I really like the bench.  It was exactly as described.  It was easy to assemble but for the price, I thought there would be less assembly required.  I would have given it 4 or 5 stars except for the fact that it had a strong lacquer oder that I did not know about.  The furniture, baskets and pad all have a strong oder.  I am trying to air them all out but can still smell it a week and a half later.  Our dog is epileptic and has had two seizures since I brought the piece into the house.  Not sure if its a coincidence or not but now I can not use this piece in the location that I had planned.
