I love this ottoman. I have never ordered furniture pieces through but after reading reviews on this I decided to give it a try. I love the color (mine is grey) as it coordinates well with my other modern grey pieces; I truly appreciate that its a nice size for our space and the quality of workmanship is quite good. The one warning I would share is to not force it to move on carpet or anything that it seems stuck on. Reason: the block that each leg attaches to is MDF and if forced, that MDF will totally disintegrate and the leg will rip out. We are not hard on furniture. I still have a love seat that we bought in the 1990s and its still sturdy and in great condition. Fortunately hubs is a woodworker and after pulling staples out and folding back the dust cover (which was nicely attached I might add) he was able to pull out the disintegrated MDF block and replace it with a real wood block after inserting the screw head that the leg attaches into. So it is repaired I am pleased. However, we noted tonight that a second leg will likely need the same treatment. I am impressed with all the rest of this ottoman, I just wish they would manufacture that critical spot with real wood. We will be putting 1.25 inch slider/glider caps on the legs to avoid any other chance for damage.
Great Storage Ottoman! but a Note of Caution.
