This guide highlights our picks for the 30 best places to buy high-quality, affordable furniture for your space. And since "affordable" means different things to different people, we've included a range of price points that should hit the mark.
Remember, furnishing your home should be fun! So pick a few stores that fit your budget and make a wishlist. After all, you're creating the rooms where you'll live, laugh, and love for years to come, and you deserve beautiful memories.
1. Albany Park
What we like: Albany Park's uncomplicated catalog helps make shopping less overwhelming, and each piece is designed for a 10-minute assembly. They also Affirm as an alternative payment method.
Cost: Sofas start at $1,027; Sectionals start at $1,690 | Shipping: Free shipping | Returns: 30-day return policy
Offer: Use Code COZY10 for 10% off sofas and sectionals at Albany Park.
If you've spent any time shopping for living room furniture, you'll likely relate to the story behind Albany Park. It was born in 2017 when founders Darryl and Jessica Sharpton had difficulty finding a nice sofa at a fair price. Especially since delivery takes upward of 4-6 weeks from high-end brands!
So, they launched Albany Park, a designer furniture retailer focusing on fair pricing. They also work to eliminate decision fatigue by offering just three sofa models that suit almost everyone's style and comfort needs.
2. Nathan James
Nathan James is another brand with a relatable backstory — it all started when founder Brooklyn Burdon moved out of her parent's house. She was excited to design her own space until she realized how expensive it would be to furnish her dream space without turning to garage sales and hand-me-downs.
So, she decided to start a furniture brand that sold affordable furniture she'd be happy to put in her own home, with easy assembly and long-lasting construction. And most pieces are made with apartments and small spaces in mind.
What we like: Easy cancellations, excellent customer service, free returns, and lighthearted assembly instructions — what more can you ask for?
Cost: TV stands start at $140; Dining sets (seating included) start at $280 | Shipping: Free shipping | Returns: 100-day no-questions-asked return policy
3. FloorFound
FloorFound is pretty awesome — the brand works with a wide range of retailers to help open box pieces, returned items, and floor models find new life. And this innovative approach keeps furniture out of landfills.
As of December 2021, FloorFound reports having helped re-circulate nearly 200,000 pounds of furniture that may have otherwise ended up in the trash. (Wow!)
This circular commerce model benefits clients, customers, and the planet all in one go. And everything is sold below its regular price. Did we mention that this already-discounted store has a clearance section?
What we like: FloorFound created a way to help the planet, customers, and retailers, and we respect their dedication to ethical commerce. Plus, checking out new things in the catalog is always fun.
Cost: Headboards currently start at $150; Bed frames currently start at $246 (prices change as new stock arrives) | Shipping: Shipping rates are calculated based on item weight, delivery location, and cost of fuel | Returns: 14-day return policy

With a massive selection of indoor and outdoor home furniture, Birch Lane features pieces for almost every budget. It launched under its parent company, Wayfair, and specializes in traditional styles designed to fit in with whatever you already own.

What we like: You'll find almost anything in their catalog, from mattresses and bedroom sets to coffee tables and accent chairs. And you can check customer reviews before you buy.
Cost: Bed frames start at $300; Sofas start at $740 | Shipping: Free shipping on orders over $35 | Returns: 30-day return policy

12. Sabai
Sabai is a women-founded BIPOC furniture brand focusing on sustainable production and affordable prices. The brand offers a small selection of American-made living room seating, known as The Essential collection. You'll also find a table among its curated selection.
While such a small selection might seem odd to some, Sabai is among a handful of today's brands dedicated to making furniture more environmentally friendly and accessible for all budgets. All packaging is plastic-free, all materials are recycled, natural, or FSC-certified, and all production is ethical and domestic. And each piece is made to order to reduce waste.
Sabai's prices are on the high end of this list, but for sustainable furniture made to last a lifetime, they're hard to beat. Especially considering the money you'll save by repairing the same furniture for years through their Repair Don't Replace program instead of replacing it with a new one down the road. Also, Klarna payment options are available to make prices more accessible.
What we like: Everything from Sabai is replaceable, so you can fix anything that breaks instead of throwing it away, which doesn't just save the planet — it saves customers money!
Watch out for: Some customers report delivery taking over the estimated time given, but this is expected with made-to-order goods.
Cost: Sectional starts at $1,845; Accent chair starts at $745 | Shipping: Shipping varies depending on location and item (e.g., the sofa and loveseat ship for $65 to the 48 contiguous united states) | Returns: 30-day return policy

Wayfair has daily sales, so you can score great deals if you're patient. Its site even features a home improvement section, a bonus for anyone furnishing a fixer-upper!
What we like: Wayfair has made itself a definite contender for anyone on a budget with a financing program and a credit card. And you can check customer reviews before buying.
Watch out for: Some negative reviews have expressed disappointment in the furniture quality, so it's best to look for well-reviewed pieces.
Cost: Loveseats start at $130; Headboards start at $62 | Shipping: Free shipping on orders over $35 | Returns: 30-day return policy

Everyone's heard of IKEA, but if you've never shopped there, you should check out their affordable furniture options. The brand sells stuff that's easy to assemble (despite popular jokes) with modern styling and sleek, clean lines. And if you shop in-store, you can grab lunch while you're there.
There's a reason IKEA is known worldwide for inexpensive furniture, and while their pieces can vary slightly, you can always check the reviews to see what to expect. Just remember to look for the furniture available nearby or for online purchases to avoid disappointment when you check out.
What we like: IKEA has been working on being more sustainable lately, with energy-saving solutions, veggie hot dogs, and recyclable designs. And you'll find covers for a lot of furniture to keep it looking nice in case of stains or tears.

20. HomeGoods
HomeGoods is owned by T.J. Maxx and has similar prices to the well-loved budget brand.

You can also check out its clearance section for daily discounts on tons of pieces, a bonus if you need to furnish your whole home cheaply.
If you're near one of the many retail locations, you can check out your furniture in person before buying or pick up your order at the store to save money.
One thing to note is that HomeGoods doesn't carry some larger furniture pieces, like sofas and sectionals. Instead, the site focuses on accent furniture, side tables, dining benches, and outdoor pieces.

Watch out for: Some customers report negative experiences while shopping at in-person HomeGoods locations.

22. Urban Outfitters
While Urban Outfitters doesn't have the lowest prices on this list, it does carry stylish boho, romantic, and modern furniture at accessible price points. In reality, it's a higher-end budget shop with pieces that would easily cost three times as much on other sites. But you can catch better prices on the site's furniture sale section if you're patient.
One of the main reasons Urban Outfitters makes the budget list is that it offers a couple of different payment plan options, including Afterpay and Klarna. This is a nice bonus for anyone who needs to furnish multiple rooms with stylish, chic furniture without maxing out a credit card.
What we like: The site boasts funky designs that'll make creating an Insta-worthy aesthetic in most modern homes more straightforward.
