I ordered two of these benches for my very narrow back porch area.  They are exactly as I pictured they would look.  Very easy to put together and very cute looking.  I bought them mostly for decorative purposes and not for extended sitting times.  Some people mentioned they were uncomfortable.  I can tell you exactly why:  they sit pretty low to the ground & the bench seating portion is fairly deep: if you are a petite lady your back will not touch the back of the bench.  My husband's back reaches the back of the bench when he sits, mine does not.  Also, because of the large gap between the bench seat and the back of the bench, it was a little uncomfortable for my husband and really uncomfortable for me.  I purchased a bench cushion; hoping that will make it more comfortable.  But as I said, I bought these mainly for their looks and size; as far as seating, they will mostly be used by the three dachshunds.
