Hello, I was wondering if this can be used for sitting. I would like to have it in my living room. Any comments on that? Thank you!

Absolutely, but it does not have a back so unless its against a wall it may become uncomfortable. I have it in my bedroom at the end of the bed and I sit on it all the time.

Yes, you can definitely sit on it. It is quite sturdy and of excellent quality. It is a beautiful ottoman, and very purposeful for storage, as well as seating. I only wish it came in tan or brown---I would buy it again in one of those colors. I absolutely love it!

Yes its great for sitting. Right height and surprisingly comfortable. Really a great buy. I got them for trade shows and many many people sat on them and they kept up well. The storage is really nice too. I wouldn't hesitate to get one for my home. Hope this helps- ag

Definitely. Mine is at the end of the bed and I sit on it often. It is sturdy and offers lots of storage space too.

It could, although it sits at coffee table height. It was enough cushion that it would be comfortable.

Yes definitely. My daughter has one in her room and when she has friends over they always use it to sit on and watch tv.

yes, you can use it to sit on.... I am a large person and I sit on mine occasionally to watch TV... wouldn't want to use it all the time.. but for extra people it is great !!!!!

Hi there,It's actually comfortable for short periods. I'm using it for my dining table and I have two of them. For a quick meal or short duration, I like them. You can't really lean back in it, though. Therefore, as an accent chair or lightly used seating, it's good. Hope this helps.

Hard to answer without knowing the height of the bed and how you would use in said bed. I use it in my living room directly in front of my easy chair sliding it back over my legs to eat or use a laptop or whatever. I had to adjust the legs to reach just the height that I felt comfortable for its use. It slides easily on my floor so no problem with that, but all these things are variables depending on your own location and use. I can say that if you are looking for the sturdy long type of hospital table that wheels over a bed for that type of use, this is not it. This one is smallish and less sturdy but my apt. is small and for me this does the trick. I don't think it would serve well as over the bed type table. Better off looking for the more substantial hospital type wheeled table.

Due to the size and thickness of the unit it may not be comfortable to sit in bed and lean on it while its in use. Sit in a chair is the best position to use in my opionon. Good luck

I used it to sit on sometimes. I don't think it is high enough to use around a table though.

It's not durable enough for sitting... It can hold some weight but I wouldn't recommend it. It is great for storing winter/summer bedding which is what I use mine for.

We have never actually used this piece of furniture ourselves as we bought it for a guest bed room in our winter home in Florida. Our guests seem to enjoy it as I have seen them sitting in it. It is not very big and is very firm so I don't think it would be suitable for sleeping. Also it would not be comfortable for a large person. It's just the right size for the corner of the bedroom where it was placed and so far we have been happy with the purchase. Hope this helps.

Not sure we use it for seating in our living room. The cushion does flatten out when you sit on it but it returns to shape after. Hope that helps.

It's possible. I didn't find that to be comfortable. But I had people at work come over and sit on it when I wasn't using it----just long enough to talk to me about the next client or something.

You might be able to sit it on something if you have a stand that left a gap for the cord at the bottom. There are many things you could do if you wanted it to just sit it somewhere. It's really simple to hang and looks great.

I use mine in my bedroom with a small coffee table in front. I sit on it to have wine with my husband when we are stealing a moment away from the kids, or I put my feet up lying across it to read. Its firm but comfy.

I haven't truly tested its capabilities. My 4 & 8 year old were on it at the same time with no issues. I have a large tray on it and use it as a coffee table so there's not much weight put on it. It's a lovely piece and I always get complements on it. I highly recommend this as a coffee table, but not as a peice of furniture to be sat on a regular basis. Sorry I can't be more help.

I do not feel it is comfortable and would not be the best option for how you would use it. We have them in a room we do not use often and people do not sit in often. We got them more for decor. They look great but not that comfortable.

yes, you can use it lying down or sitting. just make sure it sits on a flat surface.

Hello! I bought this podium desk with the intention of standing in front of it and using my laptop. It has been a Godsend because my hips (arthritis) no longer bother me because I am not sitting! Never used while sitting on couch--you can adjust the height to use there if you wish, I would think. Depends on how tall you are and height of couch. Hope this helps you somewhat! I LOVE this desk!! Good day! Patty

I would say no. I have never tried it but it is not very strong and I'm sure would not withstand sitting on it. It is very nice though.
