This bench looks amazing just like the picture. It is the exact look I wanted to compliment my dining room.  For that I would give it 5 stars. But I took a star off because there were staples from the canning application that were going through 2 of the bolt holes and prevented me from being able to put the second bolt in two of the legs to secure them to the seat. Also, I  am worried how long the canning will hold up with regulare use. It does not stay taught when you sit on it. I expected it to be more sturdy as no one else seemed to mention this.
