The bench looks okay after I've put it together, but be warned it is more than 90% MDF wood. The description is misleading because it makes you think it is solid construction.  The pegs that hold together the backrest arrived broken so I had to glue it together with wood glue. The bottom is not solid at all; it is just a thin, shoddy piece of cardboard. It is not sturdy and I'm curious to see how it'll hold up with my two boys.
