Choosing the Best Ottoman Cover

With kids that can’t avoid spilling snacks and pets that love to tear things up, it’s no wonder that maintaining beautiful furniture is a struggle. Avoid the hassle of buying a replacement ottoman by getting an eye-catching cover. Ottoman covers protect your furniture from messes, pet dander, and dirty shoes. They can also spruce up your home decor by adding a new texture or color to your living room’s style. Here are some fantastic ottoman covers that we recommend.

Purchasing an Ottoman Cover

Keep these features in mind when buying an ottoman cover:

• Washer-Friendly: Ottomans often serve as footrests which means they will see a lot of dirt, debris, and stains. Consider a cover that can be thrown in the wash to create a fresh look. Especially for households with messy kids or shedding pets, a washable ottoman cover is necessary.
• Stretch: While you should make sure to purchase an ottoman cover that is close to your furniture’s dimension, a little bit of stretch in the fabric ensures that you have some wiggle room. Stretchy fabrics also create a tight fit that sits securely, rather than stiff fabric that can slip off with too much friction.
• Closure System: For indoor use, consider covers that have an elastic hem so that its tights around the base of your ottoman even when stretched. Outdoor ottoman covers should feature a drawstring or velcro closure so users can tighten it as necessary to handle windy and rainy weather.
