The ottoman arrived earlier than expected...bonus. it looks exactly like pictured except there is a small area on top where the fabric is bunched together.  It is also very light weight which may be a good thing for easy moving when you are vacuuming.  Lots of storage space and large enough for the foot of a king bed.  The top does not open up all the way, but access is still easy. Overall, it is a nice looking functional unit.
