This item was just what I wanted. The only reason Im not giving it 5 stars is that the storage area has an awful odor. I put a bowl of damp baking soda with essential oils added into it and closed it up over night. That helped, but a lingering odor remains, so Im leaving it open to air it out. I plan to store yarn in it, and I dont want it absorbing the smell, so Ill probably need to put it in Ziploc bags first. Otherwise, its just as described.
