frame that's robust and strong, meaning it won't slip and slide on the floor. Additionally, the cushions are filled with foam and supported by coil springs and pocket springs to prevent sagging over time.

If you want a sleek, minimalistic sofa that's made with vegan leather to accompany your space, you can't go wrong with this fan-favorite from Albany Park. It features a gorgeous mid-century modern design that effortlessly adapts to any space. Each cushion is filled with plush feathers that are wrapped with foam, making this couch comfortable enough to sink into without being too squishy. On top of that, the distressed vegan-leather material is soft, buttery, and too nice to pass up.

According to one reviewer, "I love this sofa. The leather mid-century modern look was exactly what I was looking for. I love the supportive, firm cushions (comfy and cozy without trapping you). I get tons of compliments on it whenever friends come over."

If you want a leather couch but don't necessarily have the funds, that's okay. You can opt for a vegan-leather couch from Amazon that looks just as nice as the real deal. This affordable option comes in two colors (espresso brown and black) and is incredibly easy to assemble. On top of that, it has firm cushions that don't wear over time. Plus, the cushions are made of strong springs and a high-density sponge that makes this piece durable yet also comfortable and supportive.
