Homeowners are heaping praise on an elegant velvet chair from Dunelm, with many stating they simply couldn't resist purchasing it. The Elsie Velvet Cocktail Chair, priced at just £99, is being celebrated for appearing far more costly than its actual price tag suggests.
Stylish Design and Colour Options
The Elsie Velvet Cocktail Chair is currently available in two sophisticated colourways: grey and mushroom. Its compact design makes it an ideal addition to various spaces, from bedrooms to conservatories, offering a splash of colour and style without overwhelming the room.
According to Dunelm's product description, the chair is upholstered in a soft-touch velvet fabric and features a sturdy solid wood frame. It includes a foam-filled seat for comfort and requires easy assembly, primarily involving attaching the legs.
Glowing Customer Reviews
With a 4.8-star rating on Dunelm's website, the chair has garnered numerous positive reviews from satisfied customers:
- JC remarked, "A comfy chair, stylish and sturdy. Great for the bedroom. Easy to put the legs on. Great quality and looks much more expensive. Great value and far cheaper than other brands. Highly recommend."
- Davis shared, "This chair, I've waiting to purchase for the past few years as it was on special offer, I just couldn't resist and treated myself. Such a comfy chair, very soft to touch and very elegant to look at. Ideal for short people like myself."
- Gilly commented, "Lovely little chair and excellent value for money. Fairly comfortable and makes a great addition to my spare bedroom. Can be used as a dressing table chair. Purchased in the sale with 20 per cent off! What’s not to like!"

- Suzie added, "Love this chair. Great price and quality. Bought the mushroom colour for my conservatory and was exactly what i wanted. Easy to put together. Just had to screw the legs on."
One shopper noted a minor drawback, saying, "I needed a small comfortable chair for my bedroom and found just what I'd been looking for in this chair. Its lovely and look more than what I paid for it. Like other reviewers, it could have done with a little more padding in the seat but it doesn't defer how nice it is and comfortable."
