I wasnt a fan on pillowed ottomans. They never seemed to present well (in my opinion). When I got it, Id just figured Id just NOT attach the pillow portion to the ottoman; problem solvedwrong. Theres very strong adhesive black Velcro strips on the ottoman. No way around it, I was stuck w/the pillow. I was dreading having to deal with what I knew was going to look sloppy and how the pillow will always need to be adjusted so its not lumpy and/or just flat in areas when people used it. It hasnt been too bad though. Their is technically a storage in the ottoman, but its more for like magines or a small/thin throw blanket). I liked that the back goes all the way down to essentially be converted into like a bed (when used with the pillowed futon). In my place, its the last option b/c I have all sorts of convertible pieces that are actual bedseven my master bed looks like a daybed but it converts to a king. I thought this would be the chair everyone would fight for, but/ people tend to move the ottoman away and use it as a chair and others just use the chair. I use the ottoman and chair together (like a chaise) while reading books to my toddler, and the sleeping option has been used twice but while they said it was comfortablethe person was well over 6ft and hadnt received all the other convertible pieces (being still shipped) yet, and if youve been reading my reviewsthe grey futon was a joke and didnt count. Everyone at least agrees that its a great accent piece, but my group of people tend to marvel over it as a piece of art instead of a functional/usable piece of furniture. Good product for its value
