The 8 Best Couches at Walmart of 2023

Best Overall

Hillsdale Living Essentials Larissa Sofa

View On Walmart

The Hillsdale Living Essentials Larissa Sofa may not be the largest sofa on the market, but its innovative built-in USB charging ports, durable polyester cushions, and easy-to-assemble frame make it our top choice for couches from Walmart. Unlike other sofas that come in tiny pieces and require over an hour of assembly, this sofa can easily be assembled without any power tools and literally snaps together in minutes. However, we're slightly suspicious of this easy-to-assemble frame's durability against rambunctious kids or lots of bouncing.

Despite our question of long-term durability, we love this sofa's timeless design with fluffy back cushions and comfortable pocket coil seat cushions, plus the polyester material will stand up against staining and wear. We're slightly disappointed that the cushion covers aren't machine washable, especially since this sofa is offered in two lighter finishes; however, it can easily be spot cleaned with an upholstery cleaner or stain spray.

We also love this sofa's modern take on convenience with built-in USB charging ports and hidden storage pockets for magazines, books, or tablets. Overall, we think this sofa is great for anyone looking for a reliable starter sofa or an upgraded, modern sofa to replace their worn-out couch.

Best Mid-Century Modern

HOMFA 3 Seater Square Arm Sofa

View On Walmart

It can be challenging to find a mid-century modern couch that's well-made and doesn't cost over $500. The HOMFA Square Arm Sofa at Walmart is a great compromise, if you're looking for the look of a mid-century modern couch without the high price point. This sofa is upholstered with a mix of microfiber and microsuede to create a faux leather appearance, and the cushions are filled with foam and reinforced with coils in the seats.

It comes with two matching cylindrical throw pillows that can be arranged at your discretion or placed on separate arm chairs to tie your living area together. This sofa's solid pine wood frame is sure to offer plenty of support for years to come, but we wish the cushions weren't quite so stuffed looking. While the coils are meant to reinforce their shape and prevent sagging over time, we think a little bit of use will give this sofa that perfect lived-in look that mid-century modern pieces often have.

Best Minimalist

Gap Home Upholstered Wood Base Sofa

View On Walmart

This minimalist-inspired couch design from Gap Home is sure to last you for years and stand up to wear from both children and pets. It's supported by a solid wood base, and we personally love the exposed wooden legs that brings a bit of warmth to the design. The upholstery is linen-inspired meaning it has the texture and appearance of linen but is likely a synthetic blend that's much more durable than linen's natural weave. We recommend being wary of muddy paws and spaghetti sauce—especially if you choose the oat color—because this fabric still may not be the best stain resistant option.

We also love the fluffy foam cushions that are extra large and perfect for curling up with a throw blanket and good book. Two matching throw pillows are also included to help you style your living area. Assembly is required, but all necessary tools and pieces are included in the packaging. Overall, we think this couch is a great design that definitely rivals more expensive models on the market.

Best Leather

Hillsdale Jianna Faux Leather Sofa

View On Walmart

The Hillsdale Jianna Faux Leather Sofa is the ideal choice for anyone hoping to achieve the look of a traditional leather sofa without breaking their bank account. This sofa is not only affordable but also well made with a solid wood frame and coil-wrapped seat cushions that will prevent sagging over time. This couch's upholstery is also scuff-resistant, unlike real leather, but we recommend keeping sharp cat and dog claws off of it to prevent any tearing that may occur. It's also important to note that some faux leather fabrics have a tendency to peel, so we recommend keeping this couch out of direct sunlight and avoid contact with large liquid spills.

If you do need to spot treat this couch's upholstery, a damp cloth should help remove any sticky residue or stains. We also love that this couch doesn't require any tools to assemble it, but we recommend having a helper nearby to assist in the overall process. Whether you style this couch for your boho living room or ranch-inspired man cave, it'll make a great addition to any living space and should withstand regular wear and tear for several years.

Best Tufted

Zinus Benton Upholstered Sofa

View On Walmart

It should be no surprise that Zinus, a company known for its comfortable bedding products, also has a home furniture line. Their Benton Sofa is the perfect balance of sophisticated grid tufting with soft, yet supportive cushions that encourage the occasional afternoon cat nap. Zinus promises a 20 minute assembly process for this couch, which is packed into one compact box with all of its parts and detailed assembly instructions.

We also love that they include a one-year warranty for any factory defects that you find on the couch as you use it. The cushions are filled with a mixture of dense foam and springs for that perfect firm, yet plush experience when lounging. The coils also ensure that this couch won't sag overtime. We wish Zinus specified this couch's frame material as that would help to determine its overall durability and weight. However, we don't consider this a complete negative to the couch, as it's otherwise well-constructed and thoughtfully packaged for a convenient shopping experience.

Best Sleeper

Novogratz Vintage Tufted Velvet Split Back Futon

View On Walmart

The Novogratz Vintage Tufted Velvet Split Back Futon is a great option if you're cramped for space in a guest bedroom that also serves as your personal home office, or in a small apartment. Its attractive design, functionality, and well-made frame make it a couch that you can count on for several year. We especially love that this futon can become a lounger by clicking into a reclined back position between its upright and bed settings.

While its vintage-inspired design may not be for everyone, we appreciate that it's available in a range of colors. We recommend keeping food and beverages away from this couch as much as possible, as the velvet upholstery may not stand up well against staining. This couch does arrive in pieces, so you may want an additional set of hands and power tools available for the assembly process. While it's clear this couch is well-made and attractive, we most of all appreciate its covert design that doesn't fully give away its convertible abilities.

_{Dimensions: 34.50 x 81.50 x 33.50 inches (seat); 17.5 x 73.5 x 44 inches (bed) | Material: Velvet upholstery with wood frame | Color: Blue, green, grey, mustard, pink, taupe, or teal}

Best for Large Spaces

Lifestyle Solutions Taryn Sofa with Curved Arms

View On Walmart

If you have a larger space to fill, but aren't looking to deal with the hassle of a sectional sofa, we recommend the Taryn Sofa by Lifestyle Solutions. It measures just under 79 inches long, so it'll easily fill a larger living area without overcrowding. It's upholstered with polyester fabric—making it a great choice for busy families with pets and kids—which is more resistant to staining. Foam-filled cushions also offer plenty of plush, yet supportive comfort as you lounge in front of the television.

We love this sofa's curved arm design, which gives it a modern flare with its hidden frame and flared legs. We recognize that this sofa's darker finish may not match everyone's personal color palette, but we think it's a great option for homeowners who don't want to tackle constant steam cleaning or stain removing.
