Our Methodology

When we test a sofa, we put it through multiple rounds of testing. We evaluate how it works with different body types, as well as how it performs overall. We want to bring you the most accurate information possible, which is why we test the firmness of the cushions, the construction of the sofa, and how easy it is to clean.

Sofa Details

The Noa Sloan Sectional comes in two different options, catering to small and larger families alike. The three-seat sectional offers a chaise lounge on either the left or right, whereas the five-seat corner sectional is perfect for larger rooms. Available in two neutral different colours, the polyester fabric was soft and plush.

We liked the firmness of the sofa, which was softer than most options on the market yet still looked like a more structured, modern sofa. The Noa Sloan had a slight bounce to the coil springs within the frame, but we never felt like we were sinking into the sofa. Each sectional comes with two throw pillows for added comfort.

Sofa Construction

Whether you choose a smaller three-seat sectional or a larger five-seat sofa, they are made with identical, high-quality materials.

  • Sofa Cover: Made from 100% super soft polyester, the sofa cover on the frame and cushions look crisp and inviting.
  • Cushions: The back and seat cushions are made from plush polyester fiberfill wrapped in a heavy-weight sheeting to keep the material from bunching and shifting.
  • Frame: Crafted with eco-friendly construction, the frame of the Noa Sloan is made from kiln-dried wood, ensuring long-term durability.
  • Throw Pillows: The interior of the throw pillows is made from 100% goose down, while the covers are made from the same soft polyester material as the sofa.

Sofa Performance Test Results

We evaluate every sofa based on its most important features, such as the firmness of the cushions, the bounce of the sofa, its ease of cleaning, and the number of seating possibilities.

Firmness (6.5/10)

We look at the firmness of the materials in the cushions and how springy the base of the sofa may be. Soft sofas that you can sink into will score lower, typically under a 7 out of 10, whereas firmer, more supportive sofas will score higher.

Firmness Chart 6.5
The Noa Sloan is about a 6.5 on our firmness scale.

While we ranked the Noa Sloan sofa lower than average, that isn’t necessarily a bad thing! This sofa was softer than many others yet didn’t have the look of overstuffed pillows like some other plush sofas do. Pushing and sitting on the cushions, we sank into the sofa a bit without feeling trapped. We thought it was supremely comfortable, even if it didn’t offer firm support.

Ease of Care (7.2/10)

Our team looks at how easy it is to clean the cushions and frame of the sofa. Canadians with kids and pets should look for a couch that ranks 8 out of 10 or higher, whereas those who don’t tend to make as many messes will be happy with one that ranks lower.

We thought this sofa was moderately easy to care for but lacked the machine washability that we wished it had. While the cushion covers can be removed, spot cleaning is the only option if you spill, which could make this sofa less appealing to those with pets or children, especially since the sofa is fairly light in colour.

Seating Configurations (8.0/10)

Evaluating the sofa’s seating, how customizable the layout is, and the ability to add and remove seats helps us score its seating configuration. Those who want to be able to choose between multiple couch styles or be able to remove and expand seating should choose a sofa with a score higher than 8/10.

When it comes to seating options, we liked that the 3-seater sectional is designed for smaller living room spaces, and it had the ability to choose a left or right-side chaise lounge. The corner sectional is great for large families, and deeper than some other sectionals on the market. Our team scored the Noa Sloan sectional slightly better than average for seating configurations but wished we had more options to choose from overall.

Setup, Delivery, Risk-Free Trial & Returns

Setting up the Noa Sloan sectional was simple and it included a two-man delivery service, where your sofa can be placed inside your home in any room you choose. The 3-seater sofa was intact and ready to sit on right out of the box, but the corner sectional did require a bit of easy assembly to join the pieces together.

 Should You Buy a Noa Sofa?

The Noa Sloan sectionals sofas are a great pick for Canadians seeking a luxuriously modern sofa that has clean lines and soft cushions. The lack of washable cushions could be a deal breaker for those with pets and children and might be more appealing to those who have limited messes in their living spaces. While this may be out of the budget for some, we think that its long-term durability and comfort are worth the added cost.

FAQ’s

How much does a Noa Sloan Sofa cost?

A Sloan sectional sofa from Noa costs between $4299 and $4999, depending on which layout you choose. While this is a bit higher than some other sofas on the market, we were impressed with its fabric, modern look and comfort. If the cost is too high for your taste, Noa offers many other more affordable options as well.

Do I have to be home for the delivery of a Noa Sloan sofa?

Every Noa sofa is delivered by a private courier and comes with a two-man in-home placement service. You do need to be home in order for the sofa to be delivered and signed for, since this is not a modular sofa-in-a-box product. You can work with Noa to ensure an ideal time frame for delivery.

Do you have to assemble a Sloan sofa?

Noa sofas need very minimal assembly. The Sloan 3-seater sectional does not require any assembly and comes intact and ready to enjoy. The 5-seat corner sectional does need some assembly to connect the two larger pieces together, but it takes less than 10 minutes total with two people working together.

What do the cushions of a Noa Sloan sofa feel like?

While the look of the Noa sectional sofa is fairly structured and modern, the cushions are surprisingly soft and comfortable. We gently sank into the sofa when we sat on it but didn’t feel stuck or trapped. Those seeking a soft sofa will be happy with Noa Sloan’s firmness.
