I didn't want the typical pouf. One that looked good on arrival but then flatten out after too much use. I am beyond happy I found these. The one piece of furniture that pretty much met all my requirements. Perfect size / height, sturdy (weight limit of 200lbs), comfortable (due to padding at top) and classy colors. The one MINOR request I would make would be to have the ability to unzip so I can clean / wash outer material, but again, it's minor. I would give these more than 5 starts if I could. I got 3 in all different colors. Don't skip on these.
