Best Ottomans & Benches: 6 Stylish Picks for Every Room

Welcome to our curated guide to the best ottomans and benches at Goldoma. Whether you need extra seating, clever storage, or a stylish accent piece, our handpicked selection offers something for every home. Read on for expert advice and our top picks.

How to Choose the Perfect Ottoman or Bench

Ottomans and benches are versatile pieces that can transform a room. Start by considering the primary function: Do you need extra seating for guests, a footrest for relaxation, or hidden storage to declutter? Multi-functional pieces, like storage benches, are great for small spaces. Also think about placement—an entryway bench can catch shoes and bags, while a bedroom bench adds a touch of luxury at the foot of the bed.

Size and Proportion

Measure your space before purchasing. A bench should be roughly two-thirds the length of the surface it accompanies, like a bed or dining table. For ottomans, consider the scale relative to your sofa—too small looks lost, too large can overwhelm. Leave at least 18 inches of walking space around the piece for easy movement.

Materials and Durability

Choose materials that suit your lifestyle. Velvet and chenille add a soft, luxurious feel but require more care, while linen is breathable and casual. For high-traffic areas, consider durable fabrics with stain resistance. Wood frames offer sturdiness, and metal accents add a modern touch. Always check the construction quality—solid wood and reinforced joints ensure longevity.

Style and Aesthetics

Your ottoman or bench should complement your existing décor. For a cohesive look, match the color or material to other furniture pieces. If you want a statement piece, go bold with pattern or color. Consider the overall style: mid-century modern, traditional, or contemporary—each has signature features. Don’t be afraid to mix textures, like pairing a velvet ottoman with a leather sofa.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care extends the life of your furniture. Vacuum upholstered pieces regularly to remove dust and debris. Spot clean spills immediately with a mild detergent. For fabric protection, consider applying a fabric protector spray. Wood legs should be dusted and occasionally polished. Always follow the manufacturer’s care instructions.
