Pouf and footstool, decorative accessories

Footstools and footrests can be used indoors, in the living room, bedroom or bathroom, or outdoors, on your terrace or balcony.

Finally, the pouf can also be used as an occasional piece of furniture for magazines or TV remote controls.

Choosing size and material

Among the various poufs on the market, you'll find models with and without feet. The soft pouf is both a cushion and an armchair. Covered in fabric or leather, it is upholstered in polyester foam. To choose the dimensions of this product, you first need to determine how it will be used. If the idea is to provide your child with extra seating, a 40 cm diameter pouf will suffice, while the height should be 50 cm. You'll also find XXL poufs, up to 180 cm high and 150 cm in diameter. These designer but bulky models need to find their place in your home. Generally speaking, it's best to choose poufs of a reasonable size so as not to clutter up your space. Fabric is a good compromise for your living room or bedroom. It's ideal if you want to add a touch of whimsy and color: soft green, saffron yellow, houndstooth pattern, leather with chrome legs, or even the characteristic beige of woven jute. A footstool for a child's bedroom will easily drag along the floor and collect dust. So it's best to choose one with removable covers and shock resistance.
