The Best West Elm Products We Discovered in 2024 (as Low as $27!)

We knew this quaint shower curtain from West Elm’s collaboration with RHODE would be an instant hit. AT's Senior Style Editor, Blair, credits it with transforming the entire look of her bathroom. “After a lifetime of being a plain, all-white shower curtain person, I’m officially on the fun, patterned bathroom decor bandwagon, thanks to the RHODE Thistle Shower Curtain — which is also perfect for distracting from the fact that my bathroom’s absolutely impossible to keep clean,” her review reads. The curtain stuns with its marigold motif and snazzy ruffles. Plus, it’s machine-washable!

As the owner of the Harmony sofa, I can say with confidence that this is one of the most comfortable couches West Elm has. Not only are its back and seat cushions supremely soft and bouncy, but the seat is also deep enough for me to recline and even nap on. The customizable sofa is available in a slew of pretty upholstery fabrics; I highly recommend the performance velvet, as stains lift right out of it.

Flower-shaped lamps reigned supreme this year, and when you take one look at this whimsical example, it’s no wonder why. Although the lamp is technically designed for a child’s room, there’s nothing stopping you from adorning your space with it. It’s available in two colors and boasts a sturdy iron frame. If you scroll down, you’ll see a sconce and floor lamp version, too.

Although this small-space-friendly item is technically a nightstand, Deputy Commerce Editor Alicia uses it as a side table and describes it as stylish and less clunky than the average square side table. “I think it creates an interesting focal point in my living room and makes it look larger,” she says in her review. “It’s also the perfect height for my couch — it’s the exact same height as the armrest.” The table is made of steel and comes in two finishes.

This past year, I went to West Elm and tested all of the retailer’s rugs in-store. Of the models I covered, the Lumini is definitely one of the most versatile options. It’s relatively easy to clean and a breeze to style, thanks to its subtle pattern. Whether you live alone with your pet or in a bustling household, you can’t go wrong with this pick.

West Elm’s Penn Chair just screams cozy, doesn’t it? Thick cushions and high arms make it comfortable to sit in, while the soft velvet finish and bold metal legs give it just enough flair. Commerce SEO Writer Haley says the chair made her friend’s small apartment feel more inviting. “She loves it — it was exactly what her empty corner was missing," she says in her review. "It’s the ideal blend of an accent chair and something she’ll actually use, not just for show.”

West Elm might be best known for its chic furniture, but it’s also home to some of the best bedding around. Case in point? The silky TENCEL modal sheet set. Designed to be “more absorbent than cotton, softer than silk, and cooler than linen,” these sheets will transform any bed into the ultimate sleep oasis. Commerce SEO Editor Sarah, who tested the set, called the sheets soft yet breathable and moisture-wicking. In other words, they’re great for hot sleepers.

Of course, we had to include the velvet curtains that made our Best List in this roundup. These can be purchased individually or in a set of two, as well as with or without a blackout lining (although we definitely recommend with). Contributor Kendall also found that the curtains helped retain heat in her New York City apartment during the winter months, plus the plush curtains didn't fade, shrink, or wrinkle after multiple washes. They're well-made in every sense.

Not only did this curved sofa win a spot on our Design Awards list, but contributor Sarah also considers it to be the most ideal sofa style for her small living room. “The sofa features a chic, low-profile bat wing back that gently curves at its ends — a silhouette that feels minimalist but not too modern in style,” her review notes. “It complements my eclectic, vintage decor perfectly. The ‘clay’ colored velvet reads as tan in person, and it’s neutral enough to work well with many other shades so it can really jibe with any aesthetic.”

This sleek rattan bin will give your bedroom an instant and discrete style boost. It’s available in both a lidded and unlidded option, and Alicia says hers slid seamlessly under her bed frame with a seven-inch height. “The basket is currently holding one quilt, a sheet set, and some random small items that I couldn’t find a place for elsewhere,” she says in her review. This basket might look slim, but it is, in fact, quite roomy.

Love the look of a tufted sofa? The Drake is a compact, tailored couch that’ll instantly dress up your space. It has crisp lines, a solid oak construction, and reversible cushions that made Commerce Editor Britt’s family fall in love with it. In fact, her brother owns two! “Not only does the furniture look amazing in their spacious living room, but it’s also seen its fair share of crumbs, spills, splatters, and markers,” her review reads. “I also loved how comfortable the sofas are: They have just the right balance of firmness and coziness, which makes them great for naps, lounging, and the many movie nights we’ve had as a family.”

This breathable, year-round blanket is another favorite of Alicia’s. “I sleep under it year-round, and I can be a picky sleeper, so that is giving the blanket the highest compliment in my eyes,” she says in her review. “It is a bit of a splurge, but I can tell by the material and quality of the blanket that I’ll have it on my bed for years to come.” Snag it in white or ivory.

If you’ve been looking to swap out an old bath mat, this bestseller would make a great pick, according to Haley. “I enjoy how cushiony and soft it feels underfoot,” she says after testing it for our Best List. “The fact that it has a removable cover makes washing it super easy.” The memory foam mat also sports an eye-catching circle design and absorbs water in a flash.

You might rent your current place, but that shouldn’t stop you from taking advantage of wall storage solutions. As long as you employ shelves like this no-nail number, you’ll be fine. This slim engineered wood shelf can be attached to any wall using double-sided adhesive strips, and it can hold up to five pounds. Use it to display photos or store magazines and stationery.
