It’s completely fine—not good quality by any stretch of the imagination, but it gets the job done. It’s more like woven tissue paper than straw, so I keep it covered with a blanket. But I needed a small storage bench to keep towels in and it works great for that. The storage is spacious inside and nicely lined. Might end up doing something to the outside, who knows. It arrived fully assembled and wasn’t heavy. The price is a bit much for what you get, but I searched for a while and couldn’t find anything better.
