23% Off Mercer41 Marny Wide Velvet Round Storage Ottoman With Storage
Rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars and 243 reviews
This ottoman actually emerged as a bestseller during this year’s Way Day. Our lifestyle writer made it her main editor pick because of its pretty-yet-functional design. "Aside from my two-person loveseat, there's nowhere else for guests to sit in my apartment," she wrote. "You'd think, the logical conclusion would be to buy a chair, but I don't really have enough room for one. Therefore, I am obsessed with this little retro upholstered ottoman that has secret storage, intriguing hairpin legs, and can hold up to 300 pounds."

5% Off Foundstone Terri Arm Chair in Cappuccino Brown (Set of 2)
Rating: 4.6 out of 5 stars and 427 reviews
Unlike WFH office chairs, dining chairs are home to a variety of tushes and placed in a spill-prone environment: the dining room. Foundstone's seat set has you and plenty of butts covered with its 300-pound weight capacity, stain-resistant faux leather, and cushy padding. Wayfair on-site reviewer Sara deemed it both a stylish and "kid-friendly" chair in her review. "They are just the right amount of comfort for a dining chair," she wrote. "I have two toddlers and I love how the seat cushion is attached by velcro and removable for easy clean-ups."
