The ottoman was incredibly easy to assemble and was practically all together in the box already.  It is very sturdy and the leather top looks high quality.  Leather has a slight aged look with some creasing but that adds to the quality appearance I feel.  The storage compare is very spacious and can fit a ton.  It is easy to lift with hydraulic hinges.  The shelf on the bottom is also a great place to store stuff.  You can’t really see under so you and place items that you do not want to bee seen underneath. Overall I am extremely satisfied with the ottoman and it is exactly what I was looking for.
