I ordered two of these in black to use as end tables in my modern, eclectic living room.  I love them!  But I'm going to order a third and use all three side by side as a coffee table.  They are light weight but sturdy enough to serve as extra seating, easy to clean, and the cats love to play and snooze in them.  If I ever get sick of them in the living room, they will look great on the patio.  

Pros: Sturdy, modern looking, multi-functional
Cons: Can't get the #@$% label off.
