The dimensions of my living room are 181 inches (wide) by 144 inches (length). The dimensions of the sectional with the chaise are 149 inches (wide) x 94 inches (largest side). The sofa is 43 inches deep. Anyone have any good advice? :-)

Cut the newspaper into that shape and place it on the floor, you will then get a good idea of the size and if you can walk past it etc!

Whether or not the sectional will fit nicely depends on the locations of doors, windows, and other elements in your living room. The sectional leaves 32 inches walking space in the width & 50" in the length. If the sofa is being placed against two walls which meet in a corner, this should just fit, but you won't have room for end tables. Because sectionals look great with square coffee tables, a lack of end tables is not a bad thing -- you can safely opt for a square coffee table which is 36"X36", but I wouldn't go bigger than that because your room will start to feel cramped with furniture.
Many stores offer smaller sectionals, often referred to as "apartment size". It sounds like your living room would be better suited to something a bit more compact. Good luck.
