Dover Ottoman

When selecting an ottoman, it’s important to consider both proportionality and traffic flow. This rectangle ottoman measures 41 inches wide and 25 inches deep, making it an ideal anchor for standard three-seat sofas or larger sectionals. For the most balanced look in a small apartment or cozy living area, we recommend choosing an ottoman that is approximately two-thirds the length of your sofa. This ensures ample surface area for use as a footrest or extra seat without overwhelming the room’s footprint.

While the plush box cushion is designed for comfort, you can easily transform the surface into a functional table. Our interior design experts recommend using a decorative tray to create a flat, stable area for beverages, remotes, or candles. The 41-inch width provides plenty of space to place a large tray on one side while still leaving room to use the other side as a comfortable footrest.

This ottoman stands at 22 inches high, which is designed to align comfortably with most contemporary sofa seat heights. For optimal ergonomics, an ottoman should be equal to or slightly lower than your sofa cushions to allow your legs to rest at a natural, relaxed angle. The tall, tapered legs not only add a retro-inspired vertical appeal but also provide enough clearance to make vacuuming underneath simple and efficient.

Yes, this ottoman is upholstered in 100% polyester chenille, a material known for its exceptional durability and soft, inviting texture. The tight weave of high-quality polyester makes it more resistant to common wear and tear compared to looser natural fibers. Additionally, the soft, padded box cushion and upholstered corners provide a safer, "child-friendly" alternative to traditional wood or metal coffee tables, which often have sharp edges.

Based on our furniture care expertise, we recommend regular maintenance to keep the beige chenille looking new. For daily care, lightly vacuum the upholstery with a brush attachment to remove dust and debris. If a spill occurs, blot it immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For spot cleaning, our guide recommends using a soft rag with warm water and a mild detergent or light soap. Always avoid harsh chemicals to preserve the integrity of the polyester fibers and the richness of the beige color.
