Great for extra storage. It easily holds my 150 lbs. Very sturdy, I don’t feel like I am going to fall or sink in at all. It comes in pieces. The bottom insert is very sturdy, holds the bottom out to hold my weight and whatever I have stored in it. I use this as my foot stool, vanity stool, computer desk and eating table. I also store my laptop and books when they are not in use. It’s tall enough for me to use with my vanity and I am 5’4.
