It is a good size to hold all our blankets and yoga mats. The colour is nice and neutral. I love the wood finish for the lid, but the wood for the main chest is a little light weight. The bottom is very thin particle board. I added glue along the seams during assembly to reinforce it. Went together easily enough. The main reason this is a 3 stars for me is the stay open arms are absolute garbage. I had to order pneumatic arms to replace them.
