UPDATED JANUARY 2021
As promised, I’ve scoured the interwebs and found what I consider to be the seven best affordable leather sofas out there. And… wait for it… most have free shipping!
I shared a bit about our ultimate family room plans a little while ago. My aim was to make our home super cozy. The mood board nailed that feeling, and in it, I showed a beautiful leather sofa that we already own. I’ve had tons of people ask me about it and I squirm a bit when I share the source. It retails for over $5,000. Eek, I know, right?
If that’s your budget, this sofa is totally worth it, but I imagine most of us would prefer to spend a bit less…
We were fortunate enough to score ours off Craigslist for an unheard of $1900. TIP: If you are ever drooling over a brand or a thing you think you can’t afford, pop over to Craigslist every now and again and do a quick search for the brand. It can pay off big time.
All that said, I thought it would be helpful to round up the best affordable leather sofas for you guys. It seems you agree as it was the number 1 post last year according to you!

Affordable Leather Couches
Once I started researching, I was amazed by how many incredible options are available! All of these are under $2000 and five offer free shipping. I don’t know about you but I’ve become, perhaps unfairly, accustomed to free shipping on basically everything. When I have to pay for shipping on a piece of furniture I always balk. Even if it’s cheaper than another alternative I’m looking at. It’s ridiculous, but those are the ABCs of me.
This hunter green leather sofa is so incredibly luxe and unique. The Leon sofa actually comes in a BUNCH of different leather colors (along with other fabric options) so you can customize this to perfectly suit your home. I’m especially fond of that warm wood frame against the rich leather.
There is so much to love about the Holloway Leather Sofa. The tufted seat is GORGEOUS and the single bench cushion gives it such a sleek look. The other advantage of just one cushion is that you won’t get crumbs, dog fur, etc. migrating down into the center of your sofa.
Again with the single bench cushion — love! I’m also a big fan of that clean, sloped arm. This mid-century style beauty is by Amazon’s house brand Rivet. I’ve been seeing a lot of them lately — their collection is AWESOME. And so affordable! I urge you to go check them out immediately.
How to Start a Room Design
The Donny Leather Sofa is a great option if you love the look of leather but prefer to go faux. It’s a pretty convincing faux leather and the silhouette of this couch is so modern. Plus? It’s only $1,250.
The Louanne Leather Sofa sports the coolest brown tone of the bunch, making it a good choice when warm tones aren’t really your thing. I think this one would really shine as the leather started to break in a bit and develop a yummy vintage-y patina.
A reader recently emailed asking to see a sofa like the one in the cover photo of this post. Ask a ye shall receive! The Denmark Loveseat is its sister from another mister. Beautiful modern lines with that great partial channel tuft across the back. Unfortunately the shipping isn’t free, but the price is right at well under 2K.
So which leather couch is your favorite? If I were in the market for a new sofa, I’d go for that tufted leather beauty.
