I bought the gray pouf ottoman. It's well made and a lot sturdier than I thought it would be. It's stiff and will easily hold up to feet. I use it to sit on. It's not terribly comfortable to sit on, but it's stiff enough to keep me off the floor. The room I put it in has more of a bluer gray theme. This ottoman is more of a taupey gray, but it doesn't look too bad.
