Not every child's bedroom has space for a full furniture set. If you're working with a box room, a shared bedroom or a corner of the living room, a single armchair and a fold-out lounger can give your little one a cosy spot of their own without taking over the floor. That's exactly what our Quilted Eco Leather Kids Chair & Lounger is designed for.
In this guide we look at what's in the set, how it works in small spaces and how to set up a reading nook your child will actually use.
What's in the Chair & Lounger set?
- 1 foam kids' armchair, approx. 50 x 40 x 40 cm: a proper seat sized for little ones.
- 1 fold-out foam lounger, approx. 40 x 60 x 40 cm folded. Unfold it and it becomes a 120 cm mini bed or floor lounger.
- Quilted eco-leather covers that wipe clean and are removable.
- All foam, no frame. No hard edges, legs or screws, and no assembly.
It's designed for children aged roughly 3 to 6 years, and both pieces are light enough for them to move about on their own.
Why a two-piece set works so well in small rooms
A folded lounger takes up about the same floor space as a pouffe. That means you get a seat and a footrest during the day and a stretch-out lounger for quiet time, all from a footprint that fits beside a bed or under a window.
- Two pieces, two jobs. The chair is for sitting up with a book; the lounger folds out for lying down with a film or a nap.
- Use it as a footstool. Folded, the lounger sits in front of the chair as a footrest or a little surface for colouring.
- Easy to tidy away. Fold the lounger, push the chair against the wall and the floor is clear again in seconds.
How to set up a reading nook in five steps
- Pick a corner with natural light, ideally by a window but away from radiators.
- Add the chair and lounger side by side, or with the lounger folded in front as a footstool.
- Put books at their height. A low shelf or forward-facing book rack lets children choose for themselves.
- Soften the floor with a rug or one of our play mats.
- Add a lamp out of reach for bedtime stories.

Why quilted eco-leather?
Eco-leather is a faux leather that's soft to sit on and very easy to look after. Spills, sticky fingers and crayon marks usually wipe off with a damp cloth and mild soap, so there's no need to unzip and wash a cover every time. The quilted stitching gives a padded feel and a smart, furniture-like finish that sits comfortably alongside grown-up décor.

Frequently asked questions
Can the lounger be used as a bed?
It unfolds into a mini bed for naps, quiet time and sleepovers, but it isn't designed as a child's full-time overnight bed. For a dedicated rest space, see our guide to toddler floor beds.
How do I clean it?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid bleach, solvents and abrasive sprays.
Does it need assembling?
No. Unpack it, let the foam settle and it's ready to use.
Is it suitable for nurseries?
Yes. The wipe-clean covers make it practical for nurseries, childminders and waiting areas. Always supervise young children during play.
