In my humble and unsolicited opinion, no room is complete without a cozy place to sit—especially a bedroom. Yes, I'm writing this from my glorified New York City closet that's called a "room," but honestly, I have no excuse for not utilizing the bit of empty space I do have with a small bedroom chair to create the reading nook of my dreams. There's literally n-o-t-h-i-n-g better than throwing on your comfiest sweats, grabbing that cozy throw blanket you use as decor, and curling up in a cozy (and aesthetic af) chair from the comfort of your bedroom—especially during colder months.

The only challenge in finding the best chair for your bedroom is making sure it doesn't take up too much space. (And also making sure it doesn't become a storage rack for your clothes, but we all know it's inevitable.) You want an accent chair that's wide enough to sit comfortably but small enough not to take over your entire room. So, to help you avoid becoming a modern-day Goldilocks, I've rounded up all the best small bedroom chairs to shop now based on tester reviews, size, and, of course, style.

Whether you're looking for something cozy and aesthetic or compact and sleek, keep scrolling to find your new fave small bedroom chair.

Mira Swivel Chair

The viral bouclé chair from the goop x CB2 collection is what dreams are made of, but that $1K price tag isn't budget-friendly for everyone. Luckily, we found this v similar dupe that's just as cute, comfy, and gives the same dreamy vibes at a fraction of the price.

THE REVIEW: "Absolutely love these swivel chairs. They look great and are comfortable. They are wide, which is a plus, enables you to sit crisscross or feet up, even my 6' husband fits well in them. They are a little deep, so a decorative pillow helps for shorter people like me," writes a reviewer.

This just isn't any 'ole chair—this is a statement piece! Upholstered in super soft velvet, sitting in this chair feels like sitting in ~luxury~. Plus, the modern design will make people think you're a certified interior designer. Trust, there's a reason why it's the top-rated arm chair on the UO Home website.

THE REVIEW: "Finally pulled the trigger after spending weeks researching and looking for the perfect accent chair for my room. My accent chair finally arrived!!! Great color, very comfortable. Great for sitting cross-legged and finishing up work on your laptop," pens a reviewer.

Introducing: the accent chair fit for your coastal grandma era (aka my era at all times). This sturdy addition to your room is the perfect hybrid of relaxed and chic with linen blend upholstery and a reclined wooden base. And it's less than $200?! Um, you're coming home with me!

THE REVIEW: "This chair is gorgeous and so comfortable. No one believes how inexpensive it is," writes a reviewer. "Packed well and so simple to put together, it took minutes. Color exact. It sits a little lower which I knew from the description and is exactly what I wanted for the space. I love it."

Midcentury Modern Accent Chair

No arms and a wide seat is the ideal chair design for fellow criss-crossers and fidgeters like me. This boho-chic accent chair is roomy with a comfortable backrest for relaxed support. It can be used either indoors or outdoors, but just imagine all the cute lil afternoon reads (and inevitable clothing stack) that'll happen in that cozy corner of your room.

THE REVIEW: "Chair is very stylish and comfortable. Sits low to the ground, but has plenty of room for relaxing. Quality materials, easy enough to put together but did have it's challenges getting the pieces to sit flush even after tightening the screws, took some trial and error," mentions a reviewer. "Otherwise, would recommend as an accent chair for either mid-century or boho look."

THE REVIEW: "Love this chair," exclaims a reviewer. "The fabric is soft and the chair itself is very comfortable. My favorite part is the storage ottoman that fits under the chair. It’s a great foot rest when you need it, but then you can put it away. Definitely recommend!"

Floor Sofa

The viral TOGO Fireside Chair can run you upwards of $5,000 (*screams in broke af*), but you can get the same effect in your bedroom with this similar, way more affordable chair. This lounge sofa is ergonomically designed with high-density memory foam for plenty of support when you're in need of a little resting sanctuary that's not your bed.

Mod Armchair

If your favorite television character (think Rory Gilmore) had a small bedroom chair, I can only imagine it'd be a little something like this. This mid-century-inspired piece is where you'd go to unwind, unplug, and get a lil defensive when others try to occupy "your chair."

THE REVIEW: "Absolutely love this chair! It's comfy and the high back is wonderful for syncing in with a heating pad and a book!," a reviewer writes. "The inflection in the colors is more bright than what I expected from looking at this on the website. It seems to be good quality, time will tell!"

Sherpa Boucle Accent Chair

The brand describes this as a "comfy teddy cuddle corner chair," and it couldn't be more spot on. Thanks to the sherpa fabric and wide-curved arms, it's giving teddy bear vibes in the best way possible. In addition to the great price (heck yeah, under $200!), the spacious width makes it ideal for lounging.

THE REVIEW: "Absolutely love the chairs. They are strong, wide fitting and can hold good weight. Great decision and super easy to put together. Chair does collect lent/hair easily and of course with it being white you will have to clean, but outside of that I am loving the chairs so far!!," writes a reviewer about their purchase.

Elroy Faux Shearling Accent Chair with Wood Legs

For an accent chair that's as comfy as it is eye-catching, you really can't go wrong with this cutie. It's easy to incorporate into most spaces due to its neutral, timeless design and if the plush cushions don't make you want to plop right down into the seat, well, we don't know what will.

THE REVIEW: "Great chair. Easy to assemble. Great for small apartment living," mentions a reviewer. "I painted the legs black and it looks perfect. Pretty comfortable as well. I bought it on sale so it was super affordable. It’s been holding up well & I’ve had it for almost a year-still looks brand new & I sit in it often. Like the style as it fits with many different design styles. Would definitely recommend."

Modern Velvet Accent Chair

Adding some pizzazz to your bedroom has never been easier (or more comfy) than clicking "add to cart" on this affordable find. It's on the smaller side for those looking for a less bulky addition to their room (which is why you're here, right?) and comes in three fun colors for a quick pop of color.

THE REVIEW: "I like everything about these chairs. They're roomy, comfy and pretty. Great combination. They were very easy to put together. Only had to add legs. The only con (joking) is the weird chair shaped box that took a while to disassemble for my recycle bin," reads a review.

How to choose the best small bedroom chair

Whether you're looking for a new decor piece or want a cozy corner in your bedroom, here are a few things to keep in mind as you shop:

Measure your space

Though accent chairs take up way less space than a sofa or couch, they still require some of your precious square footage. Be sure to measure your space and take note of the chair's dimensions (including height, width, and depth) to ensure it will fit as you intend to place it. There's nothing worse than ordering your dream chair for your bedroom and it taking up wayyy too much space, ya know? And don't forget to measure the height of your chair's seat, so you can be sure it's not too low to the ground.

Choose a fabric that works best for you

Accent chairs come in just about any fabric possible, so it's easy to be overwhelmed by the many options. You should not only choose a fabric based on aesthetics but also based on how much use the furniture will get. For example, if you have a pet or child or plan to use the chair frequently, you would benefit from durable and easy-care fabrics like linen, faux suede, rattan, or leather. If you're able to be more gentle with your chair, you can choose from a range of fabrics like linen, velvet, and sherpa.

Don't be afraid to play with color

Luckily, accent chairs for your bedroom come in a rainbow of colors. Although neutrals like cream, beige, and gray tend to be the most popular shades, a chair in a pop of color may add an extra oomph to your space. To all my fellow neutral lovers, I know this can be scary, but hear me out. Sometimes, having white furniture, especially with pets or children, can be risky, and darker colors or prints can hide stains easily and add a little contrast to your room.
