The Ottoman is round, a multi-functional ottoman that can be used to sit or serve on in a fun, French script fabric. It is padded all the way around making it kid-friendly and safe for kneecaps as well. The padded top also makes it comfortable to sit on when entertaining, but also firm enough to serve on if you desire. The top seating or serving area is sturdy enough to not slide around but light enough to easily move to clean or take to another room. The 100% Polypropylene Olefin is also a Revolution material making it one of the most stain-resistant, easily cleanable fabrics ever made. ****Due to lighting and monitor differences, actual colors and finishes may vary slightly from what appears online****
