Promising review: "I love this thing. Sure, it's not the fanciest piece of furniture but for the price you really can't go wrong. I got some 1/8" plexiglass to put on the shelves and it made a world of difference. I highly recommend this if you're short on space and money." —Bayta

Promising review: "We LOVE this bed. We've had it for almost a year and sleep in it every night. It made our two-bedroom condo a three-bedroom. It's the most comfortable bed we've ever owned. It's so comfortable that we're about to move and we're taking it with us and putting it our new bedroom." —Tamara

9. A side table laptop tray that might be the best micro home office option. Use this as a side table during the day and simply slide it over when you're tired of having your laptop in, well, your lap.
Promising review: "This was easy to assemble. It took me less than 10 minutes to put up. It's easy to move around because it is not too heavy yet very sturdy. I move this practically all day. Sometimes we use it as a table to eat in front of the TV but most of the time it's just used as a side table and a ‘catch all’ space. I have carpet flooring and it glides with no problem. The dark wood finish matches my gray modern and minimalist living room. We’re a young couple and this suits our taste!" —Dandamilmar
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
10. Or a genius convertible coffee table to help you efficiently work from your living room without sacrificing your aesthetic.

Promising review: "This table is everything I’ve been looking for and more! I get so many compliments on it and I love how one end slides and the other raises up! I just had a baby so having the ability to have the table lift helps hold items I need for her. The sliding end is next to my rocking chair so I am able to slide the table down over to put her bottle on the table as I’m rocking. It is also great for storage! I’ve been searching for the perfect table for at least three years and this is it!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $139.99.
11. A ceramic storage stool that's weather-resistant, so you can add this lovely touch to any room of your house *or* put it in your yard to keep your beloved bocce ball set out of sight until your grandma's ready for a rematch.

16. A pair of metal storage stools to add a charming, rustic touch to your living room while also adding some much needed storage for your growing throw blanket collection.

Promising review: "These cans are just what I was looking for. We're using the large can as a seat inside the front door. It's study and looks like an old galvanized can. The wooden top is thick and made of planks. I plan to store birdseed in the large can and vacuum parts in the smaller one." —adkmeg
Get them from Amazon for $99.99.
17. Or a faux leather storage bench that'll easily blend in with any aesthetic *and* easily store a closet's worth of stuff.
Hi hello I have this and love it. I cut a hole on one side and use it as a hidden litter box in my apartment. There is plenty of room inside to store the box of fresh litter, a scoop, air fresheners, and the actual litter box. Even with all that stuff in it I'm able to place the litter box far from the entrance, meaning (with the help of litter mats I have at the bottom) no litter ever comes out onto my floor! I dig this item. A lot.
Promising review: "These are absolutely wonderful. I purchased two for my dining room to create the look of a built-in seating area. (above, right) I am very satisfied with the product and having extra storage when I need it is great!!!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $53.99+ (available in five colors).
18. A corner TV console sure to help you put your furniture in the most practical spots, even if you want everything facing the TV in your L–shaped living room.

Promising review: "This is a cute TV stand! It fits in with our mid-century house and style. I wanted a corner TV stand and one that would blend into the other natural wood around it. This came assembled except for the legs, so putting it together was easy. It was packaged extremely well and arrived undamaged. There was a strong smell from the wood stain but it aired out in just a few hours (we put it in the garage). The measurements are correct but it is 43 inches at its widest, towards the front – not where you would put your TV. We had to buy a new base for the TV or it would not have worked. Our TV is 50 inches. Overall, I am very happy with the purchase." —Rachel
Get it on sale from Wayfair for $439.99 (originally $579.99).
19. Or a rustic version for bringing out your best barn house aesthetic.

Promising review: "It was so hard to find a nice corner TV unit but I’m so happy we found this one! I love it! It gives our living room the perfect country feel! It arrived with a few marks but Wayfair did everything they could to make it right! Great quality! Highly recommend!" —Danielle
Get it from Wayfair for $759.99 (available in two colors).
20. A queen size velvet storage bed to help you hide all the clothes on your floor quickly when guests come over and the state of your bedroom is not all that, um, organized.

Get it from Jungalow for $210.
22. A striking five-tier shelf that'll easily hold all the one-trick pony kitchen tools you love collecting but hate shoving into your kitchen cupboards.

Promising review: "This is a great shelving unit! It replaced a smaller one I had for a number of years and it is far more attractive and useful than the old one. I have it in a corner of my dining room. It's a great mix of industrial and modern – a clean, contemporary look. It took my husband a very short time to assemble it with no issues. Don't hesitate to get this; you won't be sorry." —AngieBangie
Get it from Amazon for $89.99 (available in two colors).

Promising review: "This is a perfect table. My room is always changing but this table seems to go with everything. It's very functional and shockingly durable. It was definitely worth the buy. Plus if you like to have people over it's a great way to store floor pillows or blankets; or if you just want to hide some clutter you're not ready to part with. I would recommend this to any person looking for light table" —cherryjubilee723
Get it from Urban Outfitters for $149.

Promising review: "This is really pretty. I was excited to see the quality of the fabric. The overall quality of the bed is very good. All the pieces are either covered in fabric or nicely sanded. The seams are straight and there appears to be pride in the constriction. Assembly was easy as the tools needed were included. I am impressed and this bed will make a great addition to our guest bedroom. It really is beautiful." —Mom2FourBoy1Girl
