This ottoman is perfect for what we needed. We had bought a new couch and thought we could get away without one, but then we noticed we were constantly looking for something to put our feet up on. It is on the smaller size, which is perfect for our living room. It is also light, so it makes it easy to move when I clear an area to exercise. The brown color was perfect to match our new couch fabric. All in all I am very pleased with our purchase! :)
