• Pros: Affordable price points
• Cons: The website isn’t the easiest to navigate, and the styling can often be detrimental to the products

This French fancy has a seriously impressive range of practical items. Think affordable linen curtains, large wool rugs, mirrors and lighting. Their Madotto rug has appeared in countless projects that have graced the pages of House & Garden and is an underfoot favourite of interior designers and editors alike. However, it’s not just La Redoute’s accessories that we’re investing in, as the retailer is probably best known for its affordable furniture. We have our eye on their dining chairs (available for a snip of the price you’d find elsewhere) and their Madara cane bed frame.

This isn’t a tale of the cheap and cheerful though, as La Redoute’s quality is reliably good. There’s a reason La Redoute is in every interior designer’s little black book of the best online homeware shops. From dining sets and bookcases to console tables and bedside tables, this retailer has some of the best-designed and best priced pieces around. Oh, and the AM.PM bedding, every time.

• Pros: Heavyweight bed linens in several styles that won’t break the bank. Plus, most items are eligible for free delivery.
• Cons: Restrictive returns windows and no trial periods on mattresses or mattress toppers.The go-to spot for high quality, minimalist homewares available at high street prices. Think timeless staples that will stand the test of time in their signature neutral palette. For online shopping, where the White Company truly excels in is the bedroom, where they offer some of most luxurious bedding, ultra-plush bath towels and high quality best bed frames and headboards we’ve tried. See the rest of our White Company picks in our full round up.

• Pros: Excellent quality and a huge range of shapes and sizes in each furnishing type
• Cons: Darlings don’t offer a free sofa removal or exchange service

Our new found love of Darlings of Chelsea shows no sign of slowing, with richly upholstered furnishings to decorate your living space in both contemporary and traditional shapes. Their pieces are made to order, but thankfully their lead times are much shorter than many equivalent furniture shops. For some of the best sofa beds at relatively accessible price points, Darlings of Chelsea are unparalleled in the space.

Frequently asked questions

• Which website sells cheap furniture?

Depending on the site, buying from a cheap furniture brand can be a bit of a false economy. Whilst you might feel like you’re getting a good deal, you will likely have to purchase the same item over and over as the quality simply won’t stand the test of time. If you’re looking for budget-friendly furniture, Ikea is probably the best place to head to. No, the quality of their MDF furniture won’t match up to an antique piece, but for quick and easy bits of extra storage, it will do the job. Aside from the Swedish flat-packers, Habitat has some lovely retro style pieces – we particularly like their 60th anniversary collection. La Redoute is another wonderfully affordable yet still incredibly stylish option; their simple linen bedding is loved by interior designers, as is their staple Madotto rug.

• What are the best online furniture stores in the UK?

Here at House & Garden we love discovering new interiors shops, makers and designers who are doing something creative or out of the ordinary. Our pages are full of bespoke furniture and lovingly crafted textiles and homeware accessories, and there’s no doubt they’re incredibly beautiful. However, more often than not, these artisanal furniture shops are expensive – justifiably so given the quality of their work – and not everyone can afford to invest in what they produce. In these instances, the high street is the place to go to!

For those on a budget, or for those who are clever with their high-low mixing, there are plenty of high street retailers who offer stylish products that won’t break the bank. With fashion brands increasingly entering the interiors space, and longstanding homewares brands upping their game to keep up in the style stakes, there has never been a better time to shop for furniture online via the major high street shops.

Whilst everyone has different taste and budgets in the interiors world, there are a few fail safe online furniture shops that will suit most people’s style, and offer pieces for both large and small spaces. These are shops from whom we at House & Garden have bought from. They all sell a range of furniture at high street prices and we feel that they best represent the intersection between affordability and quality. Each of these offers a wide range of furniture and accessories, so there’s plenty to choose from.
