Is the Harmony Modular Sectional worth it?

If you want a soft, reconfigurable sofa for a small room and can live with a 1-out-of-5 firmness seat, it is a strong pick. At $2,837.60 at West Elm as of October 31, it is at its lowest recent price.

How firm is the seat?

West Elm rates it 1 out of 5 for firmness, so it is soft and deep rather than supportive. Shoppers who want an upright seat should look at firmer models.

Will it fit a small living room?

It is sized for apartments: 86" wide, 86.5" deep and 37" high, with a 70" seat width. Measure your delivery path, since the five pieces arrive separately.

Can the pieces be used separately?

Yes. Each piece is fully upholstered and can stand alone, and alligator clips are included to lock them together when you want one sectional.

Two corner pieces, one ottoman, throw pillows, lumbar pillows and alligator clips. The 40" depth version does not include lumbar pillows.

Its recent low was $2,837.60 on October 31, against a high of $3,678.40 on November 1. West Elm runs seasonal sales, so watch for markdowns around holidays.

Our take on the West Elm Harmony Modular Sectional

The West Elm Harmony Modular Sectional is a five-piece fabric sectional built around a corner, an ottoman and loose, reversible cushions. It is scaled small — 86" wide by 86.5" deep with a 70" seat width and 22" seat depth — so it fits apartments and smaller living rooms, and the pieces can stand alone or be clipped together with alligator clips. The frame is kiln-dried engineered hardwood with mortise-and-tenon joinery, sinuous springs, fiber-wrapped foam seats rated soft (1 out of 5 on firmness) and feather-down back cushions. Its latest best price of $2,837.60 (October 31) sits at the bottom of its recent $2,837.60–$3,678.40 range, roughly $840 below the high.

What reviewers say

Owners of the Harmony line generally praise how comfortable and deep the seats feel and like that the modular pieces can be reconfigured. Common complaints center on the soft cushions losing shape and on light fabrics staining easily.

Pros

Easy to reconfigure and move
Cushion covers come off for cleaning

Cons

Seat cushions soften and flatten over time
Light upholstery marks and stains easily
Feather back cushions shed and need fluffing
