One minor inconvenience is the bar on the shelf underneath. I have hit my knees on it occasionally, and, I like to put my bare feet up there, but the sharp edges aren't very comfy.
I found an inexpensive, quick solution by putting a piece of pipe insulation over it. So much better!
The bar/shelf can be used to store magazines or books like below.
