Perfect size for the location I wanted it to go in. It is sturdy, and looks beautiful! Shipping was fast, and well packaged. We live in So-cal where it NEVER rains. The day this was delivered, it was one of those few days of torrential downpours and was worried the ottoman would get damaged from the rain. Nope!! The minute I got home I opened the box and it was sealed with plastic so that is a plus! I LOVE this ottoman!   =)
