Review on Otto Ben 15 Storage Ottoman Furniture in Entryway Furniture by Brian Rogel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Impressively durable!

I didn't know it was foldable. Maybe I wasn't paying enough attention. Anyway, I got it so I can put my feet up and extra storage is never a bad idea. When it arrived in a tiny box, I realized everything was fine, I was supposed to pick it up. Then I opened it up and saw that it was made out of fabric just like those storage boxes. I was speechless; No way is this thing going to support my (pretty heavy) legs. As it turns out, this is not a problem at all. After you assemble it, it becomes as strong as a small table. I wouldn't sit on it, but I bet an average height person could probably do it. I was very surprised that it is so durable. I have no complaints about money. As a bonus, it fits under my IKEA LACK table as well as if it were meant to be stored there. UPDATE: I sat on it. I didn't even think about what I was doing, just sat in the nearest available facility. Not a very smart move when you're over 300 pounds, but I was very focused on something else. After 20 minutes I found that I was actually sitting on my new stool and it was holding my weight with no complaints. I watched it and there seemed to be no sign of tension anywhere. Now I'm even more impressed. If you've been thinking about getting one, I hope this helps you with your decision.
