What’s the difference between a pouffe & an ottoman?
A great question, as they are similar but you’ll often hear them talked about as the same thing. The key difference is the feet. Ottomans tend to be raised up onto 4 feet and are typically larger. Pouffes on the other hand are usually more compact and are at floor level.
Either kind can come as just a footstool or with a hidden internal compartment for storage. They both make great additions for your space and we’ve got loads on offer at The Range.
Phew, explanations done. Now let’s get shopping for your favourites!
Rest your feet on a stylish pouffe
The perfect way to add an opulent touch to your room plus a place to put your feet up. Plus, our range of luxurious fabrics make a bold statement. It’s the ideal decorative but practical accent to add to your furniture setup.
Plus, the compact shape and size of our pouffes with storage means you’ll be able to make the most of even the most snug spaces. Need a place to pop your hair dryer in your dressing room? It’s the perfect spot to tuck away things that need a home.
Go for a luxurious ottoman
An ottoman stool is a perfect way to add somewhere for guests to perch in your lounge while also giving you extra space to tuck away blankets or even the kids’ toys.
An elongated design can make an on-trend alternative to a coffee table. Simply spread a folded blanket across it and top with a decorative wooden tray to hold hot drinks, TV remotes and other living room knick-knacks.
You could also position one at the end of your bed frame to add some flair to your bedroom while being a handy place to pop extra blankets or bed linen.
Want to turn the space underneath a bay window into something special? Opt for a storage bench.

How do you care for ottomans & pouffes?
Different fabrics will have different care needs. We’d always advise seeking specific guidance from the manufacturer. However, some general care guidance for fabric furniture is:
- Gently vacuum up any dirt or debris with a brush nozzle attachment
- Spot clean any marks quickly by blotting (not rubbing) with a clean, damp cloth
- Position out of direct sunlight to avoid colour fading from UV exposure
We hope this helps you keep your home furnishings looking great for years to come!
