Good buy for the price. August 4, 2008 The ottomans are well-made and stylish. Would be five star if not for the bad smell.

You get what you pay for. I purchased this item at a great price on Amazon. I read some other people's reviews and saw that some experienced strong chemical smell, and others didn't. I decided to chance it.
The item arrived and much to my disappointment it did have a strong chemical smell. Also the inside tray under the lid is made out of some sort of cardboard, so don't even think about putting a cold glass on it without a good coaster or it will swell up. Also the tray on the underside of mine looked like it was scratched and somebody colored it in with a black ink pen to conceal the damage. Needless to say it went back. Amazon's return policy is awesome! Its too bad the items didn't work out for me.
Global Distinctions Ottoman Set August 4, 2008 I have actually enjoyed using this product. I am a psychotherapist and I use this in my practice both as extra seating and as a prop for relaxation therapy. I have two complaints about this product. The ottomans had an intense vinyl smell which gave me a headache at first. (The smell eventually faded after a couple of weeks.) And, the product is made in China. I had to tear the tags off before my husband saw them and made send them back. Be patriotic, save American jobs, buy Made in USA whenever you can.
Nothing Special August 3, 2008 It is basically a standard fake leather Ottoman. As other reviews state, the stink is the main drawback of these ottomans. They kind of smell like they were doused in gasoline. But in fairness, the smell does fade after time. They do although serve their purpose, but I would not use the storage area for anything that you would not want smelling of the gasoline like smell (example blankets).
Great value but as others have said... a tad smelly August 3, 2008 This set exceeded expectations for the price. I read the reviews and expected the chemical smell. I just made sure I kept it on the porch for several weeks prior to bringing it in the house. As I'm not sure the smell is entirely gone, I wouldn't store blankets or other items that can absorb odor within the large one.
