Love this bench, it goes perfect with the table that I ordered to match. It only took a few minutes to put together & I did it all by myself. The bench was packaged so well, that it took longer to get out of the box & bubble rap, then to put the whole bench together. Ordered it longer so it would fit the table, and so glad I did!!! Thank you for such a beautiful, well made bench, that I can't wait to have a dinner party!
