Upholstered Velvet Gold Effect Pouffe Review

What Are You Buying?

1. Beautiful Velvet Pouffe

Pouffes are an easy way to cosy up the living room, and the SO’HOME round pouffe does a great job of that. It is upholstered in a soft velvety fabric that’s not only beautiful to look at, but also feels good to the touch.

So whether you plan to use it as a chair or just a deco piece to fill up a corner of the room, it’s perfect for either task.

A gold-finished frame at the bottom of the pouffe compliments the velvet upholstery, resulting in a balanced look that blends well in any type of home decor. Whether you have a modern, eclectic, Victorian or traditional living room, the SO’HOME pouffe will look good in any of them.

2. Multipurpose Pouffe

One of the things we love about pouffes is that they are more than pretty pieces of furniture to look at. They are also highly practical additions to the living room.

The SO’HOME pouffe can function as a wide range of things depending on where you position it and what you use it for.

It works great as a footrest, you can get a couple of them to provide additional sitting space in the living room, and the pouffe can also work as a soft tabletop, coffee table or side table.

You can also get the SO’HOME pouffe purely as a piece of decor. Use it to bring the room together, to add a splash of colour or to balance out hard surfaces with its velvety texture.

The SO’HOME pouffe doesn’t just belong to the living room; it’s useful in other spaces as well. It’s an ideal low profile stool for your dressing table, you can position it at the entryway to serve as a chair, have it as part of your balcony or porch lounge or use it as a bedroom ‘bench’.

The pouffe is fairly compact at 42cm wide and 43cm high, so it can easily fit in most spaces even where there isn’t much room.

3. Free Swatch Service

Sometimes, the colour you see on your phone or computer screen is not quite the same colour you see in real life. This can be a big problem when buying furniture. The item you get may not match your other furniture the way you envisioned.

To avoid this issue, La Redoute offers a free swatch service. You can receive a swatch for one of their pouffe colours, which include blue, pink, yellow, black and green. This lets you see the actual colour of the pouffe you want before you order it.

All you need to do is email La Redoute with the required details and they will send you the swatches within five working days.

How Easy Is It To Assemble/Use?

The SO’HOME pouffe doesn’t need any assembly. You can enjoy it as soon as it’s delivered. It’s also light, weighing only 4.8kg. So you should be able to easily bring it inside and set it up wherever you want on your own.

What Accessories Are Included?

The SO’HOME pouffe doesn’t come with any accessories nor do you need to buy any to use it.

Pros

• Beautiful and stylish pouffe.
• Soft velvet texture.
• Multipurpose.
• Fits in small spaces.

Conclusion

The SO’HOME pouffe is an easy way to style up your living space while also adding a practical piece of furniture. We particularly love the flexibility of this pouffe. It’s perfect as a stool, side table, decor piece, coffee table or whatever else you want to turn it into.
