16 Small Accent Chairs That Bring Big Comfort to Cramped Living Rooms

The only problem with Pottery Barn's Pacific sleeper armchair is determining which style to choose as there's a range of colors, prints, and even textures. Maybe you're more basketweave or boucle or you want a fun velvet moment. Regardless of which option you choose, the sleeper has three reclining positions and is similar in size to a twin bed.

We’re loving the calm, cozy vibe of the Harbor Upholstery Accent Chair. It’s the perfect spot to kick back, dive into a good book, and recharge for whatever’s next. It’s big enough to sit cross-legged but not so bulky that it won’t fit into your favorite little nook. Plus, with all that comfy padding, this chair’s bound to become your new favorite hangout spot.

The Gimlet from Burrow is a standout option. It comes in three fabric colors, including a super-luxe ivory bouclé, and offers amazing lumbar support. The dark wood finish adds a timeless touch that’ll make a statement in any space, whether it’s your bedroom or living room.

This round swivel chair is the ultimate transitional piece. It’s perfect for an office, living room, bedroom — you name it! If you’re looking for more space, you can upgrade to the 51.2-inch-wide armchair for maximum lounging. That said, the smaller size is ideal for apartments!

It’s not easy to find a piece of furniture that goes with everything, but Drew Barrymore’s swivel accent chair works with any interior decor style. With its deep seat and plush pillows, it's pretty impressive for the size. Its bouclé fabric gives it a high-end look — and the sage green color is on sale, too!

We love a double and triple threat in terms of furniture. Featuring a trendy mid-century modern design, this convertible chair is great because you can use it as a chair, chaise, or flat bed. Oh, the possibilities!

The sleek Carmine chair packs a lot of charm and only takes up a small space in your office or bedroom. There are the tufted details on the seat and arms, as well as the tapered legs that create such a classic feel. Also, it comes in a whopping 30 color ways, so there's a look for every taste.

The Cammy armchair measures just under 30 inches wide, but the rounded corners and tapered metal legs add major style points to any room. The colors, which include an earthy green and a warm mustard, are surprisingly quite neutral, yet still add some color and texture to your decor. Also, the small cushion provides great lumbar support.

If your style leans toward mid-century modern, you’re going to love this next one. The Avenue Six Davis Chair from QVC features a classic MCM profile, with its streamlined wooden frame topped with a cream-colored seat.

Vying for velvet? The Hendrix Upholstered Barrel Chair is just what your space needs. Coming in a mix of neutral and jewel-toned hues, this seat features scalloped edges, vertical tufting, and gold legs that'll instantly add a touch of glamour to your home.

Not only can you choose the color of Burrow's Lodge Chair, but you can also choose between a walnut or oak frame. The design is elegant, but the pitched back and wide armrests make this a chair you'll want to get cozy in. The back is actually ergonomically designed just for that.

A leather chair, like the Aichele Vegan Leather Wingback Chair, is a great pick if you’re looking for something that’ll warm up your space. Wrapped in faux leather, this wingback beauty is eye-catching, thanks to its biscuit tufting and two neutral color options: a warm chestnut brown and cool gray.

West Elm’s Penn Chair exudes sophistication, doesn’t it? Shopping writer Haley even describes it as "the perfect spot to throw on a blanket and enjoy a cup of coffee" in her glowing review. With thick cushions and high arms for comfort, a luxuriously soft velvet finish, and sleek, bold metal legs, this chair is both inviting and stylish — a must-have for any reading nook or living room.

Looking for a recliner that won’t take up half of the room like your dad’s La-Z-Boy? At first glance, the Auburn Recliner looks like a regular ol’ high-back accent chair, but one kick back and you’ll find a hidden recliner that’ll have you lounging in style.
