Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
What is the ideal height for an ottoman relative to a sofa?
For optimal comfort and ergonomics, an ottoman should be roughly the same height or one to two inches lower than your sofa's seat cushions. At 19 inches tall, this piece sits at the ergonomic sweet spot for most contemporary sofas, providing a level surface for use as a footrest or additional guest seating.
How do you clean and maintain a fabric storage ottoman?
Based on our expertise with natural textiles, we recommend regular maintenance to keep the upholstery looking fresh. Dust the piece weekly with a soft brush attachment on your vacuum. For minor spills on this cotton fabric, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. If a stain persists, use a mixture of mild soap and warm water, taking care not to oversaturate the material, as natural fibers like cotton are most durable when kept relatively dry during cleaning.
Can this square ottoman function as a stable coffee table?
Yes, the 20-inch square shape provides a stable 400 square inches of surface area, which is well-suited for use as a "cocktail" ottoman. Because it is upholstered, we recommend using a flat-bottomed decorative tray to create a firm, level surface for drinks or decor. The skirted design and no-leg base provide extra stability, ensuring it stays in place while serving as a centerpiece.
Does this furniture piece require assembly upon delivery?
This hand-upholstered ottoman is designed for convenience and arrives fully assembled. Because it is made-to-order to ensure high-quality craftsmanship, please allow up to 6 weeks for delivery. Once it arrives, it is ready to be used as a storage solution or accent piece immediately.
Is a storage ottoman a practical choice for a small urban apartment?
Absolutely. In compact living spaces like city apartments, multi-functional furniture is essential. This square ottoman features a 20-inch by 20-inch footprint that fits easily into tight layouts, while the hidden interior storage provides a discreet place to tuck away blankets, media remotes, or toys, helping to maintain a clutter-free environment.
Is cotton upholstery a good option for homes in humid climates?
Cotton is a natural, highly breathable fiber, making it an excellent choice for homes in warmer or more humid coastal regions. Unlike some synthetic materials that can trap heat, cotton upholstery helps maintain a comfortable temperature. To preserve the vibrant blue hue, we recommend placing the ottoman away from direct, harsh sunlight to prevent natural fiber fading over time.
