Our Verdict

4 / 5 STARS

Design lovers and craftsmen rejoice—Inside Weather has the most custom product out there (probably too many options tbh). They seem to be the only brand actually producing in America and have impressive sustainability initiatives and materials across their catalog (e.g. The water bottle sofa).

Customization Options

Inside Weather allows you to customize most features of their sofas.

Bondi Collection:
• Upholstery
• Wood finishes
• Cushion comfort
• Configuration

Custom Sofa Collection:
• Upholstery
• Wood/metal finishes
• Pillow/cushion shape,
• Leg style
• Tufting
• Arm style
• Cushion comfort
• Configuration

They have by far the most customization out of all brands we've looked at, so if you want a ton of control, take a look at their options.

Comfort

• Deluxe Memory Foam Blend - sink-in comfort
• Classic Plush Blend - firm yet cushy

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.

Modularity

The chaise on sectionals can be put on either side so you can change it at any time and don't have to worry about choosing the side upon purchase.
Their Bondi Collection allows you to remove the arms or back panels to then turn say a 3-seater sofa into a 2-seater sofa with a chaise.

Special Features

• Removable cushion covers
• Pillows and cushions are reversible
• Air-mesh interior covers -- breathable material adding durability
• Throw pillows and bolsters available

Dream couch!

Love this couch! It’s like having a big day bed! I love how truly modular it is, we’ve ordered some more arm pillows to put behind the back cushions for when we have guests or just want to sit a bit more forward. Service has been great from ordering to delivery - recommend white glove option. We had an issue with one of the cushion covers arriving slightly damaged & IW we’re quick to send a replacement & assist with a few additional items we wanted to order.

Vintage Spiced Velvet

Worth the wait. I love this spicy velvet fabric. It feels so retro, but also very modern. It is also very comfortable. We had some issues with the cushions moving, but I think the people that put it together didn’t do it just right, so we took the cushions off and rearranged a bit and all has been well now. Love the look!

Beautiful, Comfortable, Pet Friendly Sofa

We are so in love with our new Bondi three-seater sofa in mascarpone. In order to place the sofa away from a wall we needed something our multiple cats really would not scratch up and the wooden back panels on the Bondi effectively limit their destructive capabilities. That all of the covers zip off and can be cleaned with water and/or solvent is an extra bonus in our household which includes three cats and two dogs. But equally important, the sofa is so beautiful and so comfortable. It just looks amazing in the living room of our new home. We are very happy with our purchase.
