My husband needed this for his office to"hide" the work when company came over.  It is exactly what we were looking for.  The quality is great and the color is a nice espresso brown that matched the furniture already there.  The hinges are great and the lid stays open on it's own.  The top surface is very comfortable to sit on and the height is perfect for putting your feet up and leaning back in a chair.  Very sturdy and great price.  Would definitely recommend this item.  Very easy to take care of and move around if needed.
