This bench, now in my courtyard, looks exactly as pictured on the Wayfair site.  My greatest concern was assembling it once it arrived— right on time.  As good fortune would have it, my son was visiting.  Although he's generally not a handyman, he and my 9-year-old granddaughter put it together with zero frustration in a short time.  It has been out in the elements, meaning rain and sun, for nearly two months now, and seems to be withstanding both quite well.  It's also even more comfortable than it looks.  Don't think cushions will be needed!  No hesitation about recommending it to others.
