Chaise Sectionals

Stretch Out and Relax with Chaise Sectionals

Chaise sectionals are among the most popular and versatile living room configurations at Furniture Fair. Combining the generous seating of a full sofa with the extended comfort of a chaise lounge, these pieces allow you to put your feet up, stretch out, and relax without requiring separate ottomans or taking over the entire room. Discover fabric, leather, reversible, and power chaise sectionals crafted for Midwest homes across Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana.

Whether you need a compact two-piece sectional for an apartment or an expansive L-shaped configuration for open-concept entertaining, our showroom designers help you calculate exact room clearances, choose between left-facing and right-facing chaises, and select durable performance fabrics tailored to your household routines.

Ryan Storts, Cold Spring Store Manager at Furniture Fair

"The number one thing people get backwards is orientation: Left-Facing versus Right-Facing is always determined standing in front of the sectional looking directly at it, NOT sitting in it. The last thing you want is a chaise cutting right across your main walkway into the kitchen or hallway. Give yourself at least 36 inches of clear walking space around the perimeter, and your living room will feel twice as big."

How to Choose the Right Chaise Sectional Orientation

Choosing the correct orientation ensures smooth room circulation, balanced sightlines, and convenient access to entryways:

Reversible Chaises

Ideal for apartments, condos, and frequent redecorators. A floating ottoman and elongated reversible seat cushion allow you to switch the chaise from left to right in minutes as room layouts shift.

  • Maximum layout versatility
  • Compact room footprints
  • Easy hallway move-in access

Dedicated Stationary Chaises

Built as a dedicated two-piece frame (LAF or RAF) with a reinforced corner joint. Delivers seamless cushion stability, deeper lounge depths, and tailored tailored upholstery lines.

  • Seamless cushion foundation
  • Deeper seating proportions
  • Available in 100+ designer fabrics

Power Motion & Storage Chaises

Pairs an extended chaise lounge with motorized power recliners on adjacent seats, or includes hidden hydraulic lift storage beneath the chaise cushion for blankets and pillows.

  • Hydraulic lift-top hidden storage
  • Integrated power recline on sofa seats
  • Dual USB charging convenience

Space Planning Tips for Chaise Sectionals

Before selecting your chaise sectional, verify your floor plan against these key layout considerations:

  • Focal Point Alignment: Position the chaise on the side of the room opposite your television or fireplace so the elevated back doesn't obstruct natural sightlines.
  • Walkway Clearance: Ensure at least 30 to 36 inches of clearance between the end of the chaise and your walls, coffee table, or entertainment console to maintain open traffic flow.
  • Window and Register Clearance: Avoid positioning a heavy chaise directly over floor heating registers or flush against low window trim to protect proper room air circulation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Chaise Sectionals

Orientation is always determined while standing in front of the sofa looking directly at it, not while seated in it. On a Right-Arm Facing (RAF) sectional, the chaise extends on your right side. On a Left-Arm Facing (LAF) sectional, the chaise extends on your left side.

A reversible chaise uses a movable ottoman base with an extended cushion that can be flipped and positioned on either the left or right side of the sofa frame, providing adaptable layout flexibility if you rearrange or move.

We recommend maintaining at least 30 to 36 inches of clear walkway space between the edge of the extended chaise and any coffee table, wall, doorway, or heating register to prevent traffic bottlenecks.

Yes. Compact 2-piece chaise sectionals typically measure between 85 and 98 inches wide, delivering deep lounging comfort and ample seating without the massive floor footprint of a U-shaped configuration.

Many of our chaise models feature lift-top storage compartments under the chaise cushion, providing an ideal hidden spot for extra throw pillows, blankets, and living room accessories.
