Aldi describes the stool as a 'useful addition to your room' with an 'attractive design'. It features a hidden tray underneath with a removable top, and can be used as extra seating or a coffee table.
The stool is part of a collection with the same velvet blue design, with Aldi's Velvet Storage Ottoman priced at £20 also recieving rave reviews from shoppers online. Currently in the sale down from £65 to £50, the stool has an average rating of 3.6 out of 5 from shoppers.
Among the reviews, one shopper said: "I would highly recommend this stool. It’s a great colour and most importantly for me is extremely spacious. I have used it for toy storage and it is perfect for tidying up at the end of the day. The dual feature of the top is also really useful."
A second review read: "Have used this as a stool, coffee table and storage for my magazines."
A third shopper said: "Bought this last year, love the storage and the tray is so useful. We put castors in place of legs, so easy to fit and move about."
However, not every shopper was convinced with the colour of the item. Some claimed to have ordered a grey stool but the colour came in navy instead.
One shopper said: "Lovely stool, tray feature excellent. My only issue it's navy blue and I assumed grey from picture so doesn't fit my colour scheme so disappointed there."
Although, not every shopper was unhappy with the navy colour. One happy shopper added: "The stool is clearly grey online with no other colour options so I was surprised to find a navy blue stool when I opened the box! This was actually better for our decor and the colour I would have chosen if there'd been an option. Easy to attach legs and so far seems sturdy enough. The convertible design is exactly what we were looking for."
