We would honestly say that it has the perfect balance between looks and comfort!
WEST ELM SOFA MOVIE
We both rank it 8 out of 10 because of the low back, we wouldn’t say it’s the BEST movie night kind of couch or anything, but it is plenty comfortable. The “standard” depth of 40 inches is pretty deep, to begin with, and they do offer an EVEN deeper version (46 inches), but the standard would probably be deep enough for an average-sized person. This is NOT the case for the Andes!Įven though it’s not down-filled, it’s still comfortable to lounge around in because of how deep it is. We tried out some sectionals from other stores at higher price points that had the sleek modern look that we wanted but were super stiff and so uncomfortable. COMFORT: 8 out of 10Īt first, we were hesitant about the low back and whether the couch would be comfortable since it looks like it COULD be on the stiffer side. We’ve been very impressed with how the fabric has held up and it really looks great even after how much it’s used every day! The West Elm Andes has removable cushion covers, which makes cleaning easy. After a machine wash on delicate, the material still looked as good as new. The Andes sofa does have removable cushion covers, which came in handy when we needed to wash the cover after our friend’s dog peed on it. We do have a cat who likes to sometimes use the sofa as a scratching post and amazingly, it has never snagged! We did notice a little bit of pilling on just a few areas, but because the stone twill fabric has a heathered look to it, it’s not noticeable. Otherwise, the cushions may start to look a little saggy in areas where you sit the most. So far, after almost 2 years of daily use and entertaining guests every week, we’re happy to report that the fabric has worn very well!Īs with ANY couch, rotating the cushions regularly helps it to wear evenly and we highly recommend doing this for both the back and bottom cushions.


We ended up choosing one of the “quick ship” options in TWILL STONE which is a light gray color.

There are many fabrics to choose from and you’re able to order free fabric swatches from their website. We love the sleek look of the Andes Sofa! FABRIC & WEAR: GOOD In our home, we have the sectional up against the wall, but it definitely looks amazing from the back too especially because of its low-profile look.Īs far as style goes, it was exactly what we were looking for, and still love the look today! We absolutely love its modern and minimal style and were immediately drawn to its unique sleek, black metal legs. This kind of style would be great in a small space or apartment since it has an airy and minimal look. It has a slim and low-back profile, so it doesn’t look bulky at all or take up too much space visually. West Elm Andes L-Shaped Sectional in our Living Room STYLE: modern & minimal
