Bench looks great in foyer and after put together was more sturdy than expected.  There were several flaws with the material such as:  Small pin size areas with white paint missing and the particle board showing; There is a groove on the top approx. 1" from the edge of the bench with part of the groove displaying white paint while other parts of the groove are displaying the particle board; Not enough glue came with the bench for all of the dowel holes; Pre-drilled dowel holes were too big for the wooden dowels that came with the bench; and the Visible chrome brackets below the sitting area of the bench contribute to an inferior look.
