Will a sofa (292x241x86 cm) fit in a room?
Expert analysis
A sofa measuring 115 in × 95 in × 34 in fits in a room, with about 8.5 in to spare at the tightest point.
It fits with clearance on every axis.
Your sofa will fit in the room, though the walkways will be tight.
Handling: Position the item in the room using the orientation that maximizes walkway clearance.

How the room-fit check works
A room is a 2D footprint — width and depth matter for placement, plus the walkway gap left between the item and walls or other obstacles.
- Place the item footprint inside the room rectangle in the orientation it will be used.
- Compute walkway gaps from each item edge to every wall and to other obstacles in the room.
- Take the minimum walkway gap — that’s the daily-traffic clearance the room must support.
- Verdict ladder (getRoomVerdictTier): walkway <18 in DOESN'T_FIT; 18–24 VERY_TIGHT; 24–36 TIGHT; 36–48 FITS; ≥48 confident FITS.
Walkway thresholds use standard ergonomic minimums; a confident mover may negotiate gaps tighter than the recommended tier.
