This was a great purchase and such a great addition to our living room! 

1) The assembly was very quick and easy (I didn't even need my husband's help at all)! Just screwed on the four legs by hand within 5 mins (or less)

2) It's flat and firm enough that we can put a coaster with a drink on it without having to worry about it tipping over or anything

3) I love the colour we chose to go with our gray-coloured sectional couch; the contrasting gray shades gave the room a bit of "umphh" 

4) For a square storage ottoman that's not too big but also not too small, the price was very reasonable and affordable

5) I haven't put anything in the storage compartment just yet, but know that I will be! It's got a spacious storage which will fit my extra pillows and blankets

Overall, highly recommend this ottoman! It's awesome quality for a great price and I didn't have to wait too long for it to get delivered (1 week).
