I was shopping for a couple of poufs, but I didn’t like how they were fancy beanbags that don’t hold their shapes. I also needed a neutral color because I like to change decorations and pillows for the holidays and seasons. I found these and LOVE THEM! very firm - not bean bag at all. My teens can drag them all around the room as needed. One handle is all you need. I wouldn’t stand on them - top is soft and I don’t think they are quite that durable. Comfy height for sitting by the fire or putting your feet on. Could also pose as a low side table with a tray of drinks and snacks. Most importantly for us - it’s extra seating that isn’t too bulky.
