Unique Features
Racha Pharaon says that the style of the Alani sectional is the perfect combination of modern and classic design. Its clean lines and simple silhouette portray modern characteristics while the traditional rounded arms and the plush back cushion keep it slightly classic.
“The shape, style, and design of the Alani Sectional is very comparable to the La-Z-Boy’s Paxton Sectional,” according to Racha.
Alani’s popular rolled arms, welt trim, and decorative wood legs give the sectional a stylish appeal. Further, 20-inch accent pillows with welt trim only enhance the overall comfort and style of the Alani.
Hosting high-grade foam seat cushions, the Alani offers plenty of support. Racha says the cushions have a firmness to them, while still providing a comforting softness. Personal comfort aside, the appearance of the Alani cushions is maintained with double-picked blown fibre fill for long-lasting shape retention.
Given its deep seats, the Alani is best suited for taller individuals when seated, but the depth also allows for comfortable lounging, making it perfect for people of all heights to lie down and relax.
While your height can be a considerable factor, it is important to note that height guidelines are NOT set in stone. The way you sit in a furniture item can drastically affect how someone might find a seat comfortable.
This is why we highly recommend coming in-store and taking a sit test to determine if the Alani is right for your unique body type. To learn more, take a look at our article How to Find a Sofa That is The Best Fit For You.

Is the Alani Sectional Right for You?
There is no question that the Alani Sectional is a beautiful piece of furniture. But is it right for you?
Generally speaking, The Alani Sectional offers a blend of functionality and style, making it a versatile choice for many different homes. Its deep, wide seats provide ample space for lounging, making it ideal for families who enjoy shared seating or those who love to stretch out and relax. The modular design allows you to customize the sectional’s configuration to fit your room, whether you have a large or small space, offering flexibility for various layouts.
In terms of style, the Alani combines modern and classic elements. Its clean lines and rolled arms create a balanced, transitional look that works well in both contemporary and traditional interiors. However, the Alani’s deep seats may not be for everyone. According to Racha, while perfect for lounging, those who prefer a more upright or structured seating experience may find the Alani too soft or enveloping. Additionally, as a stationary sectional, the Alani doesn’t offer reclining options, which could be a drawback for those looking for more flexibility in seating positions.
To learn more about the comparison between stationary and reclining furniture, take a look at this article.
Ultimately, the Alani Sectional is a great choice for those seeking comfort, customization, and a stylish design. Its flexibility makes it suitable for a wide range of homes, but if you prioritize upright seating or reclining features, you may want to consider other options.
