These are the coziest and most stylish sofas for every budget.

Shopping for a couch can be tricky. While you can head to a local furniture store, they may have a small stock and limited styles and colors.

But buying online can pose its own challenges—everyone who's bought a mattress on Amazon knows what I mean. Without seeing it in person before purchasing, you may not be happy with the depth, height, or width once it's delivered. Plus, you can't get a real feel of the fabric.

Navigating through a sea of options, a limited sensory experience, and the constant battle of deciphering colors and textures on a screen—that's what makes buying a couch online hard, says Bilal Rehman, interior designer and CEO of Bilal Rehman Studio. But if you're patient and willing to put in a little extra effort to sift through online reviews, the process can also be pretty fun. Besides, most couches often come with a return policy. So if worse comes to worst, you can opt for an exchange.

Buying a couch is a big (and often pricey) purchase, so you want to make sure you do your research before pulling the trigger. To help you out, here's a roundup of the 20 most comfortable couches with every budget in mind, according to rave reviews.

This couch may be the coziest on the list. Fluffy and beyond soft, the modular style is also super modern. If you loved splashing on to bean bags as a teen, this is probably the adult version of that.

Rave Review: "It's a beautiful couch and was delivered very quickly. This would be a perfect asset to an office or peerspace to add a chic modern touch!"

Not only does the fabric couch have two chaises, but it's made with high-resilience memory foam, too. Translation: It's comfy and cozy. Plus, it's sleek enough to fit into any aesthetic.

Rave Review: "It is comfy and [made from] memory foam so it is nice to sleep on. It's also a great size. The material is more durable than I thought and it has velcro to keep cushions in place. The color was very nice, too."

Talk about soft! This lambswool sofa has pillow-like cushions for an extra fluffy feel. Plus, the cushions are extra deep—perfect for taking naps during your next Netflix binge.

Rave Review: "Most beautiful piece of furniture I’ve ever owned. It fits perfectly in smaller spaces, but still feels large and luxurious. It's firm, but VERY comfortable. I would scotch-guard immediately to keep it pristine. Looks like pillows but feels like a couch. BUY BUY BUY."

Looking for a sofa to sink into? This couch (which comes in four different colors) has ultra-deep seat cushions that are filled with down for a super cozy feel.

Rave Review: "This couch exceeded expectations. For the price it was, it’s very comfortable and well-made. The couch arms also have cushioning and are shaped in a way where you can put cups and bowls on top of them and they will hold it without risk of slipping, which is perfect if you like eating dinner on the couch like I do."

Modular couches are perfect for plenty of space and hidden storage. This one has plenty of both, and its sections can be rearranged into any shape you want to fit your space.

Rave Review: "This is amazing...If you're planning to move, it’s great, since you won’t need a truck to move it. If you get tired of the look of your living room, you can just change the layout. It has plenty of storage and is super comfortable."

Need an extra large couch? This one has two chaise lounges, so you won't have to fight anymore for the comfiest spot on the couch. It's also super plush and made with velvet upholstery for a dreamy feel.

Rave Review: "This is a beautiful vivid color—perfect sofa!!! I couldn't ask for better. Perfect length. It's the perfect texture. I am so pleased and even impressed on how they packaged it. Easy to put together."

This super soft chenille couch has a detachable sofa cover so you can wash it when spills happen. It also has extra-wide arm rests that are ideal for laptop work (or space for your morning coffee).

Rave Review: "I was completely in love with how comfortable this couch was and how easy it was to put together."

Velvet is a luxurious textile to add to your living space. With rounded legs and sloped arms, this couch is equally stylish and comfy. There's also an option to buy a matching accent chair because why not?

Rave Review: "I looked for two months [for] a good small couch to get for my place. This couch is very comfortable...It’s something I could sit on and watch TV for a while. The velvet is super soft and the color of the couch is a greenish blue. I was able to put this together by myself in 15 minutes."

This mid-century modern couch is made of high-quality vegan leather. It also has extra wide cushions and armrests for super comfortable seating.

Rave Review: "It’s the perfect size for my apartment—nice and deep set like I wanted. It’s more firm than I think I originally wanted, but I think I actually like it better this way. I fall asleep wayyyy too easy on this thing, and delivery was amazing."

The golden hue of this L-shaped couch with a cozy chaise is stunning. With metal legs and wide, deep cushions and armrests, it delivers on style points and comfort.

Rave Review: "This furniture piece met my expectations and more...[I] wanted a couch with big arms and this delivered modern comfort and high quality structure and materials. Easy assembly and straight-forward."

If you prefer a mid-century modern look for your space's aesthetic, this couch delivers (and has an affordable price to boot). It's made with neutral upholstery and tufted button cushions that also elevate the look and feel. Loveseats, like this one, are also great for small spaces, since they're less wide than other couches.

Rave Review: "For the price paid, this cream linen loveseat has style and comfort beyond its price. The slanted wood legs give it a modern style. The assembly (screw in legs, slide the sides and back onto the base using pre-installed metal glides) took perhaps two minutes—a welcome surprise."

You'll never have to get off the couch again to charge your phone with this couch, which has two USB charging ports for convenient charging for all your electronics. Plus, there are side pockets for extra storage space. It's on the smaller side, but incredibly affordable.

Rave Review: "I really do love this loveseat! I have a small apartment and I have been looking for furniture, so I could get rid of my old clunky furniture I have had for many years. It's just the right size for the small living space I have in my living room, but can still seat two people comfortably. Assembly was easy and took about 30 minutes for two people."

A tuxedo sofa is one of the sleekest designs you can buy, thanks to its high armrests and sharp angles. This one comes with bolster pillows for the perfect accent. At less than $500, it's also pretty affordable compared to other options.

Rave Review: "The color is gorgeous, it's soft, and the cushions are exactly right. I fall asleep on it all the time, but you don't feel like you're sinking into it when you sit down. I'm very happy with it!"

If you get a lot of visitors, a pull-out sofa is a necessity. And this one comes with a ready-to-sleep-on queen-sized foam mattress that folds easily into the couch when not being used.

Rave Review: "This pull-out loveseat exceeded my expectations. The sturdiness, finishing, materials, and functionality are great."

Live in an apartment? This couch was designed with you in mind. It is space-conscious and has a sleek, modern design that will fit any aesthetic. As a bonus, the couch also reclines into a bed for naps in front of the TV.

Rave Review: "Even better than expected—very comfortable and the design is so chic. The fact that it was super easy to put together was a big plus as well."

The extra wide chaise on this couch is its best asset. Snuggle up with your sweetie or spread yourself out for an epic movie marathon. There'll be plenty of naps to come with this one.

Rave Review: "Absolutely love this little sectional. I have a one-bedroom apartment and this couch fits perfectly in my living room—super easy to put together. It’s firm, but very comfortable. Low enough to be toddler safe as well. The velvet is super soft and the whole couch looks really good. Can’t beat the price! Highly recommend."

This leather couch is sturdy, thanks to square legs and wide arm rests. The cushions on this genuine leather couch are filled with goose feathers, so they are extra plush.

Rave Review: "Beautiful and elegant look. Very easy to assemble. Comfortable seating. Lovely tan color with class finishings. Glad that I bought it!"

This couch is so chic you probably couldn't tell it's actually a futon. The back folds down into a bed, so your extra guests can get a good night's sleep. It's also designed in a sleek Scandinavian style and comes in six different colors.

Rave Review: "I spent over three hours researching futons/convertible couches and this is one of the best brands on Amazon! It’s extremely comfortable and sturdy. We love the removable arm rests. It’s low to the ground, but very comfortable and stylish. We bought the pink/rose color and it’s true to the color they provide."

If sustainability is important to you, this sectional couch is made with recycled velvet, 100 percent recycled fiber fill pillows, and wood legs that are made from domestically-sourced maple. Choose from five different colors and three wood hues for an eco-friendly addition to your living space.

Rave Review: "It’s so comfy, cleans like a dream, and bounces right back after taking a beating (two dog household). The color is perfect, too...Highly recommend."

Sit back and relax in this recliner couch. It has pillowy arm rests and cushions that will help you sink in and have an amazing nap or movie sesh. Kick back with two of your friends and you'll feel like you have a theatre right at home.

Rave Review: "We love it. It's the right size, comfortable, looks great in our living room—it looks just like the picture. Very happy with our purchase."
