After looking for a bench to fit the smaller space by my back door, I finally found this! And it holds up to 250 pounds (at least that is what it claims and me and my husband can both sit on it fine which is over the 250 lb limit) vs. many smaller benches that are targeted more for kids (and are reviewed to not be sturdy) or as just a "shoe holder". This bench is one you CAN SIT ON SAFELY on while putting your shoes on and is a good adult height for that purpose. The bench was easy to assemble, I did it alone in about 15 minutes w/ 1 Philips screwdriver. The color is as pictured. The bench is sturdy.

Pros: Assembly, Color True to Photo, Height, Weight Limit
Cons: Not a Super High-End Bench, but great for back door area.
