Is the Holland ottoman good as a coffee table?

Yes. The tight, firm foam seat gives a stable surface at 16 inches tall, close to standard coffee table height. Use a tray for drinks and remotes so the leather is not marked.

How much storage does it hold?

The whole 30-inch round top lifts off, so the interior is roughly the full footprint of the ottoman. That is enough for throws, pillows, magazines or board games.

Is it comfortable to sit on?

It is firm rather than soft. The high-resiliency foam and webbing base hold their shape, which suits occasional seating and footrest use better than long lounging.

Does the leather need special care?

Yes. Dust it regularly and keep it out of direct sun, and use a leather conditioner made for upholstery leather. Wipe spills promptly, since tobacco leather darkens with wear.

Can I get it in another fabric or finish?

Jonathan Louis offers additional finish and fabric options on this piece. You have to request them through the seller rather than picking from the standard listing.

How many people does it take to move it?

One person can slide it, but at 41 pounds lifting it onto a rug or up stairs is easier with two. The top comes off, which makes carrying the base lighter.
