I'm really pleased with this ottoman. I have 2 toddlers, so the rounded shape and soft edges are great with the kids around, but it's stylish enough that it doesn't look like kids' furniture. It's a little shorter than I expected, about 2 inches lower than the seat of my couch, but I find the height to be very comfortable for a foot rest. The fabric is pretty durable so far (only a few weeks in), but we did scotch guard it to ensure it won't get stained. The wood frame construction and screwed-in metal legs are really sturdy and don't give way when you sit on it. The foam seems sturdy enough to wear well over time, too. Aesthetically, my only complaint is that the lining on the bottom isn't very taut, so it sags a bit. The lining is zippered so the legs can ship inside the main body of the ottoman, which means it can't be pulled as tightly as it might be otherwise. I'm pleased with what we got. It's exactly the size and shape that we wanted, and good quality for the price.
