Product Information
Full details
The Safar Plain Ottoman Storage Box is an ideal solution for homeowners and apartment dwellers looking to maximize space without sacrificing aesthetic appeal. It offers a generous storage capacity for bedding, shoes, and household essentials while doubling as a comfortable bench or footstool; however, users should note that the 137cm length requires a significant footprint, making it less suitable for very compact entryways or small bedrooms.

FAQs
Can this be used as a primary coffee table?
Yes, its height and stability make it a great alternative to a coffee table, though we recommend using a serving tray to protect the surface from drink spills.
How much weight can the seat support?
The frame is designed for durable everyday use and can comfortably accommodate the weight of two adults sitting simultaneously.
Is the upholstery fabric easy to clean?
The plain finish is designed for low maintenance; general dust can be vacuumed, and spot cleaning with a damp cloth is usually sufficient for minor marks.
Does the ottoman come with legs?
The Safar Plain Ottoman is designed as a floor-standing unit to maximize stability and provide a seamless look.
Are there other colors available?
Yes, the Safar series comes in several variations including white, grey, black, purple, and blue to match different color palettes.
Is the hinge soft-close?
The hinge is designed for smooth operation, but always ensure you guide the lid down to prevent accidental pinching.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not close flush
Check that the interior items are not protruding above the rim of the storage box.
Hinges feel stiff or noisy
Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the hinge pivot points.
Upholstery appears flattened
Gently brush the fabric or use a garment steamer on a low setting to help the fibers recover.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The ottoman arrives largely pre-assembled, requiring only minimal placement effort. Ensure the floor area is level to prevent the frame from stressing unevenly. For care, vacuum the upholstery regularly to remove dust and debris. If a spill occurs, blot with a clean, damp cloth immediately, avoiding harsh chemicals or excess moisture that could penetrate the high-density foam. To maintain the hinges, avoid slamming the lid shut; a gentle guide to the closed position will ensure the mechanism lasts for years.
