As other reviewers have said, I agree that this bench is much sturdier than it looks and looks exactly as described. This was my first wayfair purchase and when people say the directions are very vague, they really mean it! Just some pictures and numbers. However it was really easy to assembly for one person. 

The downside is that the welding that connect the metal parts are a bit sloppy, so some parts don't connect well. Though, I was able to work it so it's not that noticeable. The other issue is that one area of the stitching on the leather looks really loose, so only time will tell if it breaks or not.

That said, the bench still meets my expectations, especially for this kind of price. I like it so much that I bought another one. Highly recommended for someone on a budget and want to buy a sturdy and classic looking bench.
