The concept of a sofa both stylish and inexpensive sounds like an oxymoron, but it doesn’t have to be. It just takes some digging—and we did it for you. Team Domino found a convertible futon in a pale pink linen that easily wipes clean with a cloth, a slipcovered score that’s both comfy and machine washable, and—for the frequent movers—a two-seater that packs up neatly into a box. The best news: They’re all less than $1,500. ’Tis the season for curling up in comfort with a good book or your new favorite Netflix series.
