Love This Ottoman
Date: February 5, 2010
"I love everything about this Ottoman! The size, color and construction are great. This piece has so many uses from side table in the living room or bedroom to accent table, ottoman or extra sitting. I'm only sorry I didn't order more than one!"

Don't like the new design
Date: January 9, 2010
"Can't believe you changed this product for one state! I guess if you didn't have the original you might not realize what a difference, the orignial was much more refined. I bought 2 of the original design at the store in Dec. and then ordered 1 more online. Totally different, as per previous review, can't put wine glass on the new one withour fear of it tipping over, which totally defeats the purpose of having it. If you are just looking for something to put magazines on it will probably be ok, but know what you are getting!"

a beautiful addition
Date: November 28, 2009
"I was looking for a table with a different texture and feel to go in my living room. This ottoman is perfect! You can put drinks or vases on it, and I love the weave! Definitely a good but for me."

What happened to the old style??
Date: November 20, 2009
"Just got back from the store, where we had planned to purchase 2 more of these pieces (we'd purchased 2 of them just 6 weeks ago) - the style of this piece has COMPLETELY changed. The weave is entirely different, and now it's too bumpy to place items on (compare photos of the new product, then view the old style in the living room shot). Why would C+B redesign one of their most popular products? VERY disappointed!"

Response from Crate and Barrel:By Customer ServiceDecember 4, 2009
We appreciate your feedback. We modified the frame of this ottoman to comply with new federal regulations in the state of California. In order to continue offering this customer favorite at the same great price as well as improve its stability, we chose a metal frame. We have updated the information in our stores and online to reflect this change. Thank you for taking the time to write a product review. We read each and every one to help us make our products and services the best they can be. Your feedback is important…and appreciated.

love it!
Date: August 24, 2009
"I use it as a side table in between 2 slipper chairs. Its round shape breaks the monotony of my all-square/rectangular pieces. Also, love the color! works so well to accent my lighter pieces at home!"

Stylishly round side table/ottoman
Date: August 19, 2009
"I love the Abaca Ottoman when I first saw it in the catalog. It works great with all of my espresso brown pieces in my family/living room. It adds texture and shape to any space. Light enough to move around and sturdy enough to use as a table or ottoman. I use as a side table between my leather sofa and chair. It's great for kids and you can sit drinks without the need for coasters and damaging wood surfaces! Love it!"

Perfect fit!
Date: August 7, 2009
"We looked all over for the perfect table to coordinate with our small L shaped couch. This table/ottoman is the perfect fit; not too small not too big! The shape and size is the perfect match to our couch, we love it!
The color is great too! I agree with the reviews, it is much darker then it appears online - I call it java.

handy addition
Date: August 7, 2009
"I've looked for ages for something that can functiion as an attractive small coffee table and is easily moveable. The abaca ottoman is perfect. It's attractive and has a larger flat surface than I imagined. It's sustantial, but light enough to move out of the way when it's time to exercise. It also is perfect as a quick extra seat. It is darker that pictured--a very dark brown."

Good Loking and Great Value

"I purchased this ottoman to use a
side table in my great room. It did not work there, but it now serves as my vanity stool in my master bathroom. Besides it great look, it is very sturdy. The color however is much darker than pictured.

Love the texture
Date: June 20, 2009
"I purchased two of the abaca ottomans for an attorney's reception area. The coffee colored "ottomans" served nicely as cool looking side tables. The texture added a great dimension and the price is fantastic. The ottomans could easily be used in almost any room of a house as well."

"We purchased three of these instead of a coffee table, mostly for versatility. Now as a bonus we love the look! They're an elegant addition to our living room."

Happy with the ottomans
Date: June 19, 2009
"We recently bought two ottomans to replace our coffee table. We have a 6 month old baby girl and the coffee table would have been dangerous once she starts crawling and pulling up. They are really pretty and look great in our living room. As a bonus, they are light and easy to move out of the way to make more space for her to play now.
My ottomans are a bit darker than those pictures - they are a uniform dark brown."

Amazing!!!
Date: June 1, 2009
"These ottomans h as so many uses... I have used them in the guest room as nightstands, and have another in the guest bathroom to place a nice stack of clean towels for vistors! They are very sturdy and are the prefect color to match all shades of brown... they have great color variance and blend nicely. They can be used as extra seats if you are looking for extra chairs."
