About Lovesac

We are a young-at-heart, fast-growing furniture company, dedicated to helping people fill their homes with Total Comfort. We do this by designing and innovating furniture solutions that are adaptable, washable, expandable, and delivered-right-to-your-door-able, allowing our customers to live the life they want to live.

Description

Our product line has grown a lot since our Sacs days, but our goal will always remain the same – to create truly adaptable, comfortable furniture that can be with you for life.
