Furnishing an entire house or apartment is no small undertaking. It's a daunting task at best, from big-picture considerations like designing layout and color palette to nailing down the little details like figuring out how your grandmother's antique lamp fits in with the rest of the décor. Perhaps you've created a Pinterest board or ripped out pages from Architectural Digest to save in a folder. But then comes the real legwork of deciding on major purchases, like a couch and coffee table, bed and dresser, dining room table and chairs — all the best furniture for your space.

Luckily, these days there's no need to spend precious weekend hours schlepping to furniture stores (though seeing pieces in person can sometimes be very helpful with designing and laying out your space). Perhaps surprisingly, Amazon has a wide selection of chic and well-priced furniture for every room of the house — and fro Prime members, free two day shipping for big items like a couch or dresser can actually save you quite a lot of money.

Whether you're a fan of Midcentury-Modern design, Hollywood glam or prefer an industrial or rustic look, we’ve combed through both enthusiastic five-star reviews and deal-breaker one-star reviews to find the best options to suit all tastes. Here are our top picks for the best furniture you can get right on Amazon.

Well-concealed storage space is always a perk, particularly in bedrooms that lack square footage for a dresser or have a small minimal closet space (if there’s even a closet!).

“In my opinion far nicer than anything you will find browsing the aisles of Walmart or Target,” says one recent five-star reviewer. “It's a very solid piece, and the surfaces have a nice texture.
