These have been great for our large upholstered ottoman for our sectional. We keep our game console controllers, fireplace controller, and remote control in it normally, but it's handy to be able to pull out the smaller tray and have the larger tray as a spot for drinks, snacks, etc. We like to use them when entertaining too--we remove all the TV and gaming stuff and just use them to hold snack bowls, napkins, and drinks. The base/inside is like stamped tin (not ceramic like it sort of looks like in photos), so it's not a totally flat surface, which can make cups a little wobbly, but it hasn't been an issue and it's pretty easy to clean. They're not super fancy, but they look nice and have a decent feel/weight too.
