ABSTRACT:
A footstool is provided having outer pockets for storage of magazines, newspapers or the like. Additional storage space is available when the cushion is removed to expose an internal compartment having a shelf. The cushion includes a bottom pocket with a stiffener therein. The cushion can be removed and inverted into a bottom-up posture to provide a rigid writing or work surface. The stiffener can be removed from the cushion pocket and placed on the frame to function as a work table whereby the cushion may be used either as a pillow or simply placed atop the stiffener for use as a footstool.
