How do you want to use your ottoman?

The ideal pouf shape depends on its intended use, says Stark. “Generally, poufs come in round or square shapes, but they can also be found in other shapes like cylindrical or oval,” she says. “A round pouf can be great for use as a footrest or extra seating, while a square pouf can prove more stability and can also double as a small table.” Ultimately the shape should complement the overall design, she advises.

Poufs come in a few different shapes, namely cubes, cylinders, and balls. This shape doesn’t just affect the way a pouf looks—it also affects the way it can function. Take cube-shaped and cylinder-shaped poufs, for example. Since these kinds of poufs are topped with flat surfaces, they can act as seats, footrests, and side tables. Ball-shaped poufs, on the other hand, are best as seats and footrests. The pouf is covered in a faux fur polyester blend and has a foam fill for extra support.
