I have not yet received the brown ottoman, but the red one came in late last week, and it is gorgeous. It is a high quality piece of furniture with lots of storage space. The price of this item was amazing, considering I spent $170.00 elsewhere at a local store on a red ottoman that was a third the size, was not real leather, and did not have the nailhead accenting. The legs are sturdy and a rich chocolate colour. There is nothing about this ottoman that is not to like; I am eve n considering ordering the black one, if the brown one is of a similar quality when it comes in.
