Mid-century sofas hold a special place in my heart — I’m currently sitting on one as I write, in fact. But, as much as I love them, the pretty ones often cost a pretty penny. Normally, I’d wait months to make such a big-ticket purchase, I know how fleeting a sale on Amazon can be, so when I spotted this stunner of a Christopher Knight sofa marked down 32%, I couldn’t resist.
Now, to be clear, I’m a bit of a sofa snob. Not even the shiniest of sales could tempt me unless I was completely head over heels. So, allow me to break down what sold me on this Christopher Knight sofa — arguably one of the best Amazon sofas there is.
It's got a clean-lined, low-slung silhouette with petite gold-tipped legs that feel both nostalgic and design-forward at the same time. Beyond that, the button tufting is an elevated detail that I’m a total sucker for, and the fact that it’s made from dark-hued rubberwood — a durable, environmentally friendly material — was a huge plus. And finally, perhaps the biggest pro of all: it’s currently only a smidge over $400!
This Christopher Knight beauty is one of the best sofas I’ve come across on Amazon in a while. Its petite scroll pillows and dainty legs add a touch of airy elegance to what could otherwise be a substantial silhouette. The result is a perfectly balanced piece that would look stunning paired with similarly low-slung coffee or side tables, perhaps accented with a hint of gold in a nearby lamp, mirror, or decorative bowl for an extra pop. Some assembly is required, but for $400, I’m more than happy to put in the effort (especially since it’s rated 4.4/5 stars for ease of assembly). I don’t usually gravitate toward gray furniture, but this sofa is really winning me over!
With glowing reviews (4.3/5 stars from 353 customers) and a 30-day return policy, if I’m not completely sold, this deal is too good to pass up. Needless to say, I’m adding it to my cart!
More Mid-Century Sofas From Amazon
I mentioned earlier that I’m a sucker for button tufting, but I don’t discriminate! I love the geometric, chocolate bar-esque divots on this timeless couch, which feels both graceful and elegant in ivory performance velvet. It’s a perfect blend of low profile and high design, coming in at just under $700. For an unexpected contrast, consider placing a bold color or patterned rug underneath.
This small sofa is bringing my childhood pillow fort dreams to life. It’s not for everyone, but if you’re into this cushion-style silhouette, it’s a fabulous buy. Just the right amount of overstuffed, it looks undeniably expensive. With a rating of 4.2/5 stars, it's one of the best loveseats in terms of comfort — plump and perfect in every way. Also available in green, black, and white.
This one’s a bit of a splurge, but if you have the budget, it’s a steal for full-grain pure-aniline Italian leather. I’m loving the rich cognac hue, which will develop a gorgeous patina over time, aging like fine wine. I scrolled through the customer review photos, and it seems this sofa looks even better in person! As one of the best leather sofas on Amazon, consider it an investment piece you’ll likely have for life.
