What happened This cute little storage bench was a disaster. Well packed, but the surface finish is a wreck, and poorly adheres to the particle board. Every piece was wrapped and separated in the box, but the boards were all scratched. The only surface that was decent was the top so we decided to put it together… only to find a finishing scuff that runs the length of the top. Do not put anything damp on this, it wont last. The center metal leg bracket was also bent slightly. Assembly wasn’t that hard, but the locking screws didn’t tighten enough to stop a wobble. The manufacturing is less than precise, and I just can’t recommend this one.
