Overall we really like the storage bench. It was missing screws to put it together but we were able to use some screws we had here instead. My biggest complaint is the chemical smell coming off of it. I'm not sure what type of paint was used and/ or what the cushion was treated with but I have had to leave the cushion on an outside porch to air it out for several days and run an air filter in my daughter's bedroom to try and get rid of the smell. I did not have this issue with the desk we ordered previous to this order.
