Even though I have a small living room, I have long appreciated the comfort a footstool provides when relaxing in the evening. Having somewhere to *literally* put your feet up after a long day is undeniably a wonderful feeling.
But where I have chosen a storage footstool (eg Nexts Casual Bockle Oyster Natural Ashton Upholstered Storage Stool, £165) to justify the square inches it takes up on my floor, I’m a big fan of B&M’s space-saving option. The B&M Inflatable Footstool, as you might have guessed, inflates and deflates – so you can easily store it when not in use.
The footstool can be inflated by mouth, or I would imagine a small pump would do the job. It has a plastic interior and a woven material cover for a stylish finish.
It is available in a stylish neutral checkerboard print and bold zebra and leopard print footstools. Surprisingly, it’s the animal prints I’ve seen online, but a Self-confessed leopard print obsessionI am very happy with this.
In a video that has received over 15,000 likes, a TikTok user @nekopixie Snapped up a zebra print footstool for her home. The post went viral, with commenters eager to snap one for themselves.
