Burrow’s Field Sofa: A Modular Beauty That Brings Effortless Calm to a Room

Updated

Burrow’s Field Sofa

A few months back my wife and I moved from Austin to Seattle. As part of the move we sold basically all of our furniture and decided to start afresh in our new home. 

Our new apartment is around 600sq feet, so we didn’t have a ton of room to work with, which we thought would make furnishing it quite difficult. 

Enter Burrow. 

Since its launch in 2016, Burrow has been focused on creating comfortable, innovative sofas and furniture with real-life practicality. We set our sights on the Field sofa as it looked like the perfect apartment-size sofa and I’m excited to share a detailed review with you here on Living Cozy.

Cozy
  • Straightforward and super fast delivery. 
  • Easy assembly and Burrow’s modular platform means it's easy to take apart and adapt to our needs. 
  • The seats are just right — not too soft and not too firm. 
  • Its polyester-based performance fabric is comfortable and easy to clean. 
Not so cozy
  • The Field is quite low profile, so if that’s not your thing it might not work for you.
  • The seat depth isn’t huge so without an ottoman you might not find enough space to really sit back and relax. 

Frequently Asked Questions

How comfortable is the Burrow Field Sofa?

The Field Sofa strikes a balance between supportive and relaxed. The seat cushions have a medium firmness that holds up well over time without feeling stiff, while the back cushions offer enough give to sink into comfortably during a movie marathon. It's the kind of sofa where you sit down for a minute and suddenly an hour has passed — supportive enough for upright sitting but forgiving enough for full-on lounging. 

How long does Burrow take to deliver the Field Sofa?

Burrow is known for fast shipping by DTC furniture standards. In-stock configurations typically ship within 5–10 business days, and because the sofa arrives in modular boxes, it can be delivered via standard shipping rather than freight. Our review unit was ordered on May 12 and arrived May 18. Custom configurations or high-demand periods may extend that timeline, but Burrow generally prioritizes speed. 

Is the Burrow Field Sofa easy to assemble?

Assembly is genuinely tool-free and takes most people around 20–30 minutes. The modular pieces connect with built-in hardware — you just line them up and press together. It's one of the easiest assembly experiences in the DTC sofa space, and if you ever move, disassembly is just as simple for getting through tight doorways and staircases. 

Is the Burrow Field Sofa worth the price?

At its price point, the Field competes well against other mid-range DTC sofas like the Article Sven or Castlery Adams. What sets it apart is the modularity — you can start with a loveseat and add sections later as your space or budget grows. The built-in USB charger is a nice bonus, and Burrow's fabric options (including pet-friendly performance fabrics) add real practical value. For a sofa you can customize, reconfigure, and move easily, the Field earns its price tag.

Choosing the Right Sofa for Your Space

Burrow has a range of three sofa collections right now: Nomad (its original sofa), Range, and Field. Each collection is modular in design and features a bunch of customization options. If you’d like to learn more about the Nomad or Range, check out our reviews below: 

The Field is Burrow’s newest sofa collection. Its design is driven by customer feedback and insights and the brand says its crafted to “support endless hours of sitting, lounging, and napping.”

The Field Collection starts at $595 (for an armchair) and goes up to $4,195 (for a spectacular 8-piece U-shaped sectional). Its modular design also means you can add new sections as your needs and home might change. 

In order to fit with individual needs and preferences, the Field Collection comes with a range of customization and configuration options.

  • It’s available in three colorways — Fog Gray, a subtle light gray; Carbon Gray, a smokey contemporary shade; and Plush Oatmeal, an off-white/cream color. 
  • You can choose from three leg options: Oak Finish, Walnut Finish, or Black Metal. 
  • Further personalize your sofa by adding an ottoman or sleep kit (to convert the Field into a sleeper sofa)

We went for the Field 3-Piece Sofa with an added Ottoman ($1,890) to create more space to kick back and relax.

Delivery and Assembly 

Burrow offers free shipping on all orders — and if you happen to order from its ‘Ready to Ship’ section, you could be amazed just how fast your new sofa arrives. Our sofa was ordered on May 12 and arrived on May 18. 

Burrow’s sofas are shipped in boxes, making them easy to move around your home and maneuver into the right spot in your living room. It also means you don’t have to worry about wrestling a full-size sofa through any tight hallways or doors. 

Burrow Sofa Boxes
Burrow ships its sofas in easy-to-move boxes.

Now, if you’ve ever had to built furniture at home, you probably have a few nightmare tales to tell. And honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect when the Burrow boxes arrived on my doorstep. Thankfully, though, it was straightforward to build from start to finish. 

Each part was ready to go and the sofa came together really easily. The tools needed to build the sofa also came in a neat pouch so it was easy to find what you were looking for at any moment.

Living with the Field Sofa

The Field fits perfectly in the corner of our living room, right next to the window overlooking some of Seattle’s lovely green spaces. It’s the perfect place to relax and wind down from the day or waste away the weekend with a good book of Netflix binge.

Our apartment has quite a minimalist style and the Field fits right in. But I feel like it’s versatile enough to work in almost any home and interior aesthetic. 

The Field has a seat depth of 21” — and it took me a little while to get used to the depth. Thankfully, the ottoman add-on gives us the extra space to kick our feet up when we need to.

The matching ottoman is handy for putting your feet up.

The Field also has quite a low profile with a seat height of 16” and a frame height of 28”. This works great in our living space but might not be perfect for everyone. The seat depth and height also seems to encourage good posture while sitting. 

Sitting on the Field Sofa

From the first sit, the Field was incredibly comfortable and I feel that Burrow got the cushions just right. They’re not too soft and not too hard. The Field isn’t the type of sofa to engulf you when you sit in it and that’s just what I like. Whether I’m working away on my laptop or laying back with a book, the Field accommodates my needs. 

A Versatile Sofa That Offers Value for Money

We’ve been living with the Field sofa for around six weeks now and we love it. It’s not only comfortable but it’s versatile and feels like it’ll be with us for a long time. 

The design is timeless and will work as our apartment here in Seattle evolves and I’m confident it’d also be coming with us anywhere we move too. The beauty of Burrow’s modular system also means the sofa can evolve with us if our needs change over the coming years.
