Hancock Park Ottoman

Yes, 100% polyester microfiber is one of the most durable and pet-friendly materials available. The tight weave of the fabric makes it naturally resistant to snags from cat or dog claws, unlike looser woven fabrics. Furthermore, pet hair tends to stay on the surface of microfiber rather than getting trapped in the fibers, allowing for easy removal with a vacuum or lint roller.

This ottoman is an excellent multi-functional alternative to a traditional coffee table, especially in homes where safety and comfort are priorities. Its 52-inch width provides a generous, stable surface. To make it even more functional for drinks or decor, we recommend placing a large decorative tray on the center. This creates a firm, level surface for items while maintaining the soft, kid-safe edges that make upholstered ottomans a popular choice for families.

Based on our furniture care expertise, microfiber is highly resilient to everyday messes. For general maintenance, we recommend regular dusting with a soft cloth and vacuuming with an upholstery attachment. For spills, it is best to blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. If a stain persists, you can use a solution of mild soap and warm water; however, always test a small, inconspicuous area first and avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the fabric’s soft texture.

In smaller or narrow living spaces, a rectangular ottoman is often more space-efficient than a square or round one. Its 26.5-inch depth allows for plenty of walking room between the furniture and your media console, while the 52-inch width ensures it still offers significant utility. In a compact apartment, this piece "works harder" by serving as a footrest, a coffee table substitute, and extra seating, maximizing every square foot of your floor plan.

The solid wood block legs provide a sturdy, high-quality foundation that ensures the ottoman remains stationary and stable during use. Unlike lighter plastic alternatives, these tapered wood legs are built for longevity and finished in a two-tone brown that complements traditional and transitional decor. The block style specifically helps distribute weight evenly, making it safe to use as a reliable extra seat when entertaining guests.

When choosing an ottoman, a professional rule of thumb is the "two-thirds rule"—the piece should ideally be about two-thirds the length of your sofa. At 52 inches wide, this rectangular ottoman is perfectly scaled to complement standard 80- to 90-inch sofas. Additionally, its 20-inch height is designed to sit flush with or slightly below most standard seat cushions, ensuring an ergonomic and comfortable transition for your legs.
