Broyhill Sectional Sofa Collection
Our Raphael sectional brings clean lines and plush seating to your space with a modular design that adapts to any room layout. Designed with high-density foam cushions wrapped in soft polyester blend upholstery, this piece balances contemporary style with everyday comfort.
We engineered the Raphael with a low-profile silhouette and reversible chaise configuration, so you can anchor your living room exactly how you need it. The neutral tones and track arms complement a range of décor styles, from minimalist to transitional.
Construction & Comfort Details
Construction & Frame Quality
Every Broyhill sectional starts with a kiln-dried hardwood frame engineered for decades of use. We reinforce corner joints with glued dowels and metal brackets, then add eight-way hand-tied spring systems in our premium lines for responsive support.
Our craftsmen wrap high-density foam cores (1.8 lb density minimum) with polyester fiber batting to prevent premature sagging. This layered approach delivers comfort that lasts well beyond the typical sectional lifespan. We finish frames with webbing and dust covers to protect internal components.
Sectional Configuration & Sizing
Measuring Your Space
Before selecting a Broyhill sectional, measure your room’s usable floor space and note doorway widths for delivery access. Our standard chaise extensions add 60-70 inches to overall depth, while corner units typically occupy 35-40 inches in each direction.
Leave 30-36 inches of clearance between your sectional and coffee table for comfortable movement. Wall clearance of 3-4 inches helps with cleaning and prevents scuff marks on painted surfaces.
Upholstery & Fabric Care
We source performance fabrics engineered for real-world durability across our sectional line. Polyester blends resist pilling and fading, while linen-blend options deliver textured visual interest with similar stain resistance.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Vacuum cushions weekly using an upholstery attachment to remove dust and debris from seams. Blot spills immediately with a clean white cloth—avoid rubbing, which can spread stains deeper into fibers.

Broyhill Sectional Sofa Questions
Reversible sectionals like our Raphael model feature a chaise that can be positioned on either the left or right side during assembly, giving you flexibility to match your room layout. Fixed sectionals such as the Castillo arrive in a set L-shaped configuration.
Reversible designs use universal connection hardware that works on both sides, while fixed configurations may offer deeper seating or specialized corner features. Both styles provide the same frame quality and cushion comfort—the choice depends on your layout needs and whether you might rearrange in the future.
Start by measuring the longest wall where you plan to place the sectional, then measure perpendicular depth available for any chaise or L-extension. Note doorway widths (standard 32-36 inches) along the delivery path to ensure pieces will fit through.
Add 30-36 inches of clearance between the sectional edge and your coffee table for comfortable walkways. Leave 3-4 inches between the back of the sectional and the wall for air circulation and cleaning access. If ordering a corner unit, measure diagonally across that space to confirm the piece will fit without blocking windows or walkways.
Our Haven modular sectional features removable cushion covers that are machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water—tumble dry low or air dry to prevent shrinkage. For sectionals with attached upholstery like the Raphael and Castillo, spot-clean using a mild detergent solution and white cloth.
Test any cleaning solution on a hidden area first to check for colorfastness. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive scrubbing which can damage fabric fibers. For deep cleaning of attached upholstery, we recommend professional services every 12-18 months to maintain warranty coverage and fabric integrity.
All Broyhill sectionals include a limited lifetime warranty on the hardwood frame against structural defects and breakage under normal use. Cushion cores and suspension systems carry a five-year warranty, while upholstery fabrics are covered for two years against manufacturing defects.
Our warranty requires registration within 30 days of delivery and covers repair or replacement at our discretion. Normal wear, stains, fading from sunlight, damage from improper care, or misuse are not covered. Keep your proof of purchase and contact our customer support team to initiate any warranty claims.
Yes, we design our sectionals to ship in components that fit through standard 32-36 inch residential doorways. Larger sections may require removing legs (which screw in during assembly) or temporarily removing door hinges for tight clearances.
Our white-glove delivery team handles these logistics during installation. For DIY delivery, check the individual box dimensions listed in your order confirmation—largest components are typically 40-44 inches at the widest point when angled. If you have unusually narrow doorways or hallways, contact our support team before ordering for specific guidance.
Absolutely—our Haven modular collection is designed for expandability over time. Individual components remain available for purchase, and the connection hardware stays consistent across production runs so new pieces integrate seamlessly with existing sections.
We recommend ordering additional modules in the same fabric color code to ensure the closest match, though slight dye lot variations may occur. Our customer service team can help identify compatible pieces and check current inventory for your specific upholstery selection. Most customers successfully expand their configurations 1-3 years after initial purchase.
Most customers complete sectional assembly in 45-90 minutes with two people using the included hardware and tools. Modular collections like Haven assemble fastest since pieces simply connect together, while larger L-shaped units require attaching legs and positioning multiple frame sections.
White-glove delivery service includes professional assembly by our trained technicians who typically complete setup in 30-40 minutes. All necessary hardware, hex keys, and detailed instruction manuals come in your shipment. Video assembly guides are available on our support website if you prefer visual step-by-step guidance during DIY setup.
