10 Dorm Chairs You Need In Your Room

Dorm chairs add character to any dorm room while also providing well needed seating. With all of the different options out there, you might not know which chair is best for you and your space. Don’t fret, I am here to give you a list of the best seats that you and your behind could ask for!

The Diva Chair

Some people need dorm chairs that have it all. This Iced Faux Fur Chair from PB Teen is both comfortable and stylish. You can let your guests know that you prefer the finer things in life without compromising your comfort. It might be impractical for smaller rooms, but the diva in you doesn’t care, it demands everything!

The Minimalist’s Chair

This dorm chair speaks to a minimalist’s heart. Nothing over the top and it’s functional in that it’s a desk chair. This chair won’t take up a bunch of room in your space and will provide you with a nice piece to could fit within almost any design scheme.

The “Comfort? We Don’t Know Her” Chair

Sometimes dorm chairs are just there for decoration and this is one of them. Who knows how your body will properly contour to this, but who cares, it still looks cool! You can treat it as a piece of art and drape a nice blanket over the corner. There are many ways to play this one, but let’s be honest, we all just want to stare at it anyway.

The True Lounge Chair

Picture it, after a long day of class, all you want to do is get comfortable. You have a paper due tomorrow, so you can’t sleep, but the upright position you find yourself in is just too much. Well, this is the chair you need. It offers you another way to take a load off without being tempted by your bed to go to sleep.

The “I Paid More Than You Think” Chair

To me, dorm chairs like this are the equivalent of people spending hundreds of dollars to get shirts with holes in them. That sounds super judgmental, and it slightly is, but some people like to have high end objects that you would think didn’t cost as much as they do. This Anthropologie chair on its own is a pretty statement piece, but with its $698.00 price tag, I can assure you that its upholstery won’t be the topic of conversation for long.

The “Can I sit in it?” Chair

Forget the frills and the overpriced nonsense, you just want a place to sit. Comfort is paramount here and the cheaper the better. At the end of the day, we’re college students not many of us can afford a chair that costs as much as some classes do. Here is a great option for those of us who want a practical option that gets the job done!

The Lazy Boy Chair

Some of the best dorm chairs are the ones that have multiple functions. This chair does not disappoint! When you sit down for your favorite show, no one wants to have to find the remote or to get up for a drink. As for looks, who cares! Do you have to get up for snacks? No. Game controller? Of course not! Bathroom? Yes, definitely yes.

The Sunken Place Chair

For the days when all you want to do is be engulfed, this is the chair. Its soft plush material will allow for you to sink into it, creating a comforting relaxation spot to unwind after a long day. Its also super cute so it can add some style and flare while also serving its purpose!

The Chill Out Chair

This dorm chair is perfect for those who want to keep things light. The bright tan twine on the back and cream colored seats are guaranteed to liven up any space, and with the minimal approach by having a partially open back, it makes the chair seem less bulky so it won’t over dominate a small dorm room.

The Party of Two Chair

For the students that live far from home or find that their dorm is the top hang out spot, they will need dorm chairs that can seat many. While this is more of a sofa than chair, it has the great multi use function of being able to turn into a bed! So, when mom and dad come visit or best friend wants to stay the night, this is a great option if you have the space for it!
