What is an Ottoman?
An ottoman is a versatile piece of furniture typically used as a footrest, additional seating, or even as a coffee table. Ottomans come in various shapes, sizes and materials. Whether you choose an upholstered ottoman for a plush, luxurious feel or a storage ottoman to discreetly hide away blankets and magazines, this multifunctional furniture item is a must-have.
The Right Height for Your Ottoman
When selecting an ottoman, consider its height in relation to your existing furniture. The ideal height of an ottoman should match or be slightly lower than the seat height of your sofa or chair. This ensures comfort as a footrest and keeps your space visually balanced. If you're using it as a coffee table, a lower height may be preferable to allow easy access to drinks and snacks.

Choosing the Right Bench
Consider your room’s layout and style when selecting a bench. For those with limited space, a slimline bench can offer seating without overwhelming the room, while a storage bench provides the added benefit of hidden storage.
