I purchased one of these ottomans several months ago and really like it. I thought I might like to have a matching one to put side by side in between two matching barrel chairs so I ordered another one. They look good together and give me the flexibility to move them around for extra seating when I need to. I like the storage for putting throws in during the day when we aren't using them. My disappointment is from the indentation or grooves from the wrapping on the top of the cushion. I am hoping it will go away eventually, but if not I may return it after the holiday season and hope another one won't be scarred.

Pros: Very sturdy for seating and good storage. I like the option of using it as a footstool or side table for entertaining.
Cons: On this particular ottoman the wrapping scarred the top of the seat/cushion.
