Right Hand Corner Sofas

About right-hand corner sofas

This is our selection of right-hand corner (RHC) sofas — L-shaped corner sofas whose long return sits on the right — currently reduced in the sale. They are fabric designs, with one velvet, drawn from the Verona, Rupert, Somerford, Scott and Byron ranges, so you can compare a handful of right-hand corners by colour, shape and price on one page. Every item here is reduced from its usual price.

Because it is a sale, the exact line-up and stock change over time, so it is worth checking the live product pages and sorting by availability to see what you can order today. If you need the mirrored shape instead, see our left-hand corner sofas collection.

What does right-hand corner mean?

The “hand” of a corner sofa describes which side the long return sits on. On a right-hand corner the return runs to the right; on a left-hand corner it runs to the left. Because the convention can be quoted either facing the sofa or sitting on it, the safest approach is to look at the product image and any orientation diagram on the page and picture yourself in the room before ordering.

Getting the hand wrong is the most common corner-sofa mistake, and it is not something that can be swapped after delivery, so it is worth taking a moment over. Every design in this selection is the right-hand version; for the mirror image, look for the same range in our corner sofas collection.

How to choose the right hand for your room

Stand in your room facing where the sofa will go and decide which way the long return should run so it fits the corner neatly and does not block a door, window or walkway. If the return needs to run to the right as you face it, a right-hand corner is the one you want. Mark the full L-shaped footprint on your floor, including the return, before you commit, and check that the return does not overhang a radiator, socket or skirting run you need to reach.

Several of these ranges also come as a left-hand version, so if a right-hand corner does not suit your space you can pick the mirrored orientation. If you are unsure which way round you need, our team can talk it through over the phone. You can also compare the cool-toned options across shapes in our grey corner sofas range.

Fabric and velvet

These corner sofas are fabric, apart from the Scott design which is velvet. We describe them as fabric because that is what the titles confirm, and keep velvet distinct from plain fabric in the wording. There is no leather in this selection. Fabric is a soft, warm, everyday upholstery that is easy to dress with cushions; the Scott velvet adds a richer, light-catching pile that rewards gentle brushing.

We keep these materials clearly separate so you know exactly what you are buying, and we do not add fibre or performance details that a title does not state. For more of the softer finish across corner shapes, see our fabric corner sofas collection.

Standard corners and the corner chaise

Most designs here are standard L-shaped corner sofas, with a squared corner seat where the two sides meet. The Somerford designs are a corner chaise, which has an extended, open lounging end on the return rather than a full squared corner — a relaxed section to stretch out on. Both make good use of a corner; the chaise simply gives a longer, open lounging part, which some people prefer for stretching out and others find takes a little more room to walk around.

Which shape suits you depends on how you like to sit and the space you have; the product-page image shows the exact form of each. To see the plusher pile options across shapes, browse our velvet corner sofas range.

The brands and colours

The selection spans the Verona, Rupert, Somerford, Scott and Byron ranges, in colours including grey, beige, chocolate, caramel, navy, silver and nutmeg — from cool neutrals to warm browns and a bold navy. Rupert is the best represented here, offered in several colours, so it is often the quickest route to a right-hand corner in the shade you want.

Availability of a particular brand or colour depends on stock and changes as the sale updates, so use the filters to see what is currently available, and treat the product images as a guide to the exact shade. For warm-toned options across other designs, see our brown sofas collection.

Choosing the right size

Start with the corner you have and the two walls the sofa will sit against, then confirm the return runs to the right and leaves clearance to walk around it. A corner sofa makes efficient use of a corner but has a large overall footprint, so measure both walls and the return carefully, and leave enough clearance at the open end so the room does not feel boxed in. Exact dimensions vary by range and are not all confirmed in the current data, so treat each product page’s measurements as the deciding factor.

If space is genuinely tight, a smaller corner will sit more comfortably than squeezing in a large one, so it is worth also looking at our small corner sofas range before committing. Mark the full footprint on your floor first.

Measuring and delivery access

Corner sofas are among the largest items we deliver, so access deserves real attention. Measure the width and height of every doorway, hallway, stairwell and tight turn each section must pass through, plus lift dimensions if you are above ground level, and note the diagonal clearance on corners.

Delivery to England and Wales is free and handled by our two-person team. Whether a sofa splits into sections for delivery is not confirmed in the current data, so confirm the packaged dimensions before your delivery date; full details are on our delivery information page.

Caring for a fabric or velvet corner sofa

Vacuum fabric gently with an upholstery attachment and blot spills promptly rather than rubbing. For the Scott velvet, brush the pile in one direction to keep it even and treat spills gently. Keep both out of prolonged direct sunlight to protect the colour, and plump the cushions regularly so a corner sofa wears evenly across its length.

Specific care codes are not confirmed in the current data, so always follow the care label on the individual product and test any cleaning product on a hidden area first. For sleeping options in a corner shape, see our corner sofa beds range.

Stock, the sale and why choose Furniture Instore

At the time of writing most of the selection is available to order, with a few designs sold out (including the Verona scatter grey, the Rupert beige and the Scott velvet).

Every item is currently reduced; the lowest in-stock price is shown in the page’s meta information, and no prices appear in this body copy.
