Ottomans, poufs and footstools
Ottomans, poufs and footstools for the living room and bedroom, from AED 1,020, in round, square and bench designs in boucle, velvet and fabric.
Desqo is a UAE furniture brand. Every ottoman and pouf is made to order in our Sharjah workshop, so the size, height and fabric can be matched to your sofa, and our team delivers it free across the UAE.
Buying guide
A pouf is soft and low, usually round, and easy to move around. An ottoman is larger and firmer, often on legs, and some open up for storage. A footstool is a small ottoman made for resting your feet. All three work as an extra seat when guests come.
| What it’s for | Height and size |
|---|---|
| Footrest | Level with the sofa seat or 2–5 cm lower, usually 35–45 cm |
| Extra seat | 40–45 cm tall |
| Instead of a coffee table | About two-thirds the length of the sofa, with a firm top |
| End of the bed | The width of the bed, or a little narrower |
Leave 35–45 cm between the sofa and the ottoman so you can reach it and still walk past. Any of our designs can be made in the size you need.
Round poufs have no corners, so they are easy to walk around and suit small rooms. See our round poufs & ottomans. Square ottomans sit neatly in front of a sofa or between two armchairs. A long bench ottoman works at the end of a bed or under a window.
Boucle has a soft, looped texture that feels warm and looks relaxed. Velvet is smooth and rich. A woven fabric is the easiest to live with in a busy family room. Every design can be made in the fabric and colour you choose.
Choose an ottoman with a firm, flat top and put a tray on it for cups and remotes. Keep it 2–5 cm lower than the sofa seat so it doubles as a footrest.
Our ottomans and poufs start from AED 1,020 and go up to AED 2,499, depending on the size and fabric. Every piece comes with a 2-year warranty, and you can pay in 4 interest-free instalments with Tabby.
