Like the bench, very sturdy once assembled.  However,  hardly antique navy color.  It is a dark battleship gray, not a hint of blue.  Would have preferred blue but can live with it.  Also,  the texture of the cushion material is nice but the color is awful!  It is a cross between beige and light yellow.  We are going through the trouble and expense of recovering the cushion with a more suitable fabric.   As a third strike one of the assembly wood screws had a filled in head so I had to substitute from my screw bin
