I love the look of church pew seating. This bench is narrow, long and sturdy, which  made it perfect for my home entryway. Easy assembly.  Looks great with a couple throw pillows. Plus in a pinch, if I need extra seating, I can pull it up to the dining room table and use the existing dining chairs in other areas of the house.  At Christmas, I displayed my Reindeer collection underneath. Lol sounds a bit strange, and my Reindeer's looked great!  Highly recommend!
