1. A reclined lounge chair you can sink into as you catch up on the latest Vanderpump Rules and Love Island drama.
2. An acrylic coffee table so crystal clear, guests will assume you're *really* on top of your cleaning. To the same point — reviewers suggest placing at least a coffee table book or two on top or you could walk straight into it!
Promising review: "This table is beautiful. Packed remarkably well. I’ve had it a few months now and just love it. Makes my small-ish living room look so much larger." —susan e smith
Get it from Amazon for $165+ (available in three sizes).
3. A combined floor lamp and end table if you're 1. Trying to save space or 2. Just absolutely enamored (like any sensible adult) with multitasking pieces.
Promising review: "I was looking for a lamp of this style and happened to come across this one. It had no reviews so I was suspicious, but for the price I took the chance. Best gamble ever! This lamp is so beautiful and the quality is amazing. The marble base is like real, sturdy marble. Gold finishing looks so expensive. Table is not flimsy at all. I absolutely love it and can’t believe I was able to find this for such a deal." —Sarah Diaz
Get it from Amazon for $79.49+ (available in two lampshade colors).
4. A set of mid-century modern dining room chairs I could honestly stare at for a good hour. The rattan! The velvet! The cantilevered design! ::swoon::
Edloe Finch is a Black-owned small furniture business based in Houston, Texas. The brand comes from husband-and-wife duo Darryl and Jessica Sharpton. The former NFL linebacker is also the man behind Albany Park.
Get a set of two from Edloe Finch for $313.
5. A space-saving ladder desk that might just convince you to stop working from bed. Sure, it doesn't have the benefit of six pillows and a duvet, but your spine won't be bent like a cheese curl and you can actually show your background on Zoom.
Promising review: "I had this blank corner in my living room, and I just knew this ladder desk would be a gorgeous addition to the area. I don't have an extra room for an office or even the kind of space in our small home to designate to a bulky desk. It was very easy to assemble. It took maybe 25 minutes to put together. I love having my own spot to get my work done on my MacBook. Plus, this spot is perfect to work on any crafts/DIYs. I added a pouf seat instead of a chair just to save even more space since it easily slides underneath the desk. Anyway, I'm so stoked about this purchase! I highly recommend it." —Heather Nicholson
Get it from Amazon for $149.69+ (available in three finishes).
6. And a TikTok-viral padded office chair with adjustable height, a curved backrest, and — the real pièce de résistance — a seat that's wide enough for you to sit criss-cross applesauce.
Check it out on TikTok here!
Promising reviews: "Buy this chair. I’ve bought so many office chairs over the years. The classic Goldilocks story: This one’s too bulky, this one’s too flimsy, that one has too much hard plastic, yada yada. I think this one might be it. Really comfortable, solid build, attractive, but the best feature is the wide seat. I can crisscross my legs easily to relieve the pressure in my hips, which is life-changing if you’re chained to your desk sitting in meetings all day." —Larissa Harrison
Get it from Amazon for $219.99.
7. An ultra-unique vinyl stand (with storage!) made from a refurbished newspaper box. That way, you can take your records out of the cardboard box they've called home for the last year.
Impact Racks is a small biz that refurbishes and repurposes used newspaper boxes. They're actually the supplier of said boxes (to publications like The New York Post, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and USA Today) so when one is ready to be retired, they swoop in and transform it into a record stand! Not only do they *look* incredibly cool, but each one sold keeps around 85 pounds of metal out of the landfill!
Promising review: "Literally the best customer service ever!! I absolutely love my box. It’s so unique and creative and perfect for my vinyl collection and stand. It’s my favorite piece of furniture. But really I cannot say enough great things about Jon and how much he cares about his products and customers. Thank you so much!! I highly recommend him and don’t think twice about purchasing from him." —moberg135
Get it from Impact Racks on Etsy for $399 (available in 27 styles so you can pick your favorite publication).
8. A vintage-esque wall-mounted headboard that I audibly gasped at after comparing the low price to the gorgeous reviewer photos. Some things *should* be too good to be true, and this is one of those things!
Promising review: "Ohhh... I've been chasing this headboard for a while, always out of stock... But I finally caught it in stock, ordered, received and mounted to the wall. You just look how cool it is! It is not as heavy as I thought it would be, that's a plus. I (a woman, 28) mounted it myself, feeling like a handyman over here. 😎😆 Anyway, I love the style of this headboard. Very unique. Now I gotta find matching nightstands 🙄" —Xenia
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes Twin–King and in nine colors/styles).
9. A Floyd media console with a streamlined design that works perfectly as a TV stand or — when you eventually move into a place with more room — as part of a larger modular shelving system.
The powder-coated steel and wood console also features magnetic cord management, media device shelving, and optional cabinet add-ons.
Promising review: "Such great design and solid construction are so hard to find in the same item. The media console is clean, sleek, and complements other furnishings. I love the magnetized cord organizers as well. American-made, timeless style, durable, and modular. Perfection." —Wade S.
Get it from Floyd for $612.50+ (originally $875; available in three styles, three colors, and two wood finishes).
10. A 3-in-1 convertible chair guaranteed to unfold at the *exact* angle you prefer when watching TV. Use it as a regular chair, a chaise, or bed (that way you don't have to pull your mattress into the living room).
Promising review: "The thing with chair-beds is that beds need to be firm to be comfortable, but chairs need to be soft to be comfortable. This chair is firm, but not hard. It's nice and wide — reminds me of a chair-and-a-half. I like it a lot. I slept in it three nights and it was very comfortable. I have it in my guest bedroom with a twin bed so two people can use the room or just one with a chair. I kind of want another for my living room because you can also use it as a chaise lounge! Three uses is fantastic!" —Daisy
Get it from Amazon for $299.99+ (available in seven colors).
11. A contemporary end table if your space could use a little drip — both literally and figuratively.
Promising review: "I love the way it picks up color and plays with light and shadow. Amazing work of art. I highly recommend it. It arrived quickly, was boxed very well, and was super easy to set up. Light enough but also sturdy enough to stand safely." —Susan Stec
Get it from Amazon for $155.73+ (available in four finishes).
12. A discreet upholstered bed that looks like any ol' frame, until you lift up your mattress (with the aid of hydraulics) to reveal loaddddddddds of storage space where you can store off-season clothes or just the bag of Haribo gummies you don't want your partner to eat.
Promising review: "VERY well packaged and manufactured. Directions not the best (parts not labeled) but wasn't a big issue. Took about an hour to assemble (I have done lots of similar projects). The bed surpassed my expectations for detail, fit, and finish." —rickey busch
Get it from Amazon for $177.99+ (available in sizes Twin–Queen, with or without storage or trundle, and in 15 colors/styles).
13. A boucle storage bench where you can hide your favorite throw blanket. You know, the one you cuddle with every day but don't keep on the couch because it has a noticeable ketchup stain.
Promising review: "Super cute storage. Just what I needed with enough storage space for my needs. It was super easy to assemble, just screw the legs on. I love the texture of the fabric and shape of the ottoman. I would purchase this again." —mparker
Get it from Amazon for $159.99 (available in three colors).
14. A six-drawer dresser with room for both the clothes you do and don't wear (but won't ever part with).
PSA: Reviewers say you really need power tools and a partner to build this. If you're thinking about using a regular screwdriver, you will be in for 10+ hours of work.
Promising review: "Absolutely in love! The quality of this dresser is out of this world. Incredibly challenging to put together to say the least, especially if you’re attempting to do it alone, but the final product is amazing. 10/10 recommend!" —Bryan
Get it from Wayfair for $279.99 (originally $689; available in five finishes).
15. A gold floor lamp you can click on for added ambience while you check out what deliciously cheesy flicks The Hallmark Channel has scheduled this afternoon.
Promising review: "Beautiful and cool lamp... I love the color and the adjustable height. It really gives a contemporary but vintage vibe in our office/guest bedroom/sewing room. I was very happy to see that the base is weighted very well, so it will not tip over. We recently downsized to a lot smaller home and we needed a multipurpose room to look classy modern with a mix of vintage and global chic decor since we have modern furniture and antiques in the room. This floor lamp pulls the whole look together! Thank you so much for such a great lamp at an affordable price!" —Ducky
Get it from Amazon for $129.99 (available in three finishes).
16. An Anthropologie sofa so chic, you may just faint on it the second it's delivered. The good news is it's so soft, your aging Millennial bones won't even feel a thing.
Promising review: "This sofa is stunning in person! The colors of the woven print are bright and contrast nicely with the green velvet cushion and piping. The shape complements the materials beautifully and offers support. It is quite large and very comfortable — could definitely be used as an extra place to sleep!" —Ettamarie
Get it from Anthropologie for $2,698.
17. A bar cart/serving trolley perfect for showing off your collection of fine crystal (read: extremely cute $2 glasses you found at a thrift store).
Promising review: "I absolutely love this bar cart. I was looking for something to add to our dining room to make it more welcoming and hospitable and this was the perfect addition. It makes entertaining so much easier since I can move it around to where we are sitting. It took no time to put together and has held up really well. I love the sleek modern look and it goes so well with our other furniture. Would absolutely buy again." —Leslie Haymer
Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in three styles).
18. A Gatsby-esque velvet headboard with two built-in side tables so you have a place to put your drink that isn't the floor!
Promising review: "Absolutely in love with this headboard. It is EXACTLY as it looks in the photos, super high quality and has all the swanky vibes. Just like the other reviews say, it is super but also super easy to put together (did it by myself). My bed frame is a tall one so that is going to make the end tables a lil lower… but for me that's just fine. Overall the quality of this is beautiful and the style is very unique." —Crissa
Get it from Article for $699+ (available in Queen and King sizes and in two colors).
19. A backless counter-height bar stool with a comfy saddle seat where you can park your butt when it's time for breakfast. If only your oven popped out fresh blueberry muffins all on its own.
20. A accent chair so plush, it'll feel like you're sitting on a cloud and I mean a puffy cumulus one, not a thin lil' cirrus one. Just don't be surprised if guests ask if they can sit before doing so because it definitely looks like a show piece.
Promising review: "Exactly how it was described in the listing. This chair is very comfortable and the swivel makes it extra fun. I would recommend this chair for any household as the material is easy to clean against kid and pet stains." —Jodi
Get it from Wayfair for $399.99 (originally $899.99; available in seven colors).
21. A glass-and-gold console table on which you can display your most prized objets d'art even if they happen to be a baked-bean Furby sculpture and ~not~ a magazine-worthy spread of vases and vintage pieces.
Intrigued? The "Baked Beanby" — from Sophie G. Stark — is currently sold out, but you can get on their preorder list.
Promising review: "Great purchase and well worth it for the money. Sturdy, stylish, and not too bulky. You won't be disappointed. Setup time is less than 30 minutes. I liked it so much, I've ordered another one!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $101.99+ (available in five sizes and nine finishes).
22. An acrylic dog gate if you simply *refuse* to install one of those metal or wood ones that make your pup look like he's behind bars. Plus, this one takes up no visual space and doesn't have to be screwed into the wall — it's completely portable!
23. A barely there end table with *just* enough room for your Trenta iced guava tea with two pumps of classic syrup. It really is the perfect size because once you're finished, you won't have room to let cups pile up, you'll have to take care of them right away.
Promising review: "A lovely little addition to hold my morning coffee! It is sturdy and looks great and serves the purpose without taking up much room and the fact that the top is glass, it does not take up visible space either." —Rita R. Volpe
Get it from Amazon for $54.99 (available in two heights and 10 finishes).
24. A dramatic pendant light that'll draw eyes up and accentuate your incredible vaulted ceilings. (I'm not jealous...I LOVE my 8-foot NYC ceilings. 🙃)
Get it from West Elm for $399.
25. A geometric pedestal table on which you can eat your midday croque monsieur in enviable style. It's legit just a ham-and-cheese sandwich but it sounds SO much fancier in French??? 😩
Get it from Urban Outfitters for $699.
26. A trendy drum table with a fluted design that'll complement any chair or sofa it's placed next to — especially with a lil' greenery on top.
Promising review: "In love!! Such a good table. Nice color; it's not too light and it's not too dark. Good quality and works well as nightstand, too." —Yazmin Marie
Get it from Target for $120.
27. A four-poster canopy bed that'll make you feel like an absolute king or queen even if the only person waiting on you is your cat and it's because you're five minutes late feeding him dinner.
Promising review: "Fairly easy to assemble… Good directions and took probably about 45 minutes. Great quality and very sturdy. Looks absolutely adorable with the sheer curtains! Love it!" —michelle s
Get it from Amazon for $89.98+ (available in sizes Twin–Queen and in three finishes).
28. An upholstered headboard with an option perfect for you no matter what your style is. No, seriously, I'm not kidding — there are over 100 patterns and colors to choose from.
The Inside is a small home furnishings brand that partners with heritage design brands like Scalamandré and Old World Weavers. Each of their handmade headboards comes with legs and all the necessary hardware to attach it to your bed frame.
Promising review: "This is the second time I've ordered headboards from The Inside for my properties, they are beautiful and the price is right! These upholstered headboards add so much style to a space." —Patricia A.
Get it from The Inside for $385+ (available in sizes Twin–King and 104 colors/patterns).
29. A disco ball bar cart that's so stunning, every single person who crosses the threshold of your home *will* ask where you got it from.
Glam Globes is a UK-based small biz that creates unique disco-themed home decor.
Here's more from BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer:
"This is the best product I bought this year, actually! When I saw this disco ball bar cart on TikTok (and BTW, that TikToker also says it's their best purchase of the year!!), I just knew I had to have it. It's from a small biz based in the UK and while it did take a while to arrive (as I expected), it was *well* worth the wait. The light bouncing off the mirror fragments and onto my walls is just dang beautiful. Between the bottom tray and the space inside the globe (yes, the globe OPENS UP!), there's a nice amount of storage for bottles and glassware. And unlike regular bar carts, the things you keep inside the globe will actually stay dust free. I bought the 'champagne' color (which is a nice neutral cream-beige) but it comes in tons of colors that'll go perfectly with your home decor. "
Get it from Glam Globes on Etsy for $262.45 (available in three colors).
30. And a shoe cabinet narrow enough to fit in tight mudrooms, entry halls, and foyers. At minimum, it holds six pairs of sneakers, slip-ons, or sandals — that way they're not strewn all over the floor ripe for tripping.
Promising review: "Love this little shoe storage system. Fits 6+ pairs of shoes, and with 6 inches of depth it fits perfectly in tight spaces or behind doors. Really helped organize and clean up my front landing space of my townhouse. Came packaged fully assembled and included hardware. I ended up getting different drywall anchors from The Home Depot because I didn't like the ones that came with the cabinet, but otherwise no issues." —Lauren "LaLa" Peacock
Get it from Amazon for $169.95+ (available in two sizes).
You after sitting on your new couch and *not* a foldable lawn chair:
