Once we had it put together and turned it over we noticed a 5-6 inch crack in one of the boards on the seat. It doesn't look like it happened in shipping it looks like  it was cracked when it was packaged. It will not effect the seat (we hope) we just wanted you to be aware of the issue.

Pros: Nice , sturdy, pretty piece of furniture. Very pleased.
Cons: Assembly could have been a little easier.
