I purchased this ottoman to go with our couch in the basement. It has nice storage for some blankets and the tray is also convenient.  I also like the quality as a lot of cheaper ottomans are made with fabric-covered cardboard but not this one - nice and sturdy. I would consider purchasing another as there's not a lot of room for two people to rest their feet on one ottoman alone. But all in all, I'm very happy with it.
