Answer
The ideal seat height for sofas and chairs generally ranges from sixteen to eighteen inches from the floor to the top of the seat cushion. This height allows most people to sit and stand comfortably without strain. Confirm seat height when buying furniture and test in-store or with digital mockups to ensure ergonomic comfort in your space.
