I’ve had my fair proportion of gigantic packing containers arriving at my entrance door. It’s the character of my job. However regardless of checking the scale, and regardless of making an attempt to brace myself, nothing may have ready me for the supply of the Cozey Ciello XL Sofa.
This couch is large. Dimensions range by configuration (extra on that later), however mine is available in at 148 x 68.5 x 26.8 inches—and that’s with out the non-compulsory storage ottoman. Every part of the sofa arrives in its personal field, and mine had so many who I used to be capable of totally lie down on high of the packing containers.
A bit of furnishings this huge is certain to come back with some quirks, however total, the Cozey Ciello XL is completely wonderful—offered it’s what you’re searching for within the first place.
Trendy and Modular
One of many largest attracts of this sofa is its customizability. It’s accessible in three efficiency cloth colours and two chenille colours. I examined the couch within the Grey efficiency cloth for slightly underneath two months. You’ll be able to order a swatch e book free of charge to determine which cloth you need.

I like to recommend having a companion or buddy enable you to arrange the couch. When you get into the groove, the sofa is very easy to assemble—even simpler than some smaller couch-in-box setups that I’ve tried. The covers and {hardware} ship contained in the hole seat, backrest, or armrest. We configured our couch and assembled it piece by piece, then snapped the items collectively. It may be slightly difficult to line up the brackets completely when seating the whole lot into place, however take your time and you ought to be wonderful. Simply be ready to interrupt down a LOT of cardboard afterward.
The efficiency cloth is okay. It feels a bit scratchy, but it surely’s straightforward to scrub, and the detachable cushions imply you’ll be able to kind of wash your sofa within the washer. The sofa didn’t have an offensive scent, and it was fairly snug proper from the soar. Which brings me to my subsequent level—precisely how cozy is it?
Okay-est Nap of My Life
I’m an ungainly sitter. I’m consistently pretzel-ing my physique, draping my limbs over furnishings, and folding my legs up as I shift in my seat. The Cozey Ciello XL made this concurrently very straightforward and really troublesome.
The seats of the sofa themselves are nice, if a bit crinkly-sounding. They’re deep and comfy, offered you sit within the seat itself and never throughout the sting of two of them (wherein case the inflexible construction beneath you’ll make it really feel such as you’re being break up in two). Until you’re exceptionally tall, for those who scoot all the way in which again, your legs and/or ft will dangle. The again cushions go away quite a bit to be desired. The again of the sofa and the arms are each very boxy and low, so once you scoot again and try to throw an arm over the again of the couch, it feels a bit awkward. The seat cushions additionally have a tendency to slip ahead, away from the again cushions, and the again cushions and arm cushions don’t like to remain in place. Which means I spent quite a lot of time rearranging the couch as an alternative of simply sitting on it. This similar design situation means once you’re sitting side-by-side, you find yourself sinking into the individual sitting subsequent to you. There’s greater than sufficient room for 2 individuals to sit down at reverse ends of the couch, however once more—I ought to be capable of sit subsequent to any individual else with out invading their private area.
