If you want an ottoman that has a cushy top this is not it. That being said it's fine for putting your feet on but not that comfortable to sit on. You can set a tray of food ect. on it without it being wobbly. The storage inside is great. I was able to fit two queen size blankets and a set of sheets for my sofa sleeper with a little room leftover. I got the dark blue color that looks exactly like the online picture. There were a few loose threads that were easily cut off.
