I love this thing. I bought it in teal and it looks super cute in my living room -- it matches a teal lamp and wall hanging. It is also comfy to sit on. My stepson keeps plopping down on it (rather than the couch or rocking chair) when he's playing video games. Best of all, it is a great storage piece. I'm using it to hold office supplies, wireless mouse, etc., for when I want to bring my laptop into the living room to work, rather than work in the office. Cute and classy, and highly recommended!
