Is the Gallup ottoman real leather?

No. The cover is faux leather over a polyester blend, with a solid and manufactured wood frame. It gives the leather look without the upkeep of real hide.

Yes, but the weight capacity is 250 lb, so it suits occasional seating rather than a daily armchair substitute. The 15.75-inch height matches most sofa seats.

Does the lid stay open?

It is a plain hinged lid with no soft-close or strut. Owners report holding it up or propping it while loading and unloading.

How much does it hold?

The interior measures about 25.5 by 25.5 inches and 6.5 inches deep. That is enough for several folded blankets, pillows or a toy collection.

What colors does it come in?

Brown, black, caramel, dark brown and gray. All use the same distressed faux-leather finish.

Does it need assembly?

Yes, but it is light work: attach the legs and fit the lid with basic tools. Most owners finish in well under an hour.

Our take on the Red Barrel Studio Gallup 28" Wide Leather Square Storage Ottoman

The Gallup is a 28-inch square storage ottoman in distressed faux leather, with a hinged lid that opens to a 25.5-inch-wide compartment. It works as a coffee table, a footrest and a blanket or toy bin in one piece, and the 15.75-inch seat height suits most sofas. Against tufted or nailhead leather ottomans it is plainer and lighter-duty, with a 250 lb weight limit and a polyester-blend cover rather than real leather. Owners rate it highly for looks and storage room; the main caveats are the faux-leather feel and a lid that needs a prop to stay open.
