When we’re purchasing a major piece of furniture on a website like Wayfair, the review section is usually the only way we get to vet if the quality is legitimate. That strategy works great when the item we’re considering has tons of comments, but there have been countless times we’ve come across a hidden gem that has no reviews at all. What then? 

That’s why we started asking interior designers for the best Wayfair purchases they’ve ever made. Because, yes, even pros like Sarah Sherman Samuel will shop the site from time to time and end up with really cute pieces, such as these scalloped kitchen stools. More often than not, they’re scouring Wayfair for furniture, like a guest room bed frame or a small living room rug, but we’ve also met a few pros who have dared to invest in a bathroom vanity and closet doors and been obsessed with the results. Here are a few more of their all-time favorites.
