The ottoman assembly includes a first member having a first end and a second end. The first end being connected to the base member. A second member has a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion being pivotally connected to the second end of the first member. A third member includes a first end section and a second end section. The first end section is pivotally connected to the second end portion of the second member. A connector member operatively connects the first end of the first member to the base member. The connector member being shiftable along the adjustment axis of the base member to selectively deploy the ottoman assembly.
