• Configuration
• With or without a storage unit

Even though you can purchase either cushion type for both the Bondi Collection and the Custom Sofa Collection, the Bondi sofa cushions are 12 inches deep where as the Custom sofa cushions are 6 inches deep.
So we rank the Bondi as having more overall comfort because of it's above average depth.

• Lovesoft - synthetic fiber (extra cost)
• Down Blend - duck feathers and down mix (extra cost)
