I got these drums to serve as side tables for two chairs in our living room and they are perfect! The large blue one holds a tall lamp and has enough room for a coaster/glass and photo frame. The gray one (I thought is would be yellow or beige) is slightly lower, but still great for setting down a drink and holding a smaller lamp. The red one I use to hold a plant in front of one of our windows. Very cute and functional. They came nicely packaged with no damage.
