Choosing a couch is as personal as choosing a mattress. Everyone likes a different kind — and with it taking up so much space in your living room, you’ll want to strike that careful balance between aesthetics and comfort. So many shoppers have found both in the Cloud couch—a style started by RH that then inspired a million alternatives. For those who may not have the budget for RH's Cloud couch, however, you can still try to seek out similar pieces at an affordable price. According to die-hard Costco shoppers online, some believe they found a good substitute at the wholesaler: the Sereen 6-piece Fabric Modular Sectional from Aiden & Ivy.
This sectional has a lot of the features that made the idea of a cloud couch famous: a modular design, feather-filled cushions, and low-profile plush back pillows. You can re-configure it to fit your seating needs: from three loveseats to an L-shaped sectional and ottoman. It comes with track arms for a modern, updated silhouette, and at a sticker price of $2,349.99, it's less expensive than other sink-in couches on the market.
“I had shopped for weeks before ordering this, sight unseen, and I don't think I could be happier," one happy reviewer wrote. "This sectional is strongly facsimile of the Restoration Hardware Cloud sofa collection which prices north of $15,0000. It's mentioned in previous reviews, but this thing is a beast. Each modular section was boxed separately in what looked like containers for Sub Zero refrigerators. But oh, oh... once it was set up, I knew I was never going to leave my living room again.”
If you’re ready to snag Costco's couch, we suggest you hurry. It’s already sold out in another color, so we don’t think this one will be in stock for long. If you can’t find one at the warehouse near you, though, don’t fret. There are some pretty comfy options on Wayfair and Amazon, and one HB-tested option that’s perfect for small spaces.
