I actually bought this to use as an indoor bench with my farmhouse style dining table. I was really wanting a back to my bench so got this outdoor bench. Ordering a bench cushion because my kids say the bench “feels cold”. Have not received the cushion but a 54”x17” would be ideal! It didn’t arrive damaged at all. Took my husband about 15 min or less to put together. It’s long and can fit three people easily. I’m in love.
