Furniture Stores in Austin: Why Couch Potatoes Is Different

If you search for "furniture stores in Austin," you'll find no shortage of options — big-box chains along I-35, online-only brands shipping from warehouses across the country, and a handful of local shops. But there's only one furniture store in Austin where your sofa is designed, built, and delivered locally: Couch Potatoes.

We've been a fixture in the Austin community since 2010, and we do things differently from every other furniture store in town. Here's why thousands of Austin families choose us.

We Build Your Furniture Right Here in Austin

Walk into most furniture stores and you're looking at products shipped from factories in China, Vietnam, or Mississippi. At Couch Potatoes, your sofa is built by hand in our own factory at 7521 N Lamar Blvd — the same building as our Central Austin showroom. You can literally walk through the factory and watch craftsmen building furniture while you shop.

Every frame is made from kiln-dried hardwood with sinuous spring suspension and high-density foam cushions. Because we manufacture in-house, we control the quality from raw lumber to finished product. No middlemen, no mystery factories, no months of waiting.

200+ Fabrics and Leathers — Your Choice

Big-box furniture stores offer you a sofa in 3-5 colors. At Couch Potatoes, you choose from 200+ premium fabrics and leathers:

• Performance fabrics — Stain-resistant chenilles, cryptons, and sunbrella-style options perfect for families with kids and pets
• Premium velvets — Rich, luxurious textures in dozens of colors
• Italian-tanned leathers — From Moore & Giles in Lynchburg, Virginia. Full-grain hides in the Hudson, Tribeca, and Brompton families

Not sure which fabric is right for you? Order up to 10 free swatches and see the materials in your own lighting before you commit.

Ready in Days, Not Months

Order a custom sofa from most online furniture companies and you'll wait 6-10 weeks. Some take 12-16 weeks. At Couch Potatoes, most custom orders are ready in days because we build everything locally. No container ships, no cross-country trucking delays, no "your order is on a boat somewhere in the Pacific."

No Pressure, No Commission

Our entire sales team is non-commissioned. Nobody's trying to upsell you to the most expensive sofa on the floor. Our team members are paid to help you find the right piece for your home and budget — whether that's an $800 fabric sofa or a $3,000 leather sectional. Browse at your own pace, ask questions, and take your time.
