This is just what I was looking for at a very reasonable price for my budget compared to others I have viewed. It came well packaged and in good time.  I fully expected to have to give this an initial coat of rust proof paint. The rose back panel is made of strong plastic which doesn't need painting but the finish of the rest of it looks to be very good as it is. It is easy to assemble and looks great in my garden. Very, very pleased with this smart looking bench seat.
