Love these ottomans. What you don't see in the photo is that the tops are padded so they are comfortable to sit on! Also, the little wooden feet are high quality. They stools feel very sturdy. And they allow for storage of blankets, etc, inside. I bought two of these to go on my enclosed front porch in front of the house, along with a little loveseat sofa and a bench with storage shelves from Great Offer Stock.
