What is a pouf’s purpose?
I think you mean – what isn’t a poufs’ purpose? They are solid yet still soft, so many people use them as a footstool. On the other hand, some people will place pouf ottomans in the living room and use them as extra seating. Or, some say they even make a great addition as an eye-catching tabletop.
Is a pouf comfortable to sit on?
Personally, I think poufs are pretty much an oversized throw pillow with a bit more structure. They don’t have a backing, so some people don’t think they make great comfortable seating. However, they are solid enough to sit upright on and feel secure. Plus, they’re low enough to the ground that you can rest your feet on the floor, putting all your weight into the pouf.
What is the best thing to stuff a pouf with?
One thing I love about doing a DIY piece is that you can stuff it with pretty much anything. And yes, I just said pretty much anything.
Firstly, polyether flakes (foam rubber) is a popular material to put inside the outer casing. Basically, this material is shredded residual polyether foam.
Secondly, you can use materials laying around your house – such as scrunched up newspapers or old clothes. When deciding which to use, it really depends on how firm you want your seat to be.
Thirdly, I know some people who will just put cotton stuffing inside of their cotton poufs. Or a comfy bean bag chair…who will ever know!?
Are poufs worth it?
Yes – they are SO worth it! Not only are they extremely versatile pieces of furniture, they look great in any room of the house. For example, you could place one in the kids’ room or use one as a floor cushion in a small space where you don’t have room for large furniture. Additionally, they typically have removable covers that are machine-washable, so they’re easy to clean!
How do I choose a pouf?
There are a few things to think about when deciding on a piece of furniture to put in your space. You want to think about the interior design style that you’re going for, as well as the color scheme. If you have kids or pets, you may want to find a piece of furniture that has a removable cover as we mentioned previously.
So, on the best poufs…
Well, let’s take a look at the best one-of-a-kind poufs for your home!

Best Square Pouf: Hand-Braided Jute
Filled with Styrofoam beads, this hand-braided pouf would look great in any living room. Personally, I love the warm, natural color scheme of this piece. Plus, Pottery Barn is an extremely reputable brand for home decor.
For a Contrasting Pouf: Signature Design by Ashley Sweed
With braided cotton and a denim cover, this multicolored piece can be used as a variety of different things. Personally, I would use it as a floor pillow in the living room. However, it is spot-clean only, so if you’re thinking about putting it in the playroom, I would reconsider.
Best Bohemian Style: Contemporary Pouf
This upholstery features a handcrafted braided design and is just simply beautiful. It’s made of a mixture of hemp, wool, and cotton which adds to its handwoven look. It almost looks as though the braided pieces on the side are tassels. Plus, it has removable covers with safety zippers!

Best Knit Pouf: Threshold Cloverly Chunky
This round knit pouf is sure to provide a laid-back appeal to your indoor space. Moreover, its solid hue allows it to blend in with any existing color scheme. Plus, it’s extremely lightweight and can be moved around easily!
Best Boho Pouf: Desert Stream
Made from durable and soft recycled polyester, this piece is perfect for extra seating or a makeshift table. It is pre-filled, so the cover is not removable. Plus, I love the marled, earthy colors that make it super warm and inviting.
