Overview of studio apartment with small blue velvet sofa and canopy bed.

When I moved into my first small apartment, I quickly became frustrated with it. It took a long period of trial and error to make all of my belongings fit without looking cluttered. I had to get creative by swapping my old furniture out for pieces that had built-in storage, finding items that utilized vertical space, and more. Honestly, even though I’ve lived in tiny apartments for years at this point, I still view it as an ongoing process — I’m always on the lookout for furniture and home essentials that’ll do an even better job of maximizing my space.

Still, even if a clever upgrade is necessary, it can get pricey. That’s where Walmart comes in — I’ve found 10 markdowns that are specially suited to small spaces. Editor-approved shelf risers, stylish storage bins, a lift-top coffee table, and more are on sale, so you can start the year off on the right foot by saving money and making your home more efficient. Scroll to figure out what you should add to your cart ASAP!

Better Homes & Gardens Springwood 5-Shelf Bookcase

Going vertical is key in a small space, so this gorgeous bookcase is a smart purchase. The open shelving will allow you to keep all of your trinkets and decor out on display, with the light honey-colored wood frame providing a warm, neutral backdrop.

SONGMICS Cabinet Organizers, 2-Pack
$50$20

Cabinet storage is valuable, and this space-maximizing find will double it. “I was able to make two rows of cups on a single shelf and store some underneath it, which opened up more space at the front of the cabinet so I didn’t worry about anything falling out,” says Commerce Editor, Britt, who swears by Songmics’ risers. “Even better, I could see more of the cups in the cabinet so nothing was getting lost.”

Beautiful Drew Modular Sectional Sofa with Ottoman by Drew Barrymore

Most sectionals are far too enormous for small spaces, but this one from Drew Barrymore’s Beautiful collection is surprisingly compact. You shouldn’t sacrifice comfort just because you’re working with a cramped living room or studio — instead, snag this under-$800 option and lounge in style.

Even your coffee table can be small-space-oriented.

I tested this bench myself and found it to be a small-space superhero. Not only did it create extra storage at the foot of my bed for my extensive coat collection, but its sturdy frame also added more seating for guests.
