Before I dive into the Bassett reviewsFurniturechoosing a sofa, let's look at some thoughts about the review in general and my perspective, priorities and style preferences. Before you read these reviews, it's important to note that Bassett furniture is highly customizable. Therefore, they only have a sample of what is available in the store.
Therefore, I limited myself to what was in the salon, but also informed about the possibility of personalization and additional products included in the collection. This is to help you decide which model should be on your shortlist before you get to the show! As with all quality reviews, it all depends on someone else's opinion.
In this case it is min. In order to be as transparent as possible and provide as unbiased a view as possible, I have created a couch shopping scenario. This allowed me to explain in detail what I was looking for in a sofa and how each sofa would fit into my lifestyle.
Use this information when deciding whether to take my review with a grain of salt. Shopping for Bassett Sofas I was browsing through sofas looking for one for my parents' new home in New Hampshire. They recently retired and bought a lake house where they hope to host the whole family for holidays and celebrations.
They have an open mindsalonwhich decorates. They prefer a big sofa so everyone can sit back and watch the New England Patriots dominate their opponents! The style they want to keep is definitely reminiscent of a lake house, so we're looking for something cozy and comfortable both in terms of look and feel.
Another extremely important aspect of my parents' future search for body parts is that they have 11 grandchildren under the age of 10! So durability and ease of cleaning are extremely high priorities in this market! Now that we got that out of the way, let's move on to the Bassett Sofa review!

Overall impression:The Davenport is a really comfortable piece of furniture and I love the way it combines both traditional and modern styles to create a real transitional piece! The loose back cushions are lightly stuffed, but the subtle details make it look inviting - like you want to sit down and stay a while! Comfort-wise, the bottom cushions are firm memory foam that allows you to gently sink into it, which is fine for people with back problems like my parents.
It is also quite deep, making it ideal for lounging and sleeping. I knowto sleepthis is an important factor for me when choosing a sofa, and although my parents are the biggest nappers, my dad enjoys lying on the sofa and watching a football match! This is definitely a great sofa for this purpose.
The softly wrapped arms give the Davenport just the right touch of class, making it a great sofa for literally any home - whether you're looking for a rustic, cozy feel or an exclusive seaside vibe. In addition, with many optionsdepartment configurationsor regular sofas, you will definitely be able to create a Davenport that will work in any size room!

- Additional information: Backrest cushions partially fixed
- Matching products available:

- U-shaped cross section
Overall impression:Now I like it! Alexander is a classic piece of furniture with armrests and tapered legs, which is truly a beautiful piece of traditional furniture. In my opinion, it's the ultimate in comfort and style, plus it's a really well made sofa!
When it comes to comfort, coming home after a long day at work and immersing yourself in Alexandra sounds like a dream come true! It has nice deep cushions and the back cushions are more like a bedcaninstead of sofa cushions. This not only significantly improves comfort, but also gives it a relaxed, approachable look.
TyI wantsit in Alexander! Not scary, but like an old friend: familiar and smarter than the last time you saw them!
Bryanta
Details:
- Dimensions:
- Height: 36"
- Length: 89"
- Depth: 42"
- Materials available: 1 (online)
- Matching products available:
- Shiny
- TableAnd a half
- L-shaped cut
- U-shaped cut
Overall impression:With a truly modern, relaxed look, Bryant is a surprisingly comfortable part of Bassett. I really like the armrests in this sofa collection because they are so unique, short and round! I think it creates a nice contrast to the padded back cushions, which have a much softer shape.
The interplay between Bryant's soft and hard lines really works in different places. I like the way they have combined a lounge model with a very rustic leather stool and it all works great together! I don't think I would have ever thought of combining them.
That's why it's always fun to visit the showroom itself, as you can see how the individual pieces work together in different styles and spaces! When it comes to comfort, this is itfor one each priceinin a dreamcouch! The removable back cushions are great, but they are deep enough that I can recline comfortably without feeling like I'm falling off the sofa.
You sink into this soft, medium-firm sofa that makes you feel like you can relax, but also talk to someone without looking like you're lying down.
Seraphina
Details:
- Dimensions:
- Height: 34.5"
- Length: 85"
- Depth: 37"
- Available substances: substance 43; 10 leather
- Available colors: 204+
- Available finishes: 4
- Additional details: Removable back cushions
- Matching products available:

- Shiny
- Armchair
Overall impression:OhSeraphinahow much I wanted to love you more. Unfortunately, you are a little too elegant for a lot of traffic! With slim, modern shoulders and tapered legs in four different finishesSeraphinathis is a modern, contemporary piece that can be used in a variety of areas because there are so many customization options.
The sofa itself is quite comfortable, but unfortunately the living room model looks like it didn't do well lying on the floor! The cushions were loose and the back cushions did not hold their shape very well. While this may be intentional for a more casual look, it really makes it look dated and I question the durability.
I'll probably get the designer's opinion - whether it should look worn or just not designed for high traffic. If you're looking for style, go modern with brown orgreylegs in matching wallpaper. Or you can go for a more urban, modern look by choosing brass or stainless steel, making it a truly unique and versatile piece for your room, whatever style you choose.
American casual Wellington
Details:
- Dimensions:
- Height: 37.5"
- Length: 84.5"
- Depth: 37.5"
- Available liners: fabric 40+, leather 10+
- Available colors: 204+
- Additional details: Partially attached back cushions. removable legs
- Matching products available:
- L-shaped cut
- Shiny
- Armchair
- Double armchair
Overall impression:American Casual Wellington combines the relaxed charm of traditional American style with a wide range of wallpaper options to customize the room of your dreams. The sock's straight, thin shoulders are close fitting and give it a traditional feelbokscushions and the shape of the frame add soft, natural lines that are not as sharp as modern furniture, but have a classic feel. while I amNOAs a fan of leather sofas, I was surprised by the quality of the leather on this sofa.
It looks and feels very natural, which is sometimes not found with leather sofas. In some cases, it can look cheap and fake, depending on the dyeing process. In this case though, I like the leather and would love to see it in the office or home studio.
Both the color and the shade are very masculine, which makes me think that this sofa can really be used in many different rooms - this is where the choice of upholstery matters. In terms of comfort, it looks like a comfortable sofa in the living room, and thankfully it passes my endurance test! I sank into Wellington and could probably take a nap if I let myself.
It is much deeper than it looks when you sit on it. I could see myself sitting here with a good book and feeling very comfortable! Aside from the classic details and shape, you can't go wrong with the Wellington. Use your options to customize your room to make it work!
Melina
Details:
- Dimensions:
- Height: 32.5"
- Length: 91"
- Depth: 41"
- Available fabrics: 1 (leather only)
- Available colors: 3
- Additional information: Backrest cushions partially fixed. walnut colored legs
- Matching products available:
- Monippo cut
- L-shaped cut
- A chair and a half
- Shiny
Overall impression:Modern comfort - that's exactly how Melina looks and brings it to any room where you place it! The full control arms are robust and actually create a new seating area if you are crowded. I really like the details in the stitching on the cushions and arms, which give it a clean and elegant look.
The only thing I don't like is the wallpaper. I don't like leather and this leather is one of the reasons I don't like it. It looks fake, although I'm sure it's not.
I also don't like how the leather is shiny and reflective, and I also think most leathers are too masculine and suitable for a rustic space. In fact, I don't think leather works on this couch at all. I expect leather sofas to have beautifully wrapped armrests, detailed stitching, quilting and padded seat cushions.
It has none of them. Although this makes it a more stylish and modern sofa, it's not something I like. However, I see it in an industrial or rustic space, playing with modern elements next to rustic, unfinished wood and raw edges, maybe some brick and wrought iron details.
It wouldn't fit in a lake house in New Hampshire.
Jackson
Details:
- Dimensions:
- Height: 38"
- Length: 85"
- Depth: 37"
- Available substances: 1
- Available colors: 2
- Optional nail head details available
- Additional details: Partially attached back cushions
- Matching products available:
- Shiny
- Armchair
- Double armchair
- Armchair
Overall impression:Jackson 3 seater sofa on display at Bassett Furniture in Austin, Texas, the traditional leather sofa you remember. The detailed finish of the nail head on the arms emphasizes the classic detail of this sofa, which in my opinion makes a whole! The interesting thing about this sofa is that its front rail is actually secured, giving it a very interesting silhouette from the side.
It is emphasized beautifully by the cushions' rounded shape, which creates a beautiful, full look. As for the leather, I don't like it. I don't know if it's the color or not - or the way it's dyed - but personal leatherit looks likeimitation.
It is very shiny, which I don't like, but I know that is typical for leather sofas. I much prefer leather which looks worn and I think this sofa could do with a change of upholstery. When this sofa hits the market, there aren't many options – at least online – but you can definitely talk to the designer if you're interested and have a similar opinion about the available leather options and what you see in the living room.
Hunter
Details:
- Dimensions:
- Height: 39"
- Length: 90.5"
- Depth: 41"
- Available substances: 42
- Optional nail head details available
- Additional details: Relaxing back cushions. removable legs
- Matching products available:
- Monippo cut
- L-shaped cut
- U-shaped cut
- Shiny
- Armchair
- Sofa
Overall impression:With short arms and beautifully turned legs, the Hunter is a two-seater oversized lounge chair that combines tradition and modernity for a truly transitional look! I like that there are two cushions on this sofa because for a sleeper, most cushions are not always the best to ensure that the structure of the sofa is maintained for a long time. The more space there is between the cushions, the more pressure points there are on the sofa frame.
This is a great everyday sofa for a room that is luxurious but also wants to be comfortable. I think it's a very versatile piece of furniture that can be matched to many different projects because it lives in this transitory bubble! I think it would look great with a detailed triangular cocktail table that would create an almost shabby chic vibe.
Dress up in blue and get your beach style on! So versatile, so comfortable - you really can't go wrong with the Hunter!
