First the cons.I wasnt sure if I liked it. It has more of a distressed look than anticipated, very vintagey. It also had an odor. I started looking around for wet smelly gym shoes, it smelled like feet! haha., I then realized it was the trunk. I raised the lid and threw in a dozen or so dryer sheets. 2 hours later, the odor had diminished. I think it just needs to air out for a couple of days and it will be fine. Over the course of the day the trunk has grown on me and I am VERY pleased with this purchase. I wanted something that was unique and original without breaking the bank. I didnt want to spend a lot of money but I didnt want it to look like I didnt spend a lot of money. This absolutely fits the bill. I love it now and having the extra storage space for pillows and blankets is wonderful. Im using it for a coffee table and I love the fact that its narrower than the coffee table it replaced. I love space and I dont like bulky furniture. well packaged, no damage, on/time delivery. Im very happy with this purchase.
