Beautiful bench when finally assembled. Thank goodness my hubby can fix anything. The screws feel like they are stripped when in reality the problem is the threads where they go in are too deep for the screws so they don't grab.  Also while putting together a fair size piece flaked off of the edge of the bench which we glued back on with waterproof glue. It's not noticeable and I  am using it in the shower and so far so good. It is a beautiful piece.  UPDATE Now that we have had the bench for a bit I dropped the rating as we are still having problems with the hardware, the bench has become very wobbly even with the fix, we are left to find another way to secure the bench.
