This collection includes fabric, faux leather, and upholstered styles with smooth rotation, helping you compare size, cushioning, and support before choosing the right design. To complete your setup, pair your chair with a cosy tub chair, mix textures with a soft rugs and carpet option, or balance your seating area with a stylish white armchair. With customers praising the great value for money and fast delivery, choosing cheap swivel chairs becomes straightforward and reliable.

How to choose the right swivel chair for your needs

Swivel chairs provide versatility and ease of movement, making them ideal for workspaces, lounges, or multipurpose rooms. When selecting one, consider seat height, back support, upholstery type, and whether you prefer castors or a fixed base. Ergonomic shaping is important for long periods of sitting, while softer designs suit relaxed areas. To build a cohesive seating arrangement, explore additional options from the armchairs collection to complement your swivel chair.

Styling ideas for modern and Scandinavian interiors

Swivel chairs suit a wide variety of home décor styles, especially minimalist, Scandinavian, and contemporary interiors. To add warmth and softness, incorporate texture from the carpets collection. For a clean and modern look, pair your chair with the pale tones in the scandi armchair range. If you enjoy richer colours or a plush finish, consider mixing in pieces from the velvet armchairs collection. For a more natural feel, add woven contrast using the rattan armchair range.

Pairing swivel chairs with complementary furniture

A well planned room blends practicality with comfort. To create a reading nook or study corner, add a functional surface from the coffee tables collection. For a sculptural accent, curved pieces from the egg chairs range add visual interest. If you need casual seating options for guests, lightweight choices from the plastic chairs collection can be moved easily around the home. For footrest comfort, highlight your swivel chair with matching textures from the boucle ottoman collection.

Creating a balanced and organised workspace or living zone

Swivel chairs thrive in spaces where movement and flexibility matter. For home offices or open plan living areas, define zones using pieces from the room dividers collection. To anchor your seating and reduce sound, place your chair over subtle patterns from the rugs collection. For contrast or bold styling, explore darker tones within the black armchair range. To maintain a tidy space, pair your seating with solutions from the storage collection.

What is a Swivel Chair?

A swivel chair is a chair with a central leg that allows it to rotate 360 degrees to the left or right. Swivel chairs can also come with wheels at the base for ease of movement along the ground or with a static base without wheels.

A fun fact about swivel chairs is that their invention is often attributed to Thomas Jefferson, one of the USA’s Founding Fathers and its third president. It is purported that he drafted the Declaration of Independence in 1776 while sitting on a swivel chair of his own design.

Though it’s not 100% definitive that Jefferson was the inventor of the swivel chair (there is a prototype of a swivel-like chair dating back to 1505 in Germany), he is often credited for helping popularise it and laying the foundations for the modern-day swivel chairs we now have.

Nowadays, you can get swivel chairs such as those you may regularly see in office spaces, as well as larger reclining chairs with swivelling bases. 

Are Swivel Chairs Comfortable?

This honestly can depend on the type of swivel chair you purchase. While most classic swivel chairs have full back support, you may find swivel chairs that are backless or low-back (such as bar stools with swivel functionality).


Then there are also the more luxurious and comfort-focused swivel chairs, such as recliner chairs that also include attachable tables or reading lights. 


When it comes to swivel chair comfort, just make sure you read up on the details, check out other people’s reviews, and assess its features against others. Swivel chairs can be as functional and comfortable as you want them to be.

Are Swivel Chairs in Style?

They certainly are. Given the various functional benefits that swivel chairs offer, they’re still frequently used in professional and personal settings.


Ergonomic swivel chairs with adjustable heights are particularly popular within office spaces thanks to their manoeuvrability and ease of use. They allow workers to easily turn to face one another and move from one spot to another as needed.


They’re also great for your home, too. If you have a bar at home, a couple of swivel bar stools can be a great aesthetic and functional addition to the style of your space.


And, as noted, swivel chairs also include comfortable reclining lounge chairs that honestly never go out of style. A reclining swivel chair is a great option for a living room space, especially if the chair is situated between other chairs or sofas.


Given the array of swivel chairs, from their design to their functional purpose, there’s still plenty of style on offer.

What Kind of Interiors Does a Swivel Chair Suit?

You’ll find that swivel chairs can work with various interiors and corresponding designs depending on the type of swivel chair you buy. Consider the aesthetics and design language of your interior spaces.


For example, if your living room is painted a more neutral or standard colour (think white, beige, cream, etc.), then swivel chairs of a contrasting colour or style (black, grey, dark greens, reds, or blues) will help you craft a modern clean look to your space.


Swivel chairs that use metal framing or a metal base rather than individual legs can be well-suited to contemporary interior designs that utilise tiles, glass, marble, and chrome finishes. Think of a modern-day kitchen that uses large slabs of marble or stone for their kitchen islands and benches.


Conversely, if you have an interior that uses more rustic elements such as bricks, wood (including logs), terracotta and worn stone, swivel chairs with leather or upholstered fabrics can bring the whole look together.

What Room Does a Swivel Chair Belong In?

Given the variety of swivel chairs out there, there’s almost certainly a swivel chair for most of the rooms in your home. It all ultimately depends on what you want a swivel chair for. 


If you’re looking for an ergonomic swivel chair for working at home, then your home office or makeshift workspace is where it belongs. Tall swivel bar stools are best suited to a bar area or by a kitchen bench where you may sit for your meals.


The reclining swivel lounge chairs are usually best suited to the living room or other entertainment area of your home (such as the rumpus room or in a home theatre setting).
