Pros
- The shape is clean and inoffensive
- The upholstery gives it visual interest
- Lovely high-quality leather
- Can be bought as a larger sofa, as well as a sectional
Cons
- Look might not be for everyone
Leather looks good in simple, classic shapes, but we really love when it’s fun and funky. This Strato sofa from CB2, designed by Mermelada Estudio, is the perfect middle ground.
The sharp rectangular shape is clean and geometric, making the sofa look quite modern. But the rounded sections of the sofa give it some visual interest and character, which makes it feel less sterile. Add to that some of the best natural leather on this list, and you’ve got a sofa that looks incredible now but will only get better as it develops a unique patina. It’s something that fits in every home, and everyone will be able to make their own.

One reviewer shared five reasons why they love this piece, writing, “First, this came in three easy boxes. The packaging was sturdy and it felt like they took care to ensure no damage. We inspected the sofa upon unpacking and there were no perceptible damages. Second, easy to install! You simply click them together. Three, super comfortable: it’s more plush than most leather couches I’ve had. Even our little Frenchie finds it super comfortable. Four, durable: seems to be able to withstand lots of weight so far. The leather doesn’t scratch easily either, which is nice. Five, it’s beautiful.”

It’s still super comfy, it holds up pretty well since I have a four-year-old who forgets I don’t want her jumping on it lol. And messes are super easy to clean, you just wipe it up. I have never had such a comfy, easy-to-maintain, good-looking couch before. Especially for the price, total steal.”
