It features a classic, versatile style with a comfortable high back, multiple length and depth options, and quality leather in a huge range of colors and finishes.

The leather may show noticeable scratches and wear, particularly if you have kids or pets.
For quality, simplicity, and versatility, it’s hard to beat the Pottery Barn Turner Square Arm Leather Sofa. With its classic, slightly angular profile, it’s a shape that can seamlessly blend in with a range of design preferences and styles. The back is high enough to be supportive for most people, and the sofa comes in two different seat cushion depths for added comfort.
For the most part, the couch is made from natural materials, including natural top-grain leather and solid birch wood legs. Only the cushion fills are polyester, and even those are wrapped in down blend. Natural leather does sometimes show scratching, though, so be careful with lighter colors or if you have kids or pets.
The sheer variety of choices is where this sofa really shines. It offers the “usual” customization options — like nailhead trims — but the impressive part is the number of upholstery options. Pottery Barn offers over 40 different leathers, in a variety of colors (all aniline-dyed), textures, and finishes. Leather sofas don’t have to look like your grandpa’s giant, worn-down, dark brown couch, and this sofa shows just how stylish they can be when you make them your own.
Dimensions: 64.5” to 103.5” W x 38.5” to 44.5” D x 35” H | Colors: 45 | Seat Fill: Polyester foam core wrapped in down blend | Leather Type: Top-grain leather, aniline-dyed

It’s a sleek, mid-century modern sofa that has an affordable price point despite being made from real leather.
-
There are only two color options, and the sofa’s legs may be small for a couch of this size and style.
Finding a leather couch when you’re on a budget can be a struggle, as most “budget” leather sofas are actually made from artificial leather, rather than the real deal. That being said, the All Modern Geo Genuine Leather Sofa manages to subvert expectations by being both budget-friendly (compared to other leather sofas) and the real deal. It features a stylish, mid-century modern look, with an angular frame combined with cylindrical pillows. The materials, including a solid wood frame and leather upholstery, are genuine and natural, and its dimensions should allow most people to sit comfortably.
This sofa’s affordability, though, does come with a few details that aren’t quite as impressive. The legs are solid wood like the frame, but they look spindly in comparison to the rest of the sofa. Additionally, there are only two color options, and the entire seat is a single cushion, which can affect the sofa’s longevity since you can’t swap it around with other seats. It’s not the most luxurious sofa, but it’s a great choice to combine authenticity with affordability.
Dimensions: 84” W x 37” D x 34” H | Colors: 2 | Seat Fill: Foam | Leather Type: Genuine leather
