Bench arrived very quickly and assembly was very easy.  This bench also comes in a hardwood version, which I mistakenly thought I was buying, so a bit flimsier than I expected, but that was by mistake and I should have realised this by the price.  Having said that it is still a nice bench.  However, if you want a WHITE bench this is not the one for you.  By no measure is this white.  It is more of a mushroom colour so the picture and description is misleading.  I note the makers do describe it as white so this is not an error, but no, it isn't white.  Having said that I quite like the colour so am keeping it.  Just glad that I had hesitated before buying other white garden items to match it.
