The best daybeds make for a luxurious windowside lounge—feet propped, book cracked open on your lap, maybe even a dog to share it with. We want you to have that feeling, so we’ve assembled just the list for manifesting it. A good daybed does the work of a futon, a sleeper sofa, an extra bed in a pinch for one-too-many overnight guests. In small spaces, a piece of furniture that can pull double-duty is essential. Some of our picks even include storage shelves for maximum efficiency. Whether you’re looking for something to outfit your kid’s room for sleepovers, your guest room for flexible sleeping space, or something just for you—a peaceful interior design moment for lounging, here are 10 picks with design in mind.Our Top Picks for Daybeds:Most Midcentury Inspired: Sunset Daybed by Brigette Romanek, $1,599The Luxury Pick: Lulu and Georgia Fabienne Daybed, $3,798Most Versatile Daybed: Jaxx Alon Fold-Out Sleeper Daybed, $799 $600A Designer Favorite: Herman Miller Nelson Daybed, $2,895Pageant Winner: Soho Home Marcia Daybed, $2,295Sunset Daybed by Brigette RomanekSpecsFrame material: Solid Hevea wood feetDimensions: 21"H x 83"W x 38"DWe couldn’t get enough of Brigette Romanek’s collaboration with Crate and Barrel, which delivered a covetable catalog of accessible luxury pieces. We’re still pining after this chic daybed for its unique silhouette and midcentury design influence. Another perk is the built-in storage—a shelf below can hold your burgeoning to-read list, blankets, games, or whatever it is you’re reaching for.Lulu and Georgia Fabienne DaybedSpecsFrame material: Solid kiln-dried hardwood and furniture grade laminates, metal casterDimensions: 79"W x 36"D x 31"HWhatever color or fabric you’re looking for, the Fabienne Daybed has it. We’re partial to the Cinnamon Porto velvet, which looks so cozy we’re tempted to toss our bed altogether and start sleeping on this in the living room. Casters make this daybed easy to roll from room to room, should you need some home decor with versatility.Jaxx Alon Fold-Out Sleeper DaybedSpecsFrame material: Solid Hevea wood feetDimensions: 80"L x 60"W x 9"HThis platform daybed is not quite as luxe as the options above, sure, but certainly just as comfortable, and with the added benefit of being 25% of the cost. The twin daybed folds out into a queen-size bed, making it perfect for a guest room, and it’s able to comfortably host one or two people. Poly-velvet makes this super soft to the touch, and the added golden platform foot detail gives it a style-conscious design.Herman Miller Nelson DaybedSpecsFrame material: Variable upon selections, ash or walnutDimensions: Variable upon selections, 15"H x 75"W x 32¾"WTrue design enthusiasts will be endeared to this Herman Miller piece. It's extremely customizable—you can choose from tapered or hairpin legs, for either a midcentury or more modern look, include or forego a backrest, and pick between ash or walnut for the base. The upholstery has upwards of 40 options, from checkered to boucle to velvet. For a daybed that says a thing or two about your curated taste in design, this forever piece is worth the price.Soho Home Marcia DaybedSpecsFrame material: Oak and birchDimensions: 75"W x 36"D x 21"HThis design hovers between midcentury-modern and Art Nouveau—luxury without being quite ornate. This upholstered daybed features a feather-wrapped seat cushion and two bolster cushions in rust velvet, all grounded with a dark wood frame. It’s suitable seating for staring at renowned paintings, we think, as well as for reading 500-page classics. Or simply for taking a well-deserved nap.Bunny Williams Home Rattan Annabel DaybedSpecsFrame material: Rattan palmDimensions: 32"H x 83"W x 41.5"DIt’s pricey because it’s perfect. We couldn’t pass up the opportunity to mention this rare rattan daybed with a sweeping backrest and ornate wicker patterning. This is exactly the sort of daybed we imagine on a screened-in porch, sunny afternoon, chilled mojitos, a whole weekend ahead of you. At 40 inches deep and 80 inches wide, it comfortably seats two, horizontally or vertically.Arhaus Cameran DaybedSpecsFrame material: Cross-directional hardwood laminaterDimensions: 84"W x 39"D x 28"HRefined chenille and a can’t-find-anywhere-else fabric make this tufted, vintage-looking pick from Arhaus one of our favorites. Two backrests comfortably seat two, and otherwise this makes a beautiful statement piece anywhere in your home.West Elm Mid-Century DaybedSpecsFrame material: Kiln-dried solid eucalyptus wood and engineered wood with an Acacia wood veneerDimensions: 78"W x 42"D x 35"HThis pick from West Elm really keeps the bed in daybed. At 78 inches long, this frame is suitable for a twin size mattress, and it comes with a functioning headboard. And while it’s a perfect resolution for an overnight guest space—and a great-looking alternative to the classic trundle bed—it looks organic in any of your living spaces as a high-quality midcentury piece.CB2 Yarrow Left-Arm ChaiseSpecsFrame material: Engineered woodDimensions: 29"H x 85"W x 38"DOkay, so it’s a chaise, really, but the lounge factor is the same. This piece feels designed for day-dreaming, with its plush platform base and tufted backing. While we’re pro camel boucle, this comes in twill, linen, velvet weaves, and a plethora of colors to suit your living space. This design feels particularly versatile, and calls no attention to itself as a “functional” piece, while still being one.West Elm Zixuan Tete-a-Tete ChaiseSpecsFrame material: Solid pine and engineered wood frameDimensions: 81"W x 47"D x 26.3"DThe romantic design of this daybed makes it ideal for long talks or shared morning coffees. Its design is minimalist without being edgy or bare. Plus, the plush upholstery and neutral brown create an inviting seat for two. If we had our pick, we’d pair it with a wide window and a soft Beni Ourain rug.How We Chose the Best DaybedsA good daybed serves as extra seating, but a great daybed is multifunctional—as suitable for the guest room as it is for a home office or living room. We only chose daybeds we felt managed versatility as well as delivered on quality design. We looked through a range of styles to find ones that seemed both modern and accessible, and could blend easily to many design types. We pulled from our favorite furniture stores, like West Elm, Design Within Reach, Soho Home, considering a range of price points to suit every budget. We also scanned reviews for each product, making sure those we hadn’t tested ourselves were beloved by their customers.The materials of each pick stood out to us for their high-quality—among them: solid wood, acacia veneer, walnut, oak, and birch. Quality wood means these are pieces with longevity, so the price point is worth the investment. While these picks are best suited for indoor use, you can refer to our guide here on daybeds better suited for the outdoors.
