The store's product description is spot on.  A few quick points: The lid stays up on its own, which is handy for reaching in and getting what you need.  Nearly the entire inside is storage.  The hinges are almost completely hidden, so there isn't much concern of snagging your pants or a child scratching themselves while playing.  Speaking of children, my two-year old loves to climb and jump off of it, which speaks to the ottoman's sturdiness and durability.

The only negative I have concerns the ottoman's overall size.  The store accurately describes the size, but having the measurements and having the actual ottoman are very different.  The ottoman is too small for my space, relative to my other furniture.  I would love the same ottoman if it was a touch taller, say 3-4".  I may try and replace the feet with a set that is closer in size to those found on my couch.

Pros: Price, storage capacity, hidden hinges, self-supporting lid, sturdiness
Cons: Overall size, particularly the height
