Using your ottoman is super easy. You can place it in your living room, bedroom, or any other space as a footrest while you relax on the couch or in a chair. Or, pull it up as an extra seat when you have guests. If you need a small surface for a drink or a book, it can also act as a makeshift table. As for maintenance, since it's made of 100% cotton, you can spot clean it with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they might damage the fabric. Keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading. And remember, this ottoman is for home use only, not for commercial settings.
