ABSTRACT:
An ottoman convertible to a seating unit includes: a body; a seat associated with the body; and a lid pivotally attached to the body, the lid having an underside. The lid is movable between a closed position, in which the lid overlies the body, the seat is beneath the lid, and the underside of the lid faces generally downwardly, and an open position, in which the lid is generally upright and located above a rear portion of the body, the underside of the lid faces generally forwardly and forms the backrest of a seating unit and the seat is accessible for a seated occupant. The seat is inclined from rear to front. Typically, movement of the lid and the seat (if any) is controlled by one or more mechanisms that couple the seat and the lid.
