Over the last five years of researching, testing, and writing about products, we’ve featured a lot of things from West Elm. Their clean-feeling European-flax linen sheets have been slept on and recommended by our editors. Their nappable and nice-looking Harmony down-filled sofa is beloved by Strategist readers and interior designers alike (and has even been purchased by one of our writers for their own living room). As a merchant, West Elm carries lots of home décor, kitchen gadgets, and gifts that we’ve written about before, like a deceptively heavy knitted blanket from Bearaby and our longtime pick for the best (and best-looking) electric kettle from Fellow.

So when the folks at West Elm asked if we’d like to partner up and curate a digital shop to live on their website, it seemed like a no-brainer. Starting today, you’ll be able to shop over 40 of our favorites at the Strategist Shop at West Elm, from upholstered bedroom benches to easy-to-clean bamboo place mats. Everything featured in this one-stop shop has been pulled from our archive and was independently vetted, recommended, and curated by our writers and editors.

Shop some of our picks here, and check out WestElm.com/TheStrategist to see the whole collection, which will run through the end of next year. And keep checking that link: We’ll be adding more Strategist-approved products as the year goes on.

The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels. We update links when possible, but note that deals can expire and all prices are subject to change.
