I use this bench in my living room to hold our families blankets. It is such a nice little bench, I'd say you can fit around 6-8 blankets inside depending on the size and thickness of each blanket. We like nice and soft ones if that tells you anything. Only thing I would change about the bench, is the flimsy board you place in the bottom of the bench to hold items inside. It doesn't always stay in, and the blankets sometimes fall out the bottom.
