We have 9mos twins that are beginning to walk using furniture.  This is perfect for them, since it is cushioned, and us, since it has out-of-sight storage for their toys or the things that they aren't supposed to get into.  I was (pleasantly) surprised that it delivered on Saturday, 9/13 when it was due to arrive Monday, 9/15.  It is a good match with the furniture we already have in our living room.
