The marketplace of flatpacked furnishings at The Everything Store might not be your first choice for a home upgrade, but the best furniture brands on Amazon do include some exceptional online stores for outfitting your office, living room, and beyond. From Branch’s futuristic desk chairs to Umbra’s Scandinavian-influenced silhouettes, the online giant’s home category spans a range of interior styles. Another perk of browsing an e-tailer with such a vast inventory of items is that you can also often find deals and coupons, especially if you shop during sales events like Amazon Prime Day.

But because the infinite scroll of options can also feel limitless in an overwhelming way, we zeroed in on some of our most reliable favorites (no third parties here) for quality furniture that’s durable and wallet-friendly. Our editors and contributors have even tested some of their wares, from storage beds to coffee tables, so you can get a first-person endorsement directly from us.

The AD team is divided on exactly how to pronounce the brand Allewie, but what we do know is that they’re best known for their attractive beds, from upholstered bed frames to simpler storage options. Contributor Will Porter is a fan of this Amazon best seller that raises like a convertible door for storage, and comes at an approachable price point even when it’s not on sale. He has the beige Lift Up storage bed with a wingback headboard that comes in seven colorways. “It looks great as a standalone piece but could also accommodate a bench or low couch at the foot of the bed,” he previously noted.

Branch is a rarity in the home office space, making furniture finds that marry ergonomics with sleek, inoffensive silhouettes. “Poor posture fears the Branch Ergo Pro,” says commerce editor Audrey Lee, who tested the extra cushy Ergonomic Pro office chair. “The chair’s fully customizable support system makes it easy to spend long hours in a static position with all the adjustments you need to feel more comfortable throughout the work day.” The Branch store also includes desks and accessories like laptop stands and desk risers.

Christopher Knight (yes, the guy who played Peter Brady in The Brady Bunch) must have picked up a thing or two from his architect TV dad. The Christopher Knight Home collection is all about cozy sofas and styled upholstered chairs, including the wingback and a midcentury modern recliner that could have been plucked from the set of his sitcom.

Nathan James furniture is known as a durable brand for affordable furniture with midcentury appeal, all backed by a lifetime guarantee. You’ll find bookcases and floating shelves, end tables and night stands, as well as coffee tables that practically beckon a tête-à-tête. “I gravitate toward modern bohemian decor styles, and the warm wood and rattan accents of the Sonia coffee table were immediately calling my name,” says AD commerce producer Lauren Arzbaecher of her Sonia two-tier coffee table.

Once you start browsing Poly & Bark for sofas, you might not want to stop.

The brand also offers dining chairs, storage benches, and office furniture where those came from.

Walker Edison is all about contemporary wood pieces with fluted details, though they also dabble in hardy patio furniture crafted from eucalyptus wood. Come for the elegant sideboard designs with architectural elements like fluting and cutouts, stay for the minimalist dining tables and abstract nightstands.

Umbra’s Scandi-style pieces with curved edges—bookshelves, side tables—are often designated as Amazon’s Choice picks. We love them for small spaces that don’t always merit an uber-expensive investment piece, from stylish wall decor to affordable storage solutions. Just take a look at their pine wood dowel hooks that resemble a piece of art.

Last but not least is Zinus, a company known for its affordable bed frames and mattresses, ones which are ideal for starter apartments and guest rooms. “I love memory foam mattresses because they are suitable for helping your body completely ease itself while in slumber, and [the Green Tea memory foam mattress] didn’t stray from this reputation,” says contributor Jacorey Moon in his review. Zinus also offers mattress toppers, bamboo bed frames, and plenty of seating.
