Good, Better, Best: Ottoman Storage Cubes

It's hard to underestimate the utility of a good storage ottoman: You can put up your feet, use it as an extra seat, and store your junk inside when guests appear. I particularly like the cute cube-shaped varieties, since they also don't take up much room. Here are three great storage ottomans to suit your budget.

Good: The hip, mod pattern on this Urban Outfitters Teardrop Storage Ottoman (on sale for $39.99) distracts from its utilitarian double-life. The padded lid slides off for storage.

Two even better storage ottomans, so read more

Better: This very versatile Crate and Barrel Nomad Storage Cube ($379) goes a step further, with a lid that flips over to serve as a drink tray. As if that weren't enough, the microfiber footstool also has wheels.

Best: Add a tray on top, and this edgy, metal-studded Each Leather Storage Cube ($619) is sturdy enough to serve as a table, too. Available in four colors; I particularly love the bright begonia shade.

      The only one I like is the Crate and Barrel leather one. The other's are too eclectic looking for my taste.

      The Crate and Barrel one is the one that makes the most sense to me... the rest are too toy-like.

      I am in love with the TARGET versions. They are only around $70 or so and you can put three together for more of a coffee table.

      I've seen the Target one as well, it's cute - but the one I looked at had a bunch of scratches on the "leather" so I would think that it scraches easy

      My grandmother gave me a pair of these only they were a fantastic dark chocolate color made out of woven thick straw. I can put them together as a coffee table or have them apart as end tables. Plus they can hold a medium sized blanket. I love them!

      I love the Crate & Barrel one..but the price makes me

      So I would have to do with the Urban one..But it's true I got one at Target for like $10.00 after it went on sale from the Valentine's day clearance..It's great because no one really knows that it's storage..fits nicely in small spaces too

      I used to work at a furniture store that sold a version of the Crate and Barrel one. We sold SO MANY of these. People love them and usually came back to buy more. My parents have 2 in their living room and they are perfect as a coffee table.

      I'm weirdly not a fan of any of them, and i like ottomans in general.

      The Urban Outfitters cube is so cheap and adorable! I think I'm going to need to order one for my new apartment!

      I like the leather one, but I bought one from Target last year and I love it!

      i want an ottoman really badly. it'd be great to put stuff for guests in it like an extra comforter (which i can also use for movies!), towels etc. since my sofa is a sofa-bed.
