We really like this Kirkby Bench.  We bought it to be a coffee table in front of our leather sofa, but when we got it home, it was too small for that purpose.  Instead, we are using it at the foot of our bed.  The bench seems sturdy and strong and it feels like it is a piece of furniture that will last a long time.  We did have an issue with two of the screw-on threads in the bench being missing, but Wayfair customer service took care of us on that issue.
