Debra/Wayfair
Promising review: “I wanted a modern coffee table that would let you see the design of the rug. Perfect. Came well packaged (given that it is glass) and is super durable tempered glass. We have two big dogs, and I’m confident it would hold up if they bumped into it.” —Janetta
Price: $339.99 (originally $519, available in two colors)
4.
A rolled-arm velvet sofa made of solid wood and with removable seat and back cushions. This baby lasts and will never go out of style, so you know it’s worth the money.
Teresa/Wayfair
Promising review: “Let me start by saying I was VERY leery buying something I’ve never seen in person. I also thought the back was going to be too low, but it’s not. Based on the reviews I dove in. I’ve had this couch almost two years, and it’s still beautiful! Its super comfortable to sit on and sleeps really well when you take the cushions off. I have pets (three cats and two dogs) so hair is a given. I get a damp towel and wipe it; all the hair comes off! My husband left a drool spot while sleeping, and I just wiped it off with a towel and water. The cushions are flippable, so if you favor a certain side of the couch, you can swap them around to keep the wear even.” —Andrea
Price: $1,350 (available in five colors)
5.
A velvet vanity swivel stool because you can never have too many extra spots to take a seat around the house. And velvet is always a yes.
6.
A marble-topped single vanity so you can make your bathroom a little more functional, without sacrificing space. With solid construction and a soft-close door, you’ll likely have this thing forever.
7.
A kitchen cabinet with a hutch and open storage to hold all of your cooking tools, pots, ‘n’ pans, even a microwave all in one place. Small space-ers, this one’s for you!
8.
A wooden wine bottle and glass rack that holds up to 24 bottles (yeah, you heard that right) — so you can become an amateur sommelier. No need to drill any racks or shelving into your wall now!
9.
A rustic salvaged wood-inspired entertainment center so your TV and gadgets can sport a beachy ~vibe~. It’s got plenty of shelves and cabinets to hold your DVDs, games, and even room decor. Why settle for industrial and boring when you can have this?!
Wayfair
Promising review: “Absolutely love this entertainment center!!! I was skeptical on the price; I thought for sure it wouldn’t be good quality wood or materials considering the price of other entertainment centers. This is a beautiful piece. Solid wood for the heaviest part in a good way — not a bunch of cheap pressed wood or flimsy materials used. It’s very large and fits our 75″ TV perfectly! It’s just what we wanted. Also super easy to assemble; it all comes mostly put together. Which I was shocked by as well. There are literally like four bolts to install, and tools come with it. This is one of those lifetime pieces of furniture. I plan on keeping this for years to come.” —Jamie
Price: $2,049.99 (available in two colors)
10.
A gel memory foam mattress, because your sleep is absolutely worth investing in. Featuring ~cooling technology~ (yes, you heard that right), you’re about to experience the most comfortable sleep of your life.
Wayfair
Promising review: “It’s just what I needed. It’s super comfortable with the right amount of firmness. I was a little scared when I noticed it didn’t fully expand, but it did take a few days. I usually get really hot at night, and it hasn’t been happening with this mattress.” —Natazha
Price: $231.99+ (originally $279.99+, available in sizes Twin–King)
11.
A farmhouse-style trestle dining table with a self-storing leaf built right in, so no matter what size dinner party you want to have, you’ll be prepared for it.
12.
A metal bedframe to provide the ultimate sleepy-time coziness. With its round finials and gently arched headboard and footboard, this has a super unique silhouette. Oh, and there’s no box spring required!
Molly/Wayfair
Promising review: “This bed is beautiful. It’s very simple, but that is what we wanted. It took about 30 minutes to put together with two of us, and the instructions were easy to follow. The boxes came a little beat up, but none of the pieces were damaged. Love that it comes with two height options. We chose the higher of the two, but kept the parts to make it lower if we choose to at a later time. It’s white, but not an overly bright white. Fits in perfect with the farmhouse theme.” —Tami
Price: $215.92+ (originally $364+; available in sizes Full–King and in five colors)
13.
A wooden jewelry armoire with a mirror that will add a classic style to your room without taking up a ton of space. Looks like your necklaces and bracelets just found their new forever home!
14.
A comfy-cool sleeper sofa, because having an extra spot for guests to crash is never a bad idea. This brightly colored, square-armed pick doesn’t just turn into a bed, either; it also has hidden storage in the seat. Talk about a functional piece of furniture that’s built to last!
Jennifer/Wayfair
Promising review: “Love my beautiful bright yellow couch! It’s everything I wanted! The color is true to the pictures on Wayfair’s website — real yellow. The fabric is soft to the touch, very nice. The couch is firm. You won’t sink inside it. The storage underneath is huge. The bed will accommodate a tall person and over 400 pounds. I put this couch on my loft, and it fit just perfectly! I received it yesterday and can’t get off it!” —Esther
Price: $1,799.99 (originally $1,899.99, available in five colors)
15.
A chic fire table so you can enjoy your outdoor spaces all year long, day and night. It’s made of weather-resistant steel, and is fueled by a (hidden) propane tank so it’s super easy to use — no coal required!
16.
An industrial-chic desk to boost your WFH setup’s style by a mile. It’s got a ton of surface area for all your papers and knickknacks, as well as two shelves on either side. If you’re looking for storage, look no further!
17.
A mid-century modern-inspired dresser that’ll give your most stylish wardrobe pieces somewhere equally stylish to call home. Its made of solid pine, so it’s trendy *and* durable.
Wayfair
BTW, reviewers note that it’s quite a task to assemble this one — but also that’s TOTALLY worth it for the end result.
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
Price: $449.99 (originally $689; available in three colors)
18.
A kitchen island about to change your kitchen counter space game. Plus, it’s got a two-door cabinet, three drawers, a towel bar, and to top it all off — it’s on wheels!! (So you can transport it around wherever and whenever you please.)

Sharon/Wayfair
Promising review: “A surprisingly heavy piece, but it’s perfect for our space. My fiancé was in desperate need of jewelry storage and had a ton of it spread out all over the room. … We’ve [also] used the back shelf for candles. By far my favorite thing about this piece is the revolving mirror. It’s creepy to have the mirror face our bed, so we turn it around at night. The stain and finish on this looked awesome.” —Gavin Mitchell
Price: $234.99 (originally $263.88, available in three colors)
22.
A cherry-stained wooden armoire giving The Chronicles of Narnia vibes. I mean who wouldn’t want a gateway to a secret kingdom in their bedroom?
23.
A colorful tufted chaise because you deserve a fancy place to sit at the end of a long day. Can’t you just picture yourself kicking back here with a glass of rosé? Perfection.

A ladder bookcase so you can display all of your most favorite collectibles like books, plants, and photos with a classic yet rustic feel.
Wayfair
Promising review: “Beautiful bookcase! I ordered two in chalked chestnut. The color is gorgeous, and the texture of the material really takes the piece up a notch. Assembly is a breeze; I was able to put the second bookcase together sans instructions. Worth the purchase!” —Tiffany
Price: $217.99 (available in four colors)
27.
A wooden rocking chair because it’s coastal grandmother season, and this is the perfect first step to completing the aesthetic.
