I was pleasantly surprised at the quality, heaviness and sturdiness. I gave it a 4 rating only because there was a defect on the inside wall of the basket in the weaving, which looked partially cracked. I'll have to figure out a way to reinforce it. It was larger than I expected but it will hold a lot of pillows in my master bedroom. Be sure to measure your area so it fits! I think the price could be brought down further but I'd been watching this item for quite some time so I decided to finally buy it.
