Wrapped to prevent damage on fabric. Perfect size to sit on one side. Flip the top to convert to a mini end table. Large enough to throw a blanket in the larger one. Very functional. Cream and gold add just right amount of glamBeautiful CREAM colored ottomanThese ottomans look great. They are NOT white as listed. They are cream, so be aware of this.The sizes can accomodate a lot of items. The velvet is nice and smooth. The gold bands are nice and shiny.The plastic pads on the bottom cause the ottomans to easily move across the floor without scratching the floor.The ottomans came nicely packaged, was ready to use right out of the box. The small one was in the big one. There was really no assembly just take it off the box and put the top on. Great for additional seating and storage. Made of great quality and easy to spot clean. Highly recommended!Very beautiful and sturdy. These are absolutely gorgeous. I love the storage capacity and how much they hold they had a really nice look to my home.Well, I'm not ashamed to say that I fell in love with these small sitting circles. Perfect for decorating the living room at a high level, the fabric material is perfect like a pleasant velvet, the color and the combination with the gold give it a particularly luxurious tone and a surprise: you can hide a lot of things inside, certainly when your guests inform you that they are coming to you in 20 minutes and all the toys are scattered in the living room lol ????My living room furniture is cream with blue accents & I like the idea of having additional pieces with more than one use. These ottomans can store things, like throws for chilly evenings or games or Legos for the grandchildren. They can provide additional seating, or I can flip the lids over to use as small tables.The blue fabric is a medium shade velvet with a smooth top & pleated sides. The smooth-edged gold strip that goes all the way around provides a pretty sparkle. The lid flips to a flat wooden surface for use as an end table. There are small plastic casters on the bottom that help moving the ottomans easier.It doesn’t say how much weight the ottomans can hold but while they look quite sturdy, the sides would have to support all of the weight. Since it’s hollow, so I wouldn’t let anyone larger than a child sit on it. I do wish there was that information on the ottomans.These are really nice pieces of furniture & they’re an asset to my living room décor.Good for cozy environment. Comfortable experience. High quality. I love the practicality that I can store 3 blankets in the big one and one blanket in the small. If you don’t want both on the floor. The small one fits into the big one.
