This ottoman is lovely and exactly as described and perfect for the price BUT if you have small children that enjoy a stage this is NOT the ottoman for you. We've had it 4 months and the legs are barely standing due to our small children bouncing on it as a stage. I'm completely aware that was our decision to let them do that. You should also note that if you have little ones who have curious fingers the buttons will come off easily and you can't get them back on.  Ours looks pitiful now but if it was just the two of us (or older kids) it probably would have survived longer.
