1. A contemporary sling chair wide enough for you to comfortably sit crossed-legged. The look? Amazing. The square black metal frame is so minimal that it almost looks like the cushions are floating. 

Amazon

Promising review: "What a cool chair for the price. I've seen similar chairs in upper end furniture stores for 5x's the price. Easy to assemble, very sturdy, and a really good look for a modern/minimal look for your room. Super comfortable! I like that it is not a heavy looking piece of furniture and fits nicely into a corner.

Super happy with my purchase and would highly recommend if you're looking for simple style at a good price point!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in seven colors). 

2. A foldable sleeper chair that's basically a chameleon — by day, it's a comfy corduroy lounge spot, and by night, it unfolds into a legit sleep setup.

Promising review: "This is such a comfortable chair or bed! I was very happy with my purchase. You won’t go wrong if you are looking for comfort or if you need to save space. I highly recommend this." —danny

3. A sustainably made and absolutely gorgeous accent chair for the environmentally conscious consumer. The fabric choices are recycled fabric or environmentally-friendly hemp, the finishes don't off gas, and the wood is sourced sustainably. Oh, and it's soooo lovely to sit in.

Sabai is a woman-owned small furniture business making affordable luxury pieces out of sustainable materials.

Promising review: "I'm so happy I found this company! I love that it is woman-owned and seeks to create usable and attractive furniture with a clear vision of sustainability. I appreciate that each piece is built as it's ordered and that there is care in how it's packaged and shipped (no plastic packing material). As I write this, I'm sitting in my new velvet chair, which is sturdy, super comfortable, and very pleasing to the eye. Assembly is straightforward (although a bit time-consuming if one does it on one's own, as I did) but is doable and detailed clearly in the instructions. Grateful for my new chair!" —Monique

Get it from Sabai for $895+ (available in three fabric styles and five fabric colors).

4. A velvet tufted chair and ottoman that can swivel 360 degrees. The seat is extra thick — almost 14" of cushion — so if you like a plush seat, this is the one for you.

Amazon

Promising review: "This chair is the perfect size for me to sit and read books. I also take naps occasionally. I’m 180 pounds, and it’s very comfortable for me. After the easy assembly, the chair is super sturdy and continues to be when someone is on it. The price is great,t and this chair is worth it. It functions great in my room. We got the pink one, and it’s super cute." —Alison & Edward

Get it from Amazon for $159.99+ (available in nine fabric colors; clip the coupon on the product page to save $8).

5. A spacious accent chair as comfortable as it is pretty. This chair is amazing because of the way its seat and back cushions are designed: it's foam wrapped in feathers, so you get the aesthetic and feel of a firm cushion but the plushness of one that's filled with down.

Albany Park

Promising review: "Decided on this chair after lots of research and measuring. We have a small 600 sq. ft. house and needed a couch/chair that could hold two ppl if needed but not be huge…This chair is so comfortable to sit in many different positions.

Get it from Albany Park for $450+ (originally $819+; available in five fabrics and two leg options).

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "The chair does what it does. It’s comforting. You’re not sinking in the chair, nor is it too hard. It feels nice and cushioned, with no sharp edges or corners. It’s wide and long enough for all sizes and does its job. I currently use it for reading and studying." —Nick

Get it from Amazon for $139.98+ (available in nine colors and sets of two).

10. A modern lounge chair sleek and sophisticated enough to fit into a formal environment but comfortable enough to lounge in for hours. Its lack of traditional armrests means it's perfect if you're a person who likes to splay out.

Signe/Wayfair

Promising review: "Absolutely delighted with the Bruneta Lounge Chairs! We needed two chairs for our living room but space is limited. We prefer mid-century modern so I was excited to find this chair. I’m nearly 70 and I was able to unbox and assemble the chairs with ease. Once the parts were laid out it took less than 30 minutes to assemble both. Happy to report they are as comfortable as they are beautiful. The online images are a true representation of the product (always a concern of mine)." —Jean

Get it from Wayfair for $283.01+ (originally $579.99, available in two colors)

Amazon

Promising review: "I’m glad to say this chair is just perfect! Took five minutes to assemble (screwed legs in, that’s it!) and is really comfortable and well-made. It feels slightly smaller than in the picture, but that’s actually great for us as we don’t like unnecessary bulky furniture. Totally happy with it and would definitely recommend it!" —agonza

Get it from Amazon for $159.99+ (available in four colors).

14. An extra wide chair, because the only thing better than finding a comfortable spot to sit is realizing you can share it with a bestie. The seat width is 40," so your favorite furry friends can join you for your TV marathon sesh.

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "I have been loving this chair, and my cats love it too! It was easy to assemble, perfectly matched the blue accents in my living room, and is a great size. I like that it’s wider than a regular chair, too, so I can comfortably sit in different positions. This was definitely one of the more affordable accent chairs I found while searching for one. However, I don’t think it lacks in quality. This has been the perfect chair to create my reading nook, and I definitely would recommend it." —S Smith

Get it from Amazon for $163.99+ (available in four colors).

15. A high-back chair upholstered in linen so supportive, it's like having a personal cheerleader each time you sit down. The ergonomic angle of the backrest and armrest means you're getting the full support you need if you plan on hanging out on it for a really long time.

Amazon

Promising review: "It looks great! It came nicely packaged with easy-to-read and easy-to-follow assembly instructions, as all parts are numbered. The seat is wide and deep, covered with a thick, breathable cotton fabric, which covers well all around the seat and backrest, as well as the cushions. Love the natural wood and its light tone, the tongue and groove curves, and the gadget that conceals the screws. The ergonomic design makes it amazingly comfortable. It’s the nicest find, and a good value. I recommend." —Catherine Kriendler

Get it from Amazon for $125.99+ (available in eight fabric options and with a high or low back).

Promising review: "I wanted something other than the basic run-of-the-mill MCM chair that would compliment some of my vintage items from the '50s and '60s in my retro room. This chair is perfect! It blends in well with the round pieces in the room. Shipping from Duohome was great, with no damage. I assembled it in around 5 minutes, and despite being on the taller, thus, heavier side, the chair is surprisingly more sturdy and comfortable than I expected. It's also lightweight and easy to move when vacuuming. I couldn't be happier!" —toyzbin

They're surprisingly comfortable, due to the high back and flexible fiberglass. If your space is small, like my breakfast area, these are great.
