+Chaise, corner group or U shape
The three shapes solve different problems. A chaise sofa is the lightest touch, a standard sofa with one end extended to stretch out on, which suits a room where a full corner would feel heavy. A corner group is the classic L shape, built from a longer run and a shorter one meeting at a corner box, and it seats more people properly rather than perching them.
U shaped groups go further again, wrapping three sides and turning the sofa into the room's whole seating plan. They need real floor space to work, but in a large open-plan room or a snug used for films they're unbeatable. The Heath range even includes a U shaped cinema chaise with a matching stool. If you're weighing the options, our corner sofa guide is worth ten minutes before you commit.
Left hand or right hand facing, and how to get it right
This is the one decision people most often get wrong, and it's worth slowing down for. Handedness is described as you look at the sofa from the front of the room: on a left hand facing design the arm sits on your left, with the long return running away to the right. Every corner group here specifies which is which.
The practical test is to stand where the sofa will go and work out which wall the long side needs to follow, then check that the short return doesn't block a door, a radiator or a walkway. Measuring the route in as well as the space itself saves a great deal of grief on delivery day. Our sofa measuring guide covers doorways, stairs and tight turns. A couple of ranges sidestep the decision entirely: the Chiltern chaise designs are reversible, so the chaise can sit either end.
Extras worth knowing about
Several corner groups can be specified with a sofa bed built into one section, which turns the room into an occasional guest room without a second piece of furniture. The Cleveland, Wickham and Pavia ranges all offer this, and sofa beds collects every option together.
If a fixed shape feels too committing, the Marsden range spans large and XL corner groups alongside chaise designs in the same cover, and the Alston range offers its corner sofa as separate units you can rearrange later. Modular sofas takes that idea further, and a footstool in a matching cover finishes the group off.
