Very nice size at 16” high, and very sturdy footstool.  Comfortable tufted top to sit on if an extra seat is needed too! The one issue I have is that the color is called “red paisley”, yet the fabric doesn’t have any paisley shapes on it that I can see, and there’s very little red color in the design.  The background color is a pale aqua or robin’s egg blue.  The pattern is a floral design and includes grass green, taupe, cream, gold, marine blue, and some red.  Though colors are not as expected, it’s very pretty,,p so though it doesn’t exactly match my current furniture I won’t return it.  Can’t  part with it!
