We have a perpetual problem of having various items scattered on the floor throughout our residence, and this Upholstered Storage Bench has saved the day. The shipping of the ottoman was flawless; it arrived on time with no damage to the packaging or product. Also, it only takes two minutes to apply the legs to the ottoman, so it's practically ready to use minutes after it gets removed from its wrapping.As for the ottoman itself, the storage space offers plenty of room to store various items. However, it's not a piece of furniture that looks bulky or odd in any room. It would work well in a living room, bedroom, office, etc. Another nice feature of the ottoman is that the lid stays open until the user closes it. No need to worry about it slamming loudly or breaking any fingers, which is a plus if you have children (or loud/careless/clumsy cohabitants).In conclusion, the ottoman fully met the expectations we had when we ordered it, and we would recommend it to any potential buyers.
