I'm 38 weeks pregnant, and for some reasons, this storage bench is a little bit too slippery for me to step on. Arranging this ivory color bench right beside my queen bed, I am hoping to be able to utilize it to climb up on the bed.  However, I need to  be very careful and stabilize or balance myself in order not to let the bench move away from the edge of my queen size bed. I'm not sure if other reviewers have the same issues or just me having this problem.  Other than this specific problem, this is an ideal storage bench in terms of color and function!  I'm happy to see the space of the storage.. large enough to throw stuff inside.
