Sofa length is the measurement people most often get wrong. Our 3 seaters are listed at 6 ft long, and because every sofa can be custom-sized, you can ask for 7 ft instead. This guide helps you decide which length suits your room and family. All products are 30% off with free delivery across India.

6 ft vs 7 ft sofa at a glance


  • Seating: 6 ft seats three adults; 7 ft gives three adults more elbow room.

  • Lying down: a 7 ft sofa suits taller people who nap on the sofa.

  • Room fit: 6 ft suits most 10 ft by 12 ft living rooms; 7 ft needs a longer wall.

  • Delivery: longer sofas are harder to move up narrow stairs.


When 6 ft makes sense


Choose the listed 6 ft size for a compact flat, a room with doors on several walls, or a narrow stair or lift. It's also easier to pair with a 4.5 ft 2 seater.


When 7 ft makes sense


Choose a custom 7 ft sofa if you have a long wall, a large drawing room, or tall family members who love sofa naps. Read our sofa for a Gurgaon high-rise guide before ordering for a lift building.


Measure before you order


  1. Measure the wall and subtract space for side tables or lamps.

  2. Mark the sofa on the floor with tape.

  3. Measure lift, stairs and doors on the delivery route.

Frequently asked questions


  • How long is a standard 3 seater sofa? Our 3 seater sofa pages list a length of 6 ft, with a 3 ft width and 3 ft height.

  • Can I order a 7 ft sofa? Yes. Every sofa we make can be custom-sized, so you can ask for a longer sofa. It takes about 7 working days to make. WhatsApp us for the price of a custom size.

  • Who should choose a 7 ft sofa? Tall family members who like to lie down, larger living rooms, and families who often seat three adults with space to spare.

  • Will a 7 ft sofa fit in my lift? Measure the lift's depth and diagonal, the stair turns and door widths before you order. A longer sofa is harder to turn on narrow stairs.

  • How much space should I leave around the sofa? Leave a walkway of about 2.5 to 3 ft in front of the coffee table and keep the sofa clear of doors and switches.
