This is a very nice ottoman that seems sturdy and of good quality. My only complaint is that I hate the color!  I was expecting more of a gold color. This is a beige with a muted blue thread through it. The combination to me makes it seem kind of a pukey color, and it always looks dirty on top even though it isn't.  It reminds me of something my grandmother would have (not in a good way). One of the drawback of buying online I guess. Since its not worth it to pay for return shipping I will keep it, and like I said the overall design is very nice. I love the tufted look and it's the perfect size and height.
