Are you able to sit on this item? Or used only for storage &amp; resting feet.

Yes you can sit on the item. I weigh about 190 and can sit on it. The unit is average in strength. If used for mainly resting tired feet should work out fine.

Never sit on it, use as footstool but I think it would be comfortable, not sure about weight. But I love it.

I have sat on this a few times to put shoes on but I wouldn't trust it to hold up if it's used as a daily sitting place for shoe putting on unless the person is very light, a slender woman or a child.

Absolutely 100%. It is comfortable to sit on, never mind putting your feet up to rest. We are extremely pleased with this purchase, especially for fit & finish, comfort, price, value & free shipping. " Do not hesitate go for it.

I think the capacity would be for one person of reasonable weight. I use it as a foot rest, mostly. However, my husband occasionally sits on it and he is about 185 pounds, no problems.

What a good question. I haven't considered it, because I'm not that size. I've put heavier things on it. No, I don't think I'd let my 115 lbs child sit on it, though. I really am pleased with this. It looks very nice, as in the photo. I was actually expecting something more cheaply made. I'd give it five stars. Megan is correct, it is rather high. I might plop a toddler here, temporarily, to help with shoes or similar. I think a person tall enough to sit here might be too heavy. (??)

I believe it is study to sit on. We don't use ours that way, but I do believe you could. The construction is so very simple, and I suppose that if the screws got loose, which I don't think they would, you could then use larger screws to replace. This is solid wood with a beautiful luster.

Yes you could sit on this but i have no idea how much weight it could hold. My guess would be about 200 lb.

It doesn't seem very sturdy to sit in, but it is great as a shelf/shoe rack. I love mine.

Anything can be sat on if you are brave enough, but I don't think it was ever intended to be used as a seat. Construction is solid for a hamper, but not designed for the stress of supporting a human. Top slats are about 1/4 inch thick, which won't hold up for long under repeated sitting. The depth to height ratio could make it a little unstable if sat on wrong. I think I would get a chair, bench or stool for your seating needs.

Absolutely NOT! This is made for you to use sitting down. It is very light and I have to anchor it to a board to use it comfortably. It slides too easily on the floor.

Yes. It is a very solid product and I do not see any issues with you sitting on it. If it gets a lot of use, you may have to tighten the screws (easy to do by hand) every once and a while.. but other than that you should be fine.

I would not recommend using this ottoman for seating. It's basically a coffee table with storage.

No. There is no place available on this unit for sitting. It is mostly for storage and prep space. I really love the unit for that purpose. It is very nice looking and solid. Putting it together is another story! I had to hire a handyman who took a lot of time building it. But, it was worth it - a really nice piece.

I think you can sit on it with no problem. Just FYI, this ha logo printed on one side.

You can sit it directly on floor, back supports need to be installed to prevent tipping and to ensure sturdiness.
