Pouffe with drawer for corridor

Poufik in the hallway - it is more than just an interesting piece of furniture to decorate the space. If earlier it only performed the function of a place for a short rest, then modern models are significantly different. You can order a poufik with a drawer or shelves to keep inside shoes or other small things that may be needed here. Which option to choose from the variety of models?

Choosing a pouf for the corridor: the main criteria
Pouffe with a drawer for storage - this is the most practical option for most hallways and corridors. An extra place where you could hide shoes or miscellaneous trifles will not hurt anyone! But especially important this criterion will be for small corridors, which can not be cluttered. The presence of a drawer allows you to put your shoes away so that they do not take up space, but are always at hand.

If you are looking for a pouf with a storage compartment, consider the following basic criteria:

Material. The basis of the furniture can be made of MDF, chipboard. This is the most practical option. In addition, it will cost less than natural wood. Note that chipboard requires special conditions of use. It is "afraid" of moisture. Therefore, make sure that in the fall and winter period near him did not stand shoes with which water runs off. Otherwise, over time, this will damage the base of the product.

Design. You can choose among many options, which are conditionally divided into two groups - open and closed. Pouf box for things is suitable for storing accessories and various trifles. And pouf with a drawer choose if you want to keep shoes in it.

Upholstery. Pouffe in the corridor with a drawer has an upper soft part. It can be made of knitwear, mirovelure, corduroy or flock, artificial suede, "oxford". Choosing a product, give preference to dense materials, resistant to wear and tear. The surface should be easy to clean from dirt.

Filler. It is better if the soft part of the pouf will be made of hollofiber, polypropylene, polystyrene foam. They do not absorb moisture and odors, soft enough and at the same time dense, do not deform.

As for the design, the pouf in the hallway with a drawer should correspond to the general style of the interior. If you have not found a suitable option in the catalogs, order individual production. Factory "MaxiMebel" offers just this way, making custom-made furniture for the hallway. The pouf can also be ordered according to your own measurements and under your own vision of its design.

Recommendations for choosing a pouf in the corridor
First of all, decide exactly where the pouf will stand. Then take measurements, determining what exactly the dimensions of the furniture will be acceptable to you. The legs or corners of the pouf should not protrude beyond the boundaries of the niche, if it will stand there. In other cases, the furniture should not take up most of the corridor. Otherwise, there is a risk that it will interfere with the passage.

In addition to dimensions and materials of manufacture, take into account other factors. First of all, it is a feature of the design. Pouf round with a drawer is suitable if there is room for it in the corridor or hallway, because it will not be possible to put it close to the wall. Pouf on legs with a drawer will simplify cleaning, it is easier to move it. But make sure that the legs do not protrude much beyond the boundaries of the body. If the corridor is small, there is a great risk of constantly hitting these legs. Rectangular pouffe with a drawer requires more space, but also allows you to store more things. Its advantage is the possibility of installation close to the wall.

Pay attention to the fittings. Poufs, designed to store things, have hinges on which the doors are held, or a pull-out mechanism. Such elements should be resistant to wear and tear.

Also remember that the color of the pouf is also important. Light colors visually expand the space, dark - on the contrary. But if the corridor is made in light colors, then a dark poufik will be an excellent accent. Also, dark furniture is considered more practical - it is not so noticeable contaminants.

If there are small children in the house, it is better to avoid furniture with sharp corners. This will make the space safe for the child, who due to age and curiosity can accidentally hit the corner.
