The Property Brothers' Highly-Rated Power Reclining Sofa That Left Us With Questions
If you're searching for the best sectional for your living room to accommodate family and friends, the Property Brothers have designed a sofa you should consider. Visible in the background of this TikTok video, the sectional instantly caught our eye. After hunting for this living room staple, we were unsurprised to learn that it was a product from one of Drew and Jonathan Scott's exclusive collaborations. You can shop the Newport Leather 7-Piece Dual Power Reclining Sectional from their Rooms To Go collection at Furniture.com, available for $4,800.
It comes in three colors, including a mint green, a deep brown, and an off-white almond shade. The sectional has largely positive reviews, with an average 4.5-star rating, but some have complained over how much space it takes up. However, both the head and footrest can be adjusted for reclining, and the patented zero-gravity mechanism creates a unique and comfortable feel. For additional relaxation, there are added cupholders and charging ports. While it is not possible for the sectional to be split, you can create a dramatic living room by swapping the side of the chaise to best suit your space. Although this piece is adaptable, there are some factors to consider to determine whether it's right for your lifestyle.
The pros and cons of Drew and Jonathan's sectional
The seats of the Newport Sectional are made of real leather, offering a buttery finish. The sides and back are made of Polyurethane. While this is a unique alternative for those who want the comfort and quality of a leather sofa at a more accessible price point, buyers should be aware that the upholstery is mixed. Another feature to keep in mind is that although Drew and Jonathan's sectional is large, it cannot be converted into a bed. If that variable is important to you, consider the ChicFurnit Store U-Shaped Sectional Sofa as an affordable alternative.
Most of the reviews are positive, however, there were a few criticisms mentioned by Newport Sectional buyers. "This sectional looks great and the quality of the leather is top notch," One reviewer noted. "I am very disappointed however in how far the seat backs travel when in the reclined position. I ended up having to place it about 1.5 feet from my wall so it would have room which created a big wasted space behind the sofa and made my entire living room feel so much smaller." If you're working with a more compact space and don't have room for the entire sectional, you can always choose a smaller variation, like the Newport Leather 3-Piece Dual Power Reclining Sectional. The smaller version can be an excellent addition to your space, even if you have an existing sofa. In fact, the Property Brothers are known for fitting mismatched furniture together in one living room.
