They're cute, they're cheap, and they'll go with almost any table. The rounded backs also make them *so* much more comfortable than most dining chairs. "Great quality. Looks really expensive," writes one reviewer. "Goes great with my eclectic/mid-century decor!"
Poufs are probably the most versatile pieces of furniture, and that is why we love them so. Are they chairs? Yes. Are they footrests? Yes! Are they tables? Also yes!!! This two-toned braided jute option is filled with shape-retaining beads, so it'll stay pouf-y no matter how often ya put it to use. It's also super lightweight, so you can move it around without an achy-breaky back.
Wait...is this the trendy new restaurant that just opened in town, or is this your dining room? The world will never know!!! We're obsessed with the gold-tipped black legs on these bbs, as well as the intricate nailhead detailing lining the backs. They're also available in any neutral color you may need, including navy, black, and grey.
As Fat Joe once beautifully proclaimed: "Lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back." You can certainly do just that with this plush lil recliner, which can be adjusted to three different positions from 90 degrees to 180 degrees. It also comes with an ottoman to rest your pretty feet, all for a little over $200!
Often you have to settle for something a little less cute in order to stay within your budget. But when it comes to these faux-leather dining chairs, that is not the case. For just about $60 each, these retro-chic chairs are perfect for the kitchen, dining room, or living room, and look way more expensive than they are. The leather-like material is also waterproof, so you can wash any spills right off.
She's velvet! She's scalloped! She's sturdy! What more can you ask for out of an accent chair, really? "Bought this to use as a desk chair in my room, and I looovvvee!!" writes one reviewer. "Color is bright, velvet is so soft, and chair is extremely comfy. So so happy with this purchase."
The rattan backrests! The sleek silver accents! The comfy velvet cushions! If mid-century modern is the vibe you're going for, then you can't get much more on-brand than with these (and DW if the yellow isn't for you—they also come in five other funky shades).

Elevated folding chair? Yes, please. Between the shiny gold legs and genuine leather, this butterfly chair feels way more luxe than its price tag lets on—and it's also a near-perfect dupe for this v popular West Elm chair, which retails for almost $500.
Does she shed? Admittedly, yes, a lil bit. But like your beloved fur baby, this gorgeous swivel chair is well worth the extra maintenance (and it'll make your home office look cozy and chic AF, no?).
If you live for a pop of color, then this one's for you. The cozy, wingback style will keep you couched, and the simple-but-contemporary style will add substance to any room. And because math isn't fun, we did it for you: At $279 for two, they're just under $140 a pop.
Simply place this tufted linen bench at the end of your bed or up against a wall in your foray for instant calming vibes. And as a bonus, it's SO easy to assemble, since the legs just screw right on. Loveeee it.
