What is a bumper sofa?
1 Answer

A bumper sofa is a sofa with a specific design. Usually part of a larger sectional sofa, it is a long chaise with an extended armrest. The design of the bumper sofa makes it possible for a single person to sit with their legs stretched out along the chaise or for multiple people to sit on the chaise with their feet on the floor, using the armrest as a backrest.
