You’ve never spent so much time in your house without leaving, which means you’ve never noticed so many flaws, missing pieces and out-of-date rooms. First off, take a deep breath, it’s really not as bad as it seems. Second, Wayfair is still throwing its biggest sale of the season, so you can fix it, and still get everything shipped to your house.
From now through April 30, the one-stop home emporium Wayfair is throwing its annual blowout where furniture (indoor and outdoor), lighting, home office essentials, appliances, grills, even lawn games are up to 80% off. And we’re not just talking about the bottom of the barrel — these are huge discounts on top brands and five-star goods.
Some logistical things: Wayfair will throw in free shipping on most orders over $49 (though you can expect to pay a little more if you order, for example, a washer and dryer). And to give back, Wayfair will also be donating 10% of their profits from this sale to the Feeding America COVID-19 Response Fund.
There’s a lot to choose from, good and bad, so to help steer you toward the former we’ve picked out some of the best deals by category.
Best Chair: Stallard Dining Chair
You’ve no doubt seen these industrial metal chairs out and about at cafes and bars (back when we could go to those places), and they’re more than worth the original price, but now they’re worth a bulk purchase. With over a dozen colors to choose from (some cost a little more), this is a great option if you need to add seating to multiple rooms.
Best Desk: Drumard Writing Desk
No, this isn’t a command center for your multiple computer monitors eight-hour-plus work day. Instead, this is the for desk after the work day, the desk where you decompress with the crossword or that book you’re working on. It’s clean, simple and made of sturdy wood.
Best Home Office Desk: Kirchoff L-Shape Executive Desk
If you’ve been typing away at the kitchen table during these WFH days, this L-shaped desk is an affordable way to separate your work life from your home life in your own abode. It’s small enough to tuck into a corner, but includes enough storage that you won’t be wishing for more space.
Best Desk Chair: Billups Ergonomic Mesh Task Chair
It swivels, it adjusts, it breathes! This is a popular home office chair that’ll work in a pinch, especially because it comes in colors (yes, actual color!).
Best Lawn Game: Mölkky
This game is listed as “Skittle Scatter,” but it’s really just a knockoff of the most underrated lawn game of all time — Mölkky. Get yourself another excuse to turn off the TV and go outside.
