What Is a Cuddle Chair? Swivel Cuddle & Snuggle Chairs in the UAE
Updated: Aug 30
If you have recently moved to Dubai from the UK or Europe, you may have searched for a cuddle chair or snuggle chair and found very few local results. The good news: this style of oversized swivel seat is exactly the kind of piece Adams Furniture custom-makes in our Dubai workshop.
Cuddle chair, snuggle chair, love seat — a quick glossary
Cuddle chair (or cuddler) — an extra-wide round chair, usually on a 360° swivel base, big enough for two people to curl up in.
Snuggle chair / snuggler — the same idea, slightly smaller; a UK high-street favourite, like our Halo Round Snuggle Chair.
Love seat — a compact two-seater sofa; on a rotating base it becomes a swivel loveseat. See the Cloud Loveseat.
Egg chair — a curved, cocoon-shaped swivel chair, often in bouclé.
Why cuddle chairs are hard to find in Dubai
Most UAE furniture retailers import container stock and stick to standard armchairs and three-seaters, so the wide-format swivel styles popular in Britain rarely make it onto local showroom floors. Importing one yourself means six-to-ten-week shipping and no choice of fabric.
The custom-made alternative
Because we manufacture in Al Quoz rather than import, we can build a cuddle chair to the exact width that suits your room — typically 110 to 140 cm — on a smooth steel swivel plate, upholstered in bouclé, linen or velvet. You approve the drawing before we build, and lead time is usually 3–4 weeks. Learn more about custom-made furniture in Dubai.
Sizing tip for UAE living rooms
Allow at least 80 cm of clear space around a round swivel chair so it can rotate fully without clipping a coffee table. In smaller apartments, a 100 cm snuggle chair with a slimmer arm profile gives the same feeling without dominating the room.
