    I wasn’t expecting this to be quite as sturdy as it is!
    I imagined it would be very flimsy and floppy, But it’s not, it’s rigid and also holds a fair amount of toys. The colour fits perfectly with our front room

    I was worried this would be fragile but it’s not, once it is assembled which took only a few minutes it is quite sturdy, strong enough to sit on, very pleased with purchase.

    Love it. The colour is very close to the colour of my bed, so that is a bonus as well. The ottoman is very sturdy, it’s really easy to put it together. The divider is a nice touch. The top is well cushioned. I recommended this product.

    This ottoman is big enough for what I need it for the colour is nice lovely shade of grey easy to set up and once the lid goes on helps make the whole thing sturdy

    I got the widest one (110cm) in black. It’s very good. Heavier than I expected, especially the lid. Very capacious, nice quality finish, and feels extremely sturdy to sit on. Plus, it all folds into the size of its own lid seen you need it to. Great value too. Can’t ask for more.

    This is the third product that I buy from SONGMICS and they are proving to be of good quality and durable. I bought this square chest to match the 2 Large Storage Ottoman boxes that I bought a few years ago. The product matches the product description. It’s missing the five stars for the over 10 price raise for exactly the same products. Recommended.

    Love this storage ottoman! I bought it to hold my makeup as something I can use as storage and also to sit on to do my makeup. I set it up in 5 seconds, love the colour (more than I did online,) and it’s extremely sturdy to sit on! Couldn’t love it more!

    Really pleased with purchase. Used for my hallway next to a shoe cabinet. I use it to keep my shopping bags, umberella, hat and scarf. Sturdy enough for me (approx 10 stone in weight) to use to sit on to put on and off shoes and trainers. Visitors have commented on the lovely light grey colour and how smart it looks.

    Very sturdy, excellent purchase. Brought this for my bedroom to store my bedsheets and my hoodies and jumpers as they are to bulky for my drawers. Spacious, durable and sturdy can sit on in too. Highly recommended !

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI was looking for something to store my cockapoo’s toys but could also be used as a seat or footrest. It was very easy to make, as all you have to do is push the bottom in and this makes it into a box. Plenty of room to store the toys and a padded top makes it a good footrest. Looks smart too. My only criticism is that, while it will be fine to sit on (your weight is spread, and I weigh 16 stone), do not stand on it. I also once used it to lean on while getting off the floor, and as my weight was all on my hand the side gave way. This would not stop me buying another, as I know not to abuse it. Use it for what it was designed, and you will be pleased.

    I really liked like the appearance of this ottoman which supplies much needed extra storage in one of my bedrooms. It is sturdy, easy to assemble but the storage capacity is limited by the central divider. I I appreciate the central divider helps make the ottoman sturdy, but with large thick items such as double bedspreads the whole length would be needed to obtain suitable storage. I tried removing the central divider but the ottoman became much less stable. So I would only recommend this for less bulky items such as sheets, pillowcases and towels.

    This is used for storage at the bottom of the bed (replaced a big sofa in the bedroom) I had looked for an ottoman that could take a bit of weight when 2 people were sitting on it to put their shoes on, and this product said that it could take 300kg. I can believe it. Its simple, sturdy and amazing value for money.

    This storage chest is perfect for hiding and storing fitness equipment in the living room. I’m able to fit x2 1.5kg, 3kg, 5kg, 10kg, 12.5kg 15kg dumbbells (12 in total) and 3 kettle bells all in one place! That’s alongside my exercise mat, exercise bands and skipping rope.

    The chest looks really tidy and you’d never know what’s in there. I also have a smaller unit holding a couple of heavier dumbbells in the kitchen.

    Highly recommended!!

    Something of an Amazon price premium on these ottomans generally as they’re basically the same size and build as the ones Wilko’s/Wilkinson do for 14/20, albeit with the addition of stitching on the top.

    Can’t really complain about the quality as it’s really not bad at all, but if you want to save a tenner and you aren’t too far from a high street then you have that option.

    Was simple and intuitive to assemble and more sturdy then expected after you put the base plate in. It stores a pretty good amount and is a good height for a foot rest for my armchair.

    The reason this is 4 not 5 stars though is the ridges on the pillow part that divide the square pattern; they can feel pretty uncomfy under your feet at times but I find it pretty tolerable. Overall its a great product and one I do find super useful

    I bought this to go with my new IKEA Strandmon Armchair, as the armchair is in a small room, I didn’t really have space for the IKEA matching footstool, so I looked on Amazon and found this in dark grey, it’s a lot more compact than Ikea’s footrest and I can even store random stuff inside it meaning less waisted space, plus as it’s collapsible, If I need the space back I can fold it up and put out of the way easily.

    The colour is decent match for the IKEA Strandmon, not perfect of course, but decent, I have the dark grey version, but you could get away with light grey too, this footstool seams nice and sturdy and the cushion on top is soft enough for my ankles. Overall if you’re looking for a decent footrest for a chair/sofa in a small space, this is brilliant.

    We don’t have recliners on our sofa & so frustrating sometimes when you just want to put your feet up so when I saw this I was a bit sceptical as I didn’t know how practical it would be. BUT I’m so glad I bought it. Assembled in seconds, I’ve sat on it & it’s really sturdy & great to put feet up on. Folds up just as quickly & stores away by our corner unit. Would definitely recommend.

    We bought the 110cm long one – Only had it a couple of days so cannot comment on durability but feels robust, has taken a good proportion of the toys we needed it for. Has neatened the place up and makes for a really comfortable seat for 3 ppl. No assembly required just pull it open and it pops into position then put the lid on.Only criticism is that the inner divider doesn’t stay put and it cd have done with two “hand holds” on the sides to enable moving it once it’s full of the storage item. Apart from that so far very little to fault it lots to commend it.

    I got this to replace my 7 year old ugly cheap plastic shoe stand that I had since Uni and jsut never thought to replace.

    It sits at the bottom of my bed holding all my shoes. There is a divider you can put in which means I have the choice to divide the inside and store other things while keeping them safe from my shoes. Right now it’s wrapping paper.

    It was super easy to shape and get together.

    I am a very large person right now, so sturdiness was very important. I can sit on this ottoman without fearing for my dignity or worrying about breaking it. It’s nicely cushioned too.

    I’ve had myself and my dogs on the top coming in around 90kg without any issues yet!

    The build took literally minutes with it simply being a pop up with the walls and the lid to fix in place.

    Amazing and spacious storage. I have bought a second one since and it is just as good as the first. Very comfortable to sit on and can hold a lot of weight.
    The only downfall is the divider does not sit securely, this is the same for both ottomans. But overall it does the job and if a third one is needed I’ll know what I’ll be buying.

    Item was delivered early and was flat packed; it is extremely easy to assemble. The base has sides and ends attached and needs hard base putting in and centre wall panel sliding into place. Once assembled it is extremely sturdy and comfortable to sit on. We have decided to put item close to wall and place cushions against wall as back rest. Item seems to be of german origin and quality is very good – contradicts the low price really. We are so happy my partner is ordering another; for a different room.

    Love how sturdy the ottoman is and how it doesn’t feel like it is about to collapse in on itself. Only reason I haven’t given 5* is because the middle divider doesn’t stay in place very well but it’s not a deal breaker. The product does exactly what you need it to and looks amazing and is quite comfortable to sit on too!

    Bought this storage box as my daughters toy collection was getting out of control. Box turned up and was surprisingly heavy, it is a lot sturdier than we thought it would be. Super easy to assemble, it’s simply flat packed and there is a divider in the middle which slots in if you want to. The dark grey is a beautiful colour, really modern and the material is of good quality. We managed to fit in all of her toys with space left over so it does hold a fair amount. For the price, it is definitely worth it. Would 100% buy again!

    This footrest is of great quality being that its sturdy and great storage space, my only complaint would be that using it as a footrest after 20 minutes it became uncomfortable some extra padding would have been ideal, other than that it goes great with my sofa and serves a purpose

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersSo I bought this storage box because my current sofa has lost it’s ability to pop out it’s recliner. I also needed a storage solution to all my new PS5 games and controllers etc. This storage box was able to help me out in both circumstances.

    It’s a very easy storage box to assembly and only takes a minute to put together and it STAYS together. At first I thought it would just collapse again, but no, it’s very sturdy and well built.

    Using the storage box to rest your legs on is also excellent as I find it comfortable.

    For 20 I can’t argue and I’m very happy with my purchase and can easily recommend it.

    Great little stool for lounge foot rest. Ridiculously easy to set up. No tools needed it just unfolds etc. Not the strongest item but if you just need a simple foot rest it’s pefect. My wife used it for tv watching, the top lid padding is not really plush but ok. It’s not strong enough to stand on, and we don’t use the inside storage area but you could use it to store a small light throw or blanket. Good value, well made, suitable for use.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersDelivered promptly and ahead of the estimated delivery time. Purchased to match a sofa we’ve had 10 years … whilst not an identical match, the colour and texture of the fabric is close enough to work, and true to the picture (we purchased dark grey).

    Easy to assemble, took approx 30 seconds. Middle partition has a guide track to keep it in place, but will “pop out” if you overfill either storage compartment.

    One side of ours holds kids toys (action figures, cars, duplo etc) the other holds yarns, crochet hooks and blankets. Ample storage, more than we actually needed.

    In terms of comfort – we purchased this item with the idea of it having a “stay here through the day” place, and then moving it at night to use as a footstool once the kids are asleep, and as additional seating when we have guests. Sturdy, comfortable to sit on or use as footstool, and comfortably supporting my weight (12 stone).

    Would highly reccomend, and considering purchasing another one purely as an additional seating and storage option!

    Edit: second purchased!!! Original still in good working order, supported my big butt plus my 14 stone father as a seating option over xmas. Also recommended to friends!

    Very easy to assemble and came well before the expected delivery, took only a few days. Looks great and is stylish, only negative is the divider in the box to split into two sides is a little small so doesn’t slot into the grooves it should, instead falls over. However this does not impact how useful and sturdy they are, we bought 3

    The item arrived 12 days before it was due so that was a good start. Perfect size for the bottom of my son’s kingsize bed, perfect match for the headboard too, I really like the colour. I’m using it for storing bed clothes, not for sitting on but seems quite sturdy and was really easy to ‘assemble’, no ‘assembly’ required, the box was in 1 piece so just had to slot the middle board in. Really pleased with it so far 🙂

    If your looking at getting this I strongly recommend getting the same type that has a folding lid, it’s a lot stronger. This has a wobble to it and a feel that it just wouldn’t stand up to much, it’s been relegated to the conservatory. Great storage and nice feel to it but don’t think you can sit on it a lot.

  93. Sara Kay says:

     United Kingdom

    It’s very sturdy, great storage capacity and very comfy material.

    However, the internal divider is the most pointless part as it doesn’t actually lock in place. So expect to either find it has fallen over or bent out of shape.

    As an ottoman it works fine, just be aware that if like me you’re storing bedding and towels and want them to be seperate that they will not stay that way

  94. FredricAyz says:

    I bought one 2 years ago and need more storage space now so I got another. It’s a new listing now but the same brand, same dimensions etc. However the material is a really cheap version of the old one. The lid/seat is not as padded either. There has clearly been cost cutting at the expense of quality because the stitching even doesn’t look as good. It’s a real shame because I’m very happy with the original one.

    It feels fairly sturdy but I wouldn’t use it to sit on too often, the materials used aren’t durable enough. This is a storage unit.
    My main issue with this product is the smell. There was a note inside the packaging which I believe stated that with ventilation the smell fades in a few days. That is not the case. The smell is almost like tobacco, very strong and unpleasant. I have had the product for a month now and despite being next to a window that is often open, and having given the whole product a wipe with anti bacterial wipes, the smell is still there (albeit less strong than when it first arrived).
    For this reason I can’t recommend it.

    Edit: after several months the smell had not faded. I contacted Songmics directly who quickly offered a couple of solutions- I opted for a replacement item which I have now assembled and already smells a lot better than the original. So I am happy.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersArrived on time and well packaged. Easy to assemble. Seller warned about a slight smell for a couple of days but it seems to be going now. Placed in our hallway for boots and shoes and is certainly a lot neater and tidier than the old shoe rack. It’s sturdy enough to sit on whilst changing out of footwear. My only slight grouse is that the lid is heavy and not easy to put back on again (I have to push the front in gently so it fits into place. Can’t really comment on durability as we’ve only been using it for a couple of days – but it appears good quality and the colour is as portrayed. Overall, we are pleased.
