What is the difference between a sofa and a lounger?
1 Answer
The difference between a sofa and a lounger is largely seating capacity. Both types of furniture feature upholstery and padding to deliver a comfortable seating experience. However, a sofa is generally meant for two or more people, while a lounger allows one person to relax with their feet elevated. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of sofas and loungers from some of the world's top sellers.
