B&M is offering a furniture piece that's not only crafted to lend any space a 'luxurious' appearance, but has also had its price slashed. At first glance, it could easily be confused with more expensive, comparable options found elsewhere on the high street.

B&M remains a go-to destination for shoppers throughout the UK. The retailer stocks an extensive array of products beneath one roof at budget-friendly prices. It frequently refreshes its homeware collection with fresh additions or cuts costs, with a recent instance being its grey Lara Velvet Storage Footstool.

The store claims the footstool can "give your home the look of luxury", noting it is "perfect for popping your feet up and getting cosy". The complete product description states: "With its velvet finish and stylish metal legs, add an elegance to your living space while de-cluttering and storing essentials in the storage compartment."

The footstool is available in grey and measures 36cm in width, 36cm in depth and 42cm in height. Previously priced at 15, it's now been discounted to 10, reports the Liverpool Echo. Customers can explore additional furniture online, or purchase in-store at B&M.

The footstool bears resemblance to a 49 version at Dunelm and a 50 'lookalike' choice at Next. Dunelm's Avery Velvet Storage Footstool similarly boasts velvet upholstery, black metal legs and includes a concealed storage section within.

Dunelm states: "Add a touch of elegance and functionality to your home with the Avery Velvet Storage Footstool. Upholstered in soft velvet, this versatile piece combines comfort with clever design.

"The removable wooden lid flips over to create a handy tray, while the hidden storage inside is perfect for tidying away everyday essentials. Its sleek, round shape and black metal legs bring a modern edge to any room, making it ideal for living spaces that need both style and practicality."

Thus far, based on three customer reviews, the 49 footstool has achieved a perfect five-star rating. One buyer commented: "Beautiful little footstool, just what I wanted for my bedroom. Takes up very little room, handy storage inside. Very pleased with the quality and look."

Over at Next, another comparable choice is the Soft Velvet Mid Grey Matson Storage Stool priced at 50. Similar to the B&M 10 alternative, the 50 stool features a concealed storage compartment, black metal legs and grey velvet upholstery.

Next describes it: "This storage stool is ideal for extra storage. The storage element makes this design highly functional, whilst the hairpin leg provides a mid-century yet contemporary aesthetic. This stool is perfect for storing away household items and is ideal for putting your feet up or as additional seating for guests."
