Chandler Ottoman

In smaller environments, a large square ottoman can be a strategic "multi-tool" for your floor plan. Because it serves as a footrest, a coffee table, and extra guest seating all in one, it can actually reduce visual clutter by replacing three separate pieces of furniture. To maximize the airy feel of a small room, take advantage of the light ivory color, which reflects natural light and helps the space feel more open and expansive.

While both provide a place to rest your feet, a cocktail ottoman is specifically designed with a larger, flatter surface to double as a coffee table. This 42-inch square ottoman provides a substantial 1,764 square inches of surface area, making it an ideal centerpiece for holding decorative trays, books, or magazines while still offering the plush comfort of a cushioned seat.

This ottoman is upholstered in 100% polyester chenille, a synthetic fiber known for its durability and inherent resistance to stretching and pilling. While ivory is a lighter tone, the fabric's woven vertical stripes add a subtle texture that helps hide minor wear. Based on our material expertise, we recommend regular vacuuming with a soft brush attachment to prevent dust from settling into the chenille weave. For spills, our care guidelines suggest blotting immediately with a clean, dry cloth and using a mild detergent with water for spot cleaning.

A general design rule is that an ottoman should be approximately two-thirds the total width of your sofa or the interior length of your sectional's "L" shape. Given this piece's generous 42" x 42" dimensions, it is exceptionally well-suited for large-scale sectionals or open-plan living rooms where a smaller accent might feel lost. Its 16.5-inch height is also designed to align closely with standard sofa seat heights for ergonomic comfort.

Yes, though because the chenille fabric and plush cushioning provide a soft surface, we recommend pairing this ottoman with a large decorative tray. A tray provides a firm, level foundation for glassware and plates, effectively converting the piece into a functional cocktail table without sacrificing the safety of its soft-padded edges.

Many families prefer a cocktail ottoman over a traditional coffee table for safety reasons. This piece features a fully upholstered frame and soft corners, significantly reducing the risk of bumps or bruises compared to sharp-edged wood or glass tables. Additionally, its 16.5-inch height makes it an accessible, low-profile surface that can easily serve as an extra seat for kids during family movie nights.
