FAQs
What are the dimensions of the footstool?
While specific dimensions are not provided in the description, it is a round storage footstool designed for comfortable seating and storage of small items.
How do I clean the velvet upholstery?
Spot clean spills immediately with a soft cloth. For general cleaning, use a mild upholstery cleaner suitable for velvet, and always test on a hidden area first. Avoid using excessive water or harsh chemicals.
Is assembly required?
Yes, the hairpin legs typically need to be attached to the base of the footstool, which usually involves screwing them into place.
What is the maximum weight capacity?
The product description does not specify a weight capacity, but the high-quality wood construction and stable design suggest it can support typical adult seating weight.
Can the storage compartment hold larger items?
The storage is described as handy for items like gloves, scarves, or remotes, suggesting it is best suited for smaller to medium-sized possessions rather than large blankets or multiple pillows.
What colors are available for the legs?
The product information mentions that the footstool is available in a choice of colour tones for both seat and legs, with specific SKUs listed for Gold, Silver, and Black legs.
Does the lid attach securely?
The lid is removable and designed to fit snugly onto the top of the stool, providing access to the storage compartment and completing the seamless look when in place.
Troubleshooting
Footstool wobbles
Ensure all four hairpin legs are screwed in fully and securely. Check that the floor surface is even. If the issue persists, consider placing a small pad under the affected leg.
Velvet fabric appears crushed or matted
Gently brush the velvet pile with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the pile to restore its texture. Avoid sitting on it while the velvet is damp.
Lid does not fit properly
Remove the lid and re-seat it, ensuring it is centered correctly on the base. Check for any obstructions inside the storage compartment that might be preventing a flush fit.
Scuff marks on metal legs
Wipe the legs with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a metal polish designed for the specific metal finish (e.g., gold-tone), testing in a small area first.
