This is a great knit pouf. I wanted to pair one with my pedestal coffee table and this fit perfectly. This pouf is medium-firm, but will squish down if enough weight is put on it. It’s filled with small foam pellets that hold the shape well. The only issue I could see someone having with this is that the pouf under the knit is visible (this can be seen in my second image). I don’t mind, but some people might. Overall, it’s a cute piece that functions well.
