Can you sit on this ottoman? I am planning on keeping it so that people can sit while wearing shoes

I haven't sat on it. I keep my grandsons' toys in it. I'm not sure if it would be strong enough to be sat on. Someone that doesn't weight much would do ok, but anyone that is heavy, I wouldn't suggest it.

While it is sturdy to prop your feet on if the person is not too heavy I would say yes. We were very pleased with this ottoman and I've sat on it and if you keep stuff inside it will make it even sturdier.

Yes, you can definitely sit on it. We have 3 of them and they pull double duty in our house when we have company - a place to hide our kids' many toys, and extra seating!

I wouldn't sit on it due to the fact you simply unfold and place a cardboard slat in the middle to secure structure.....

I own 4 of them and sit on them often. I would just make sure that they are filled. I don't know how it would hold up half empty.

I have sat on mine but very carefully. I knew that it was not super sturdy so I was careful. Your guests may not know and my end up on the flow. I under mine as a bench for my dogs so they can see out the window. And it is great for storing extra blankets. I thought there was a weight limit for sitting listed on the item when I purchased.

yes you can sit on it, but I would not have anyone over 175 lbs plus if use it on a daily basis the sides will break down in a year or so.

You can use it ,but mostly for light shoes.Also if you size 11,you might end up taking once row out.Im size 10,and most of the rack i use for my daughters shoes.mine are usually on the bottom)))

We don't have an ottoman but we love the chair and we have the couch too. They are great and an ottoman would be a nice addition.

I would not recommend any adult sitting on this ottoman. We did have to repair some parts underneath when the wheels collapsed.I like the idea but it is not built for heavy weight.

I would say "Yes" although I have not used it barefoot. You can also place fleece or some comfortable/soft fabric on the top and put your feet on the fabric. The footrest is large enough that fabric with some weight would stay put on it.

Yes you can put shoes on the floor, but I would not buy this product again. Not made very well. When putting this together the wood split and it wobbles from left to right. Look for something that uses a better quality of wood.

I would have to say it would depend on how long you plan on having people in the chair??? Once it gets broken in, it would be loose enough to sit in for long periods of time. I only use it for small bursts in a show I perform in. You would probably want something built for comfort more than this. I can't see life casting someones face in this.

You could use it as a shoe shelf, but in my opinion that would be overkill. This unit looks beautiful lined with books and knick-knacks. Used for shoes would downgrade the innate beauty of the unit. Find something else!

My answer is probably too late, but the ottoman does have a storage space. It is accessed from the BOTTOM, however, so you have to tip the ottoman on its side to get in & out. It's ok for cushions but nothing heavy.

This bench can be used in a some dressing room and next to the shoe rack to sit and tie laces. Only one person can sit on it at max..

My husband is 200 lbs and sits on it to put on his shoes. It seems to be pretty sturdy. I hope this helps.

Yes, it is fine for sitting briefly to tie shoes. The top is cushiony enough that it is not uncomfortable for an average size adult (or child). We love ours and use it all the time for the kids shoes and socks in the foyer.

No, I would strictly use it to rest my feet or sit on. Does not open up for storage and I don't think it would support much weight if you stood on it.

Absolutely - I'm over 80lbs and I sit on it! My Pit enjoys laying on it as well. I've very please with this ottoman, I almost paid $250.00 for the ottoman that came with the sofa I purchased. This one matches perfectly and was a great price.

I guess you could but I wouldn't recommend it. I have not used it as seating.

My wife and I love this Ottoman. I sit on it all the time with no issue and I am 6'3", 200 lbs.

It's enough to sit, but not big enough to kind of bundle up with your feet up or anything like that. I mean you can, but it's too tight a fit in my opinion. I think it's perfect for kids or really petite people. I'm 5'5" and on the heavier side. (For reference) like I said, it's comfortable if all you want to do is sit normally with your feet on the ground or up on an ottoman or something. But I'm sure someone shorter and slimmer than me could find it comfier.
