What is chaise in sofa? I keep seeing it in listings while shopping for a new couch—does it just mean a longer seat, or is it a totally different style?
Simply put, a chaise is an extended section of a sofa—designed to let you stretch out your legs, recline, or even lie down. It typically has no full backrest or only one armrest, making it a hybrid between a sofa and a lounge chair.
You can think of it like this:
Standard sofa: for sitting
Sofa with chaise: for both sitting and lounging
Common features include:
An extended seat on one side (left-hand or right-hand chaise)
Enhanced comfort for relaxation
Often found in L-shaped or sectional sofas
