What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly celebrate the Jonathan Adler Kidney Ottoman as a stunning, sculptural statement piece that instantly elevates any living space. Reviewers frequently use terms like "chic," "glamorous," and "the perfect focal point" to describe its unique, asymmetrical shape and luxurious upholstery, often noting that the piece functions more as functional art than a mere footrest. The sentiment is strongly driven by aesthetics; buyers are deeply satisfied with the ottoman's ability to inject personality and high-end design into their homes, confirming its status as a signature designer item. The perceived quality is consistently high, with customers praising the solid construction, meticulous stitching, and rich, durable fabrics, confirming that the product feels substantial and well-made, meeting the expectations associated with the Jonathan Adler brand. The primary area of friction, and the only factor slightly tempering the enthusiasm, is the high price point. While buyers are typically aware they are paying a premium for designer furniture, the cost leads some to question the functional value relative to the investment. However, for those prioritizing unparalleled style and brand cachet, the emotional value derived from owning this iconic piece far outweighs the monetary cost concerns, resulting in an overall highly positive and enthusiastic reception.
Know before you buy
The ottoman measures 27 inches wide, 18 inches deep, and 16 inches high. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for use as a footrest or occasional seating in smaller living areas.
To keep the shearling in top condition, we recommend professional fur cleaning. For minor spills, you can spot clean the area carefully with a gentle, appropriate cleaner.
The piece weighs 16.3 pounds, which provides a sturdy, grounded feel while remaining light enough to move around your space as needed.
The polished, angled brass legs are designed to sit securely on most flat surfaces, including hardwood, tile, and low-pile rugs. If you are placing it on delicate flooring, you may want to add felt pads to the base of the legs.
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the kidney-shaped silhouette allows the ottoman to tuck neatly against the curve of a sofa or chair, creating a more ergonomic and space-efficient flow in your seating arrangement.
