I ordered two of these ottomans for my living area. I like them for extra seating or something comfortable to prop my feet up on. The only reason I'm giving them 4 stars rather than 5 is because there are slight differences in appearance. This is because they are handmade and I think it adds to their charm, but beware if you order more than one, with the expectation that they'll be identical. The linings are different colors, as are the shades of wool used to weave the exterior. One pouf is more tightly woven than the other, giving it smaller dimentions overall. At first I was disappointed with their differences, but they've grown on me and now I love them!
