Save or Splurge? We check out two comfy pouffe options

A pouffe is a piece of furniture that earns its keep. It's not only an extra seat but it's also somewhere to put your feet up 

A handy little pouffe is the must-have in occasional furniture, not only as extra seating for kiddies to sit at a coffee table for board games and colouring competitions, but somewhere to put your feet up.

They also earn their keep as a place to put a tray if side tables are in short supply, with some pouffes even having storage for everything from small toys to newspapers and magazines.
