This ottoman isn’t quite as ivory-colored as pictured, it’s more beige. Fortunately it still works within the space but I thought it would be whiter. Material is rough and scratchy, there’s already a small pull in the fabric at the bottom corner (we have pets). But it holds up well to sitting and is large enough to set a tray upon it without falling. I appreciate how sturdy it is, just wish the color was brighter and it was a bit softer.
