We were pleasantly surprised at the value this bench brought for the price. Solid construction and an attractive finish. We were a bit disappointed with the clarity of the instructions for building it, but figured it out without much trouble. Took about an hour to build. One other trifle is that the drawers fit snugly. A little soap solved it.

Pros: Affordable, yet sturdy and attractive
Cons: Drawers fit too snugly.
