I love everything about this bench. Takes minutes to install (it comes fully assembled, you only need to screw in the legs) and requires no tools. It feels and looks well made and sturdy. The bench cushion also feels nice to sit on, its not a flat or flimsy pillow- much more robust. We are in the process of fixing up our entryway space and this bench was perfect. I tried to buy a second one in the same color (gray) but its currently sold out. Even my husband was impressed with the appearance/quality of the bench- Ang
