Abstract

A chair or sofa including a seat, an enclosed armrest adjacent to the seat, and a thermoelectric refrigeration compartment, mounted within the armrest is provided.
The armrest includes an upper portion connected to a main portion of the armrest by a hinge along an outer surface thereof, movable away from a home position against the main portion of the armrest, the compartment preferably being mounted in the main portion such that moving the upper portion away from the home position exposes the upper surface of the compartment. The compartment may have an upwardly opening lid which opens to a thermoelectrically cooled or heated cavity which may be sized to accept several beverage containers or in an alternate embodiment it may be sized to accept one upright beverage container.
