I’m always looking for furniture that can do double-duty — namely, help me keep my clutter under control. This microfiber-upholstered ottoman is perfect for stashing your remote-control collection or video games in the family room, or for hiding the tiny stuffed animals and toy cars usually strewn on the floor of your kids’ rooms. It comes golden brown or tan, so it’ll work with pretty much any decor; at 16-inches-by-17-inches, it’s small enough to tuck in a corner but large (and sturdy) enough to use as an extra seat.
