Stonefir Ottoman

While the soft, upholstered top is designed primarily for comfort, it can certainly function as a cocktail surface with the right approach. Because this model features a flat top and a sturdy solid and plywood frame, it provides more stability than a traditional plush pouf. We recommend using a decorative tray to create a firm, level surface for drinks or remotes, effectively turning this accent piece into a multi-functional transitional coffee table.

For optimal comfort, an ottoman should ideally sit at the same height or 1-2 inches lower than your sofa's seat cushions. With a height of 16 inches, this ottoman is specifically designed to pair well with most modern and transitional sofas, which typically have seat heights between 17 and 18 inches. This slightly lower profile allows your legs to rest at a natural, ergonomic angle, reducing pressure on the lower back.

This ottoman is built using a combination of solid wood and plywood. The solid wood provides the necessary weight and structural integrity, while the plywood layers are engineered to resist warping and cracking, even in climates with fluctuating humidity. This professional-grade frame construction ensures that the piece remains a stable and reliable seating option for guests, supporting more weight than simple cardboard or plastic-core alternatives.

Polyester is highly regarded for its exceptional durability and resilience in busy households. The synthetic fibers are naturally resistant to stretching, pilling, and wrinkling, ensuring the printed stripe design maintains its crisp appearance over time. Additionally, polyester is less absorbent than natural fibers, meaning spills tend to sit on the surface longer, providing you with a critical window to blot them away before they set.

To maintain the "natural" hue and the integrity of the striped pattern, we recommend regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment to remove dust and pet hair that can abrade the fibers. For spills, our general care guidance for polyester involves immediate blotting with a clean, dry cloth. Always check the specific cleaning code located on the item's tag before using water-based or solvent-based cleaners to ensure the longevity of the printed design.

This ottoman is an excellent choice for space-conscious urban living. Its compact 18-inch footprint allows it to provide extra seating or a footrest without obstructing traffic flow in narrow layouts. The unique hexagonal shape is particularly advantageous for smaller rooms; unlike traditional squares, the angled sides make it easier to navigate around in tight spaces, while the "no legs" design offers a grounded, sturdy feel that won't shift easily on apartment flooring.
