I bought it for my parents to use in their room while visiting. My mom said it's very comfortable, especially as a foot rest. It looks pretty sturdy and is actually a bit bigger than I expected. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is that the color (I got the blue) is completely different from the picture. The blue on the website is much darker and richer, with a hint of teal. What I got was a light blue closer to gray. It's still pretty, and still matches my other furniture at home. I'm not sending it back for an exchange. But it made me think I clicked on the wrong color while ordering.
