Cue: “I’m just gonna rest my eyes for a few minutes.”

I don't know about you, but being comfy-cozy is a top priority for me at pretty much all times. If you agree, you know that it's important to have furniture that's both cute and comfortable. It isn’t often home trends blend the two successfully (if you know, you know), but there's a current must-have on the market that most certainly does. And that is—drumroll, please—thebouclé couch.

Now, when I told my mom I was writing a piece on bouclé couches, she replied, “What the hell is a Michael Bublé couch??” God bless her. For those, like my mom, who confuse interior design trends with Canadian Christmas crooners, let's have a quick chat about what exactly a bouclé couch is and why you will probs be obsessed with it by the time you are done reading.

Bouclé is essentially an uber-plush fabric characterized by looped yarns, giving it a nubby texture that is out-of-this-world soft. So, as you can imagine, when you cover an entire piece of furniture in the stuff (let alone an already-plush sofa), it takes the comfiness level up a like a million notches. Get a good one, and next thing you know you'll be put down for a nap like the 20-something-year-old baby you know you are deep down.

But what's that, you say? How do you know which ones are worth buying? Scroll down and you'll see 21 of the coziest, design-forward bouclé couches I found just for you and your lil peach. Here's a sneak peek...

As you can see, whether you’re into compact curved loveseats, mid-century modern sofas, or sprawling sectionals, I've got all the bouclé bbs to make your space (and midday snooze) even dreamier. Read on for the deets.

The sculptural design of this bad boy will have all your friends fooled into thinking you paid three times the price and have an annual membership to The Met.

Glowing review: “The sofa fit perfectly under my front windows. It looks like a modern soft piece of art. I love the gray color. I was happy that it arrived so fast and in perfect condition. I’m very happy with it.”

Recliner sofas are kind of like the granny panty of the furniture world—super comfortable, but not very attractive. Crate & Barrel has done the unthinkable and created a power recliner sofa that ACTUALLY looks chic.

Glowing review: “I bought this about 6 months ago and am so impressed with the overall design and durability. We have two medium-sized, very sheddy dogs...the hair does tend to stick easily, but also vacuums/lint rollers off pretty easily. Have not noticed butt imprints like other couches—material looks lovely after 6 months of high-traffic use. I love that the buttons are hidden, and the design of this couch is so sleek and modern.”

If you live for the simplicity of mid-century modern design (hi, me too!), then you will love the retro tapered legs and clean lines of this creamy bouclé loveseat. The best part: it can be yours for under $500!

Glowing review: “This sofa is exactly as pictured and is surprisingly comfy. The cushions are somewhat firm but plush and the material is super cozy, especially for the winter. Everything came packaged in an organized and thoughtful fashion. Assembly took no more than ten minutes. The headrest was a little hard to push in at first but with some force it’ll align itself. Customer service was outstanding and very responsive. Sofa is perfect for two people and a puppy and it is now the highlight of my studio! Definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a smaller sofa that is soft and stylish.”

I’ve never stepped foot inside of a Prada store, but I imagine this is what you sit on while you wait for the very well-dressed sales associate to bring you a stack of clothes and shoes. It's just screaming, “Hi, yes, I would love to try on that slingback in a size nine and would gladly take some champagne.”

Glowing reviews: “This couch is the perfect balance of stylish yet comfortable. Great purchase!”

“It’s surprisingly comfy and firm too! Guests always compliment the look and comfort of it.”

For the average gal, buying furniture is a pretty big investment. So, if you're the type who gets bored of trends, opting for a couch with a timeless design like this one is simply The Move. It'll keep your heart content for years to come, and save you some serious moolah in the long run.

Glowing review: “Loved this couch! I was exploring Arhaus and West Elm sofa sectionals for months and couldn't commit to a $8k+ couch that would take months to come in so I took a gamble on this one and couldn't be happier! It looks designer, is built with quality, and is easy to clean! I wasn't thrilled about getting a white couch but it cleans easily with Shout stain remover spray. The only negative is it's a little stiff for my liking. My guests are satisfied with the comfort, I just wish the seat cushions were as fluffy as the back cushions, but that's just my preference! I've still fallen asleep on it several times either way.”

This curved silhouette + bouclé upholstery = you having the trendiest space. Oh, and if you love this style but want something a little bigger, she's also available in a full sofa size!

Glowing review: “Got my loveseat today. I love it! I cannot wait to stage my furniture in my new house. Still waiting on more furniture to do that along with a rug. The bouclé on this is perfect. I'm impressed!”

Let’s address the elephant on the bouclé sofa: Some of the couches on this list are ex-pen-sive. But this chic three-seater? It comes in wellllll under $1,000.

Glowing review: “For the price and estimated delivery time frame, I would 1000% recommend this couch. I have been looking for a beige bouclé, teddy, or sherpa couch, and this one came so quickly, looks fantastic, and was a fraction of the price. I’m a petite woman and easily set this up. This is a steal.”

TBH, the dramatic silhouette of this sofa is giving modern-day “Draw me like one of your French girls” vibes. Which is totally fabulous...you know, minus the whole star-crossed lover turning into a human popsicle in the North Atlantic thing. THERE WAS ENOUGH ROOM ON THAT DOOR, DAMMIT. Long story short, you need this couch.

Glowing review: “Absolutely gorgeous in every way! The quality in the material and the way it was built is fabulous. Worth every penny!”

Is it a couch? Is it a bed? The world may never know. But just imagine curling up on this bouclé bad boy with a soft blanket and a good book. Followed by a fat nap, of course.

Glowing review: “Great little modern piece. We love the camel bouclé. It’s firm but comfortable and is a great conversation piece.”

This ultra-modern couch looks like it was designed for intimate conversations (aka sh*t talking that ex who unfollowed you on IG but still creeps on your stories). With adjustable armrests and backrests, everyone will be comfy for the next gossip sesh.

Glowing review: “My partner and I love the pebbles couch! It’s really cute and pretty comfortable in person with some throw pillows. Would definitely recommend!”

Remember when you were a kid and every now and then you would get the sudden urge to rearrange your entire room? And how your parents were never down for the challenge? Now, as an adult, I totally get it, because moving furniture means pulling muscles I didn’t even know existed. That won't happen with this lightweight, easy-to-assemble sofa—it's got nearly 700 rave reviews mentioning how easy-peasy it is to move.

Glowing review: “I just LOVE. I plan to move every couple of years to keep experiencing new places and moving my old couch was a nightmare, especially through tough-shaped hallways. This couch easily comes apart and I can move it from place to place. Love it.”

A sleeper sofa has never looked so good. Your guests will be delighted to snooze on this bouclé beauty instead of that squeaky, old futon with stains from college nights of lore.

Glowing review: “I bought this a few months ago and I am so happy with this purchase. I live in a studio apartment and wanted something that could double as a couch and a pullout for when guests visit. This sleeper sofa is PERFECT and it's beautiful. It's easy to unfold into a bed as well and I've had a lot of happy guests that have slept on it and said it's great for sleeping in addition to being a great couch!”

If you love to unwind after a long day by catching up on some much-needed reality TV and a rather large glass of red wine, then the thought of having a white couch might send chills down your spine. Luckily, this creamy cutie is upholstered in spill-resistant fabric. Bottoms up!

Glowing review: “This couch is perfection personified—beautiful form, extremely comfy, and liquid resistant. Liquid rolls off the bouclé fabric like water on a lily pad, and its low profile works perfectly with our window ledge. This is quite possibly my—and my wife's—favorite purchase in our home. Also, Castlery's white glove service is excellent. Highly recommend!”

A classic design upholstered in a super-soft fabric AND under 500 bucks...do you need any more reasons to add-to-cart right TF now?!

Glowing reviews: “I purposely wanted a firm couch and wanted a soft beige. This fit the bill. It went together in less than 5 minutes…I'm very happy with this purchase.”

“This couch is really cute!!! The setup was very easy...This couch does sit a little lower, just like some of the previous comments stated. However, it is very very sturdy. The two smaller pillows were included so that was a nice touch. I am glad the Fed Ex driver helped me bring it into the house because the box is super heavy. This was definitely exceptional value for the price!”

Look like a goddess while you take a nap on this chic sofa that is low-key reminiscent of the Birth of Venus. You're a work of art, babe. Don’t forget it.

Glowing review: “This piece makes my home a dream. It’s comfortable to sit on, and not too heavy to assemble yourself. A perfect purchase.”

If there is one thing about me, it’s that I’m gonna take a nap. I don’t care if I only have 10 minutes or a whole lazy afternoon, at some point my eyes will be closed. This low-profile pick with memory foam cushions (!!) looks like the perfect spot to rest my head for a midday slumber.

Glowing review: “Long enough to stretch out on, plus a top layer of memory foam, makes this modular sofa by West Elm soooo good. If you are looking to invest in a piece of furniture that will provide plenty of comfort, space, and style, then this is def the one for you.”

When it comes to a large piece of furniture, usually less is more. The clean lines and modern design of this bouclé sofa will balance out your Squishmallow collection that doubles as a set of throw pillows. (No judgment here!)

Glowing review: “Wow, I’m absolutely amazed by this sofa, I searched for three months for the perfect sofa. The material and quality are great! It’s comfy and firm, but soft at the same time! It’s just what we wanted!”

With curves in all the right places, this luxe sectional is basically the Beyoncé of couches. Definitely got me dangerously in love.

Glowing review: “The shape is stylish—retro-modern and big enough to fill out my spacious living area. The curve flows beautifully like a river. It is comfortable beyond belief and the fabric is high-end, feels plush and rich. The craftsmanship on this sofa leaves me speechless.”

This bouclé bb is for all my fellow small-space dwellers. Coming in under 70” wide, this loveseat is big enough to curl up on for a midday snooze, but compact enough to fit in that tiny fourth-floor walkup with the four-digit rent.

Glowing review: “I absolutely love my Gwyneth Loveseat! It fits perfectly in my small living room and adds a softness to the space. The texture of the fabric is one of my favorite things about this loveseat. It adds a lot to the space and makes a great place to curl up with a good book.”

Having a large friend group is a blessing and a curse. You are surrounded by people you love, but there are NEVER enough places for everyone to sit when you get together. If you have the space (and the cash), this huuuuge curved sofa is the stylish solution to your popular-girl problem.

Glowing review: “The Marlow Performance Bouclé Curve Sofa elevated our loft! Its shape brings such a sophisticated feel to the space & I absolutely love spending time in here. It truly makes such a statement in our home & makes my heart happy every time I see it. We've had our Marlow for two months now, & I am so pleased with the quality. No pilling, or shedding! 10000000% recommend for its aesthetic appeal & coziness.”
