Husband put the bench together in one evening, directions were ok.  The wood does have a strong smell to it - I have it out in a storage building so I think it will quickly air out.  Bench is made from a soft wood, but I feel it will be durable for light weight repotting that I will do on the weekends. 

Pros: Good value, easy assembly, quick shipment 
Cons: soft wood, scratches easily
