I love this foot stool.  I'm 5'2" and my feet don't 
 rest firmly on the floor when sitting on our new love seat.  This foot stool is the perfect height for me to sit in comfort. The stool is nicely made and looks like leather.  The only problem is my small dog has also claimed ownership.  I bought a dog bed on the same order and he seems to think that the stool was a package deal.  lol  He loves to stand on it and has now learned it is in fact big enough for him to lay on.  :) I don't mind sharing.
