Rhett Sectional Sofa | Modern L-Shape Seating by Acme Furniture
Our Rhett Sectional Sofa transforms any living space into a welcoming gathering place for family and friends. Designed with a reversible chaise and modular components, the Rhett adapts to your room layout and seating needs — whether you’re hosting 10 guests for movie night or creating an intimate conversation nook. The deep seat cushions feature high-density foam cores wrapped in down-alternative fiber for that perfect balance of support and sink-in comfort.
We upholster the Rhett in premium performance fabrics that resist stains, fading, and everyday wear. The solid hardwood frame and reinforced corner blocks ensure decades of daily use, while the low-profile track arms and tapered wood legs deliver a clean, contemporary silhouette. The Rhett arrives in four boxes with simple assembly — no tools required beyond the included hex key. We stand behind every Acme sectional with our 10-year frame warranty and white-glove delivery options in most metro areas.

Upholstery & Frame Construction
We build the Rhett Sectional on a foundation of kiln-dried hardwood sourced from sustainable North American forests. Each frame joint receives both wood glue and precision screws, then we add steel corner blocks at every stress point to eliminate wobble and maintain alignment even after years of use. The sinuous spring suspension system provides consistent support across the entire seat deck without sagging or creating uneven wear patterns.
Our performance fabric upholstery resists common household stains including coffee, wine, and pet accidents — most spills wipe clean with just water and mild soap. The tightly woven polyester blend maintains its color and texture through daily use, and the fabric meets 50,000 double-rub Wyzenbeek durability standards. We finish every Rhett frame with solid rubberwood legs in an espresso stain that complements all three upholstery colorways. The seat and back cushions feature removable covers with concealed zippers for easy spot cleaning.
Modular Design & Room Planning
The Rhett’s reversible chaise configuration gives you flexible layout options for both large and compact living rooms. Position the chaise on the left or right side depending on your traffic flow and focal points, then rearrange as your needs change without purchasing new furniture. The main sofa section measures 120 inches wide and pairs with the 88-inch chaise extension to create an L-shape footprint that maximizes corner space.
Recommended Room Dimensions
We recommend a minimum room size of 14 feet × 16 feet to accommodate the Rhett Sectional with comfortable walkways on all sides. Allow at least 30 inches between the sofa front and your coffee table, and maintain 18 inches of clearance behind the chaise for easy access to cushions and cleaning. Our interactive room planner tool lets you visualize the Rhett in your exact space using your room measurements and existing furniture pieces.
Seating Capacity & Comfort Specs
The Rhett Sectional comfortably seats 5 to 6 adults in typical conversation configurations, with generous 24-inch seat depth that accommodates various sitting positions. When you add throw pillows and arrange seating more casually, you can easily accommodate up to 10 people for movie nights and game days without anyone feeling cramped. The 18-inch seat height works well for most adults while remaining accessible for elderly family members and guests with mobility considerations.
Each cushion core starts with 2.0-density foam that provides firm initial support, then we wrap it in a 2-inch layer of plush down-alternative fiber for surface softness. This two-layer system prevents the pancake effect common in all-foam cushions while maintaining the cushion’s shape between uses. The attached back cushions measure 16 inches deep and feature the same foam-and-fiber construction for consistent comfort from seat to backrest. Our cushion care guide includes fluffing and rotation schedules to maximize the lifespan of your Rhett’s comfort layers.

Questions About the Rhett Sectional Sofa
The Rhett Sectional comfortably seats 5 to 6 adults in standard conversation seating. For casual gatherings like movie nights or game days, you can accommodate up to 10 people when using throw pillows and allowing for closer seating arrangements.
The main sofa section provides three generous seat cushions, while the chaise extension adds two to three additional seating positions depending on how guests arrange themselves. The 24-inch seat depth gives everyone enough personal space without feeling cramped.
Yes, the Rhett features a reversible chaise design that allows you to reposition it on either the left or right side of the main sofa section. The sectional brackets disconnect with the included hex key, and you can reassemble the configuration in the opposite orientation in about 20 minutes.
This flexibility is particularly helpful if you move to a new home or decide to rearrange your living room layout. The connection hardware is designed for multiple assembly cycles without loosening or wearing out.
Our performance fabric upholstery is specifically engineered to resist stains, pet hair, and the wear patterns associated with active households. The tightly woven polyester blend repels most liquids, giving you time to blot spills before they penetrate the fabric weave.
Pet hair doesn’t embed in the fabric texture like it does with traditional upholstery, so a quick vacuum or lint roller removes it easily. The fabric meets commercial-grade durability standards with a 50,000 double-rub rating, which translates to years of reliable performance even with daily use by kids and pets. We recommend keeping pet nails trimmed to prevent snags.
We include everything you need for assembly in the hardware package — you don’t need to supply any tools. The package contains a hex key specifically sized for the sectional brackets and leg bolts, along with color-coded photo instructions.
Two people can complete assembly in 45 to 60 minutes. The frame sections connect using pre-installed brackets that simply align and tighten. The legs attach with hand-tightened bolts that thread into metal inserts already secured in the frame corners. No power tools, drilling, or measuring is required.
Yes, our 10-year structural frame warranty transfers to subsequent owners as long as the sectional remains in residential use. The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship related to the hardwood frame, corner blocking, and sectional connection hardware.
The warranty does not cover normal wear to upholstery, cushion compression from use, or damage from misuse or accidents. If you transfer ownership, the new owner should contact our customer service team with the original purchase documentation to register the warranty transfer. We’ll update our records to ensure they receive full warranty coverage for the remaining term.
Yes, we sell replacement cushion covers separately for all three Rhett colorways — Charcoal, Slate Blue, and Warm Grey. This allows you to refresh your sectional’s appearance or change your color scheme without purchasing new furniture.
Replacement covers are made from the same performance fabric as the original upholstery and include the same concealed zippers and construction quality. You can order through our customer service team by providing your sectional’s SKU number. Lead time for replacement covers is typically 3 to 4 weeks since we manufacture them on demand.
Each seat position on the Rhett Sectional supports up to 300 pounds of static weight. The solid hardwood frame, reinforced corner blocking, and sinuous spring suspension distribute weight evenly across the structure to prevent stress concentration in any single area.
The sectional brackets connecting the main sofa to the chaise are rated for the combined weight of all occupied seats, so you don’t need to worry about the connection weakening under normal use. Our frame construction exceeds industry standards for residential furniture to ensure long-term stability and safety.
