We really love this coffee table.  We love the storage cube to hold throws, kids toys, laptop chargers, etc.  We had been looking at the Kanson table from Macys, which runs about 900.  We were not willing to pay 900 for a coffee table, so when we found this one we felt it was the perfect compromise.  It has all the same features (table with the ottomans that double as storage) so we were willing to lose some of the high end features (solid wood table and on the sides of the ottomans) for the price.  Overall, we are very satisfied with this purchase.
