This little bench, short, is sturdy enough for children.  I hesitate to suggest it could have adults using it often.  It has an attractive shiny finish which is showing wear after about five months in my greenhouse, which is not overly moist, and I use it mainly for holding items I am working with instead of a table or the ground, and it is fine for that. I originally bought it for a once in the while bench for family portraits. Never used it, and hesitate to say it could hold two adults and a child safely. So if you use it mainly as an extra item it will be just fine, otherwise a stronger piece of furniture would be recommended.
