Where to Find {Affordable} Comfy and Pretty Swivel Chairs | Thrifty Decor Chick

Where to find upholstered swivel chairs for the living
room.

Our two round swivel accent chairs in the family room are two of my favorite
furniture finds ever! I love the look and they are incredibly
comfy. 

Barrel chairs like these are so versatile — they’re great for
conversation and entertaining. Our two swivel seats can be turned around so
our guests can join conversations in the living room or the
kitchen:

And what’s better than being able to spin around in your chair??
Nothing. 

Last Christmas we moved them over in front of the windows on either side of
our giant tree:

We loved that layout so much, we’ve kept it like that
(well, without the tree) all year. 

The upholstery is a polyester and has held up beautifully! Stains come out
easily and one of our cats scratches away on them and there is very little wear or tear:

We love them, so I’m not surprised I get asked about them so often. The top
two questions I get from readers are, what is that color on your
fireplace?: 

dark blue Cyberspace fireplace

(It’s called Cyberspace from Sherwin-Williams.)

And the second question…where did you find the two swivel chairs? 

I found them at HomeGoods years ago, which is great for me because the price
was GREAT. Unfortunately I know that can be frustrating for everyone looking
for a similar chair. It’s hard to find the same item twice at HomeGoods!

I finally did some digging around underneath the chairs the other day and
found out they are from Stone and Leigh and this specific chair is
called the Gayle

Our armchairs are about 30 inches high, 35 wide and 35 deep. I LOVE them.

If you search that name, there are a few of them around here and there
online, but not a ton. 

So I found some similar options to share with you that have a similar look!
All of these run under $550.

It can be hard to pick out furniture online — the two things I always look
for are the depth and width of the chair. I like a deeper seat because I
find they’re more comfortable. You can pull your legs up and get
comfy. 

And the width is important so you and your guests don’t feel like they’re
being squished. 🙂

Keep in mind you will want to be able to actually swivel these, so you’ll
need a little more space around them than what you need for other
chairs. 

I also prefer our chairs to have armrests, I just find them to be comfier than those without.

It comes in three colors but this Indigo is super close to our blue chairs.
It has that same rounded back that we have as well. 

This
cute swivel option
from Amazon has a slipcovered look (it is removable but I’m not sure the fabric is machine washable):

I’ve purchased many chairs over the years (that we still have) from World
Market and I’ve always been pleased with the quality and comfort.

I found a few more that don’t have that rounded back, but still have clean
lines and a transitional look that will stand the test of time.

And finally, another World Market option that looks SO comfy.
This one is feather filled, the deepest seat I found and has great reviews:

It has a slightly more traditional look, but would fit in beautifully just
about anywhere! 

If you’ve been searching for the perfect swivel chair that isn’t crazy
expensive, I hope these options will help you out! They are great options for
cozy seating and work well in so many spaces. 

Here’s an image to pin for later and all of the links to the numbered
chairs:
