Cuddle Chairs
If a new loveseat would be too large for your living room but a traditional armchair too small for you and your partner, a cuddle chair will solve all your interior design problems… and take relax time to the next level.
Often known as snuggle chairs or oversized chairs for two, these items are the perfect compromise. They look just like the rest of your furniture pieces but allow you to cozy up next to a special someone or to enjoy more room than an armchair could offer you when reading on your own.
In fact, they’re usually around 45” in width!
Not sure as to what style to go for? Here are some snuggly ideas.

Traditional two person chair
If, relaxing aside, your main goal is consistency, you should choose a double chair in a similar style as your sofa or other armchairs.
However, to avoid a heavy result while keeping them cohesive, we recommend copying just one of their main features. For example, the same style but a different color or vice versa.
Patterned cuddle sofa
Are the rest of your furniture pieces pretty neutral or monochrome? Then your new cuddle chair could be the perfect opportunity to introduce a funky pattern.
If you’re worried about ruining your cohesive decor, just be sure to incorporate one of your seating room’s existing colors into it.
Decorating your two person cuddle chair with cushions
While the design and lines of your new cuddle chair will probably be your main focus, don’t forget that cushions are key when it comes to the final result.
For example, if the actual piece is in your secondary color, the cushions could tie the room together by matching your accent hue or an existing pattern.
Oversized round cuddle chair
While some snuggle chairs are made to look more like a small sofa, you can also consider oversized round cuddle chairs for a 360-degree twist.
This is actually the option we recommend if you’re planning on placing yours in a corner or if you’re fairly tight on space: the round shape will optimize it!
Chair for two in a unique design
If your new cuddle chair will also be your way of showcasing your decorative talent, be bold!
Choose a model that breaks free from traditional shapes and designs. For example, a hexagonal chair is sure to stand out in your seating area (psst: another handy idea for corners, too.)
Round sofa chair with an elegant touch
Your new cuddle chair can help you emphasize the sophisticated feel of your living room.
The secret is to choose a stylish monochrome design in a delicate hue and to look for elegant details, just like this show-stopping model with a nail head trim.
Versatile swivel loveseat
Round cuddle chairs relying on a swivel design are some of the most flexible options out there: you can easily move them around without revolutionizing the rest of your living room.
That’s why they’d especially come in handy if you often have guests round and need to rearrange it to make room for more seating.
Oversized chair for two with tufted upholstery
Maybe an entirely monochrome model sounds boring to you and yet a patterned design would feel too busy. There’s a simple solution: stick to one color but pick an oversized chair for two that includes noticeable features like this tufted upholstered front.
Even though the color doesn’t change, it creates a hypnotizing pattern of shadows that we bet you’re going to be obsessed with.
Futon style convertible couples chair
Another practical take on the 2-person chair is the futon design. This timeless idea is particularly effective in smaller or busy rooms where a chair with armrests would get in the way of your visual flow.
Plus, because futons are convertible, you’ll also gain an extra mattress for whenever you have a guest over. It’s a win-win!
Swivel cuddle chair with a retro feel
Are you a bit of a nostalgic soul? Do you feel drawn to immortal trends from past decades? Then a swivel cuddle chair with a delicate 70s touch could be the right option for you.
Your cushions can then be your chance to add to this vintage feel or, on the contrary, to make it slightly more contemporary.
Timelessly cozy snuggle chair
At the end of the day, these chairs are there to snuggle next to each other, so why not focus on that?
If you have traditional interiors, your best bet is to pick a familiar and cozy design that immediately makes you want to relax on it with your special someone.
Oversized cuddle chair with cushions
When browsing a few cuddle chairs, you’ve probably noticed that some of them come with cushions and some others don’t. While the second option offers you more flexibility as you can choose them separately, picking a model that does will certainly save you time.
It will also ensure that, regardless of whether they’re in the same color, your new cushions will look cohesive with the actual chair (the material alone makes a big difference!).
Leather cuddle couch
Not all cuddle chairs look like… chairs. If you prefer something a bit more similar to your sofa, stick to a cuddle couch.
This will also open your doors to more leather options, which is ideal if you already have this material elsewhere in your living room.
Lounger style snuggle chair
If you think that nothing is comfier than cuddle chairs, wait until you try a lounger model. While it’s probably not the best option if you prefer to sit upright, it’ll feel like heaven on earth if you and your partner like to lie down slightly when watching movies or reading together.
The only downside? You’ll probably never want to get up again.
Big swivel cuddle chair in a monochrome finish
Opting for a cuddle chair in a monochrome design is the safest choice if other elements in your seating area (such as your sofa or rug) are full of patterns.
You can then choose to add cushions in a different one—perhaps another hue from your palette—or keep it even more cohesive by maintaining the same monochrome finish.
Our advice Buying Guide
Cuddle chairs have high, sturdy backrests, and extra deep seats. They are intended for relaxing, curling up in front of the television, or with a good book. Some are large enough to be comfy for two, but others are fine for solitary enjoyment. Their hallmark is lots of puffy softness and room enough to curl up or stretch out your legs.
Cuddle Chair Classic
A classic cuddle chair style is a round chair with a tall back that encompasses half the circle. Puffy pillows can be rearranged for personal comfort. It is just the right size to curl up in or to lean back and stretch out your legs without having them dangle off. An attached arm table for drinks or snacks is a definite plus. Consider the size of the person who will sit in it most often for optimum dimensions.
Family Dogpile Cuddle Chair
For one or two larger loungers, or a couple with one or two children, a large cuddle chair the size of a double bed is a super solution for evening wind down or nap time. It is also the perfect solution for a single person with multiple snuggly pets, none of whom want to the left out during after-dinner social time. It can even double as an extra bed if you have guests.
Round Wicker Basket Chair
Need a snuggly embrace, but also need a little alone time? A round, wicker basket cuddle chair can give you that feeling of privacy, while the cushions allow you to curl up in a protected nest. The inside has room enough for two, making it a retreat for a couple or a cozy place to curl up with your little one to read books and enjoy quiet time.
Love Seat Style Cuddle Chair
Love seats get their name from being a couch sized to comfortably seat two. A love seat cuddle chair has the width equivalent to the classic love seat, but has the extra deep seat of a cuddle chair along with the sturdy back and comfortable cushions. It can seat a couple or it can be a comfortable place to read, relax or even take a nap. Some models come with a foldout seat that allows it to be made into a bed.
Sherpa Cloud Couch
This chair takes cuddliness to the next level. Upholstered in soft, faux fleece, it is the perfect chair to have in front of a fireplace – real or electric. Add a handknit or fleece throw and a fleece covered footstool, along with a drink and snack holder and you might not want to ever leave your snug hideaway.
Cuddle chairs can be your at-home getaway for all the stresses that life brings from day to day. Almost everyone has the need to find a soft place to rest, relax and repair mind and body before heading back into the fray. A soft chair where you can curl up and enjoy a good book or your favorite television show might be just the thing.
