Ottoman

An ottoman is a piece of furniture. Generally, ottomans have neither backs nor arms. They may be an upholstered low couch or a smaller cushioned seat used as a table, stool or footstool.

The seat may have hinges and a lid, allowing the space inside to be used for storing linen, magazines, or other items, making it a form of storage furniture.
The smaller version is usually placed near to an armchair or sofa as part of living room decor, or may be used as a fireside seat.
