This little gem works perfectly in the space at my front door.  I dont have a lot of room in my entry way and needed something that provided some seating.  Added bonus - you can store things in the seat as well as a bit of storage area underneath.  The instructions to put it together were not very good but having assembled a lot of things in my time it was not that hard to figure it out overall.  I highly recommend it.  Only reason I gave it 4 stars is that I feel its a bit overpriced for what you are getting... the storage area is mainly comprised of very thin board on the sides and bottom which are not the most sturdy and could potentially get damaged with too much weight, but for the general purpose that I need it it works.
