Really nice accent bench but some of the pieces were very difficult to get together.  Assembly was really easy but, the one of our "arm" pieces barely fit into the space, hence there are no scratches on the seat near those spindles.  Also, we were not able to get the arm pieces to fit flush to the back spindles no matter how hard we tried.  We even had a neighbor, who is a home builder, stop by to help us and he couldn't get it flush either.   But, since we're only really using this as an accent piece it will work, just won't look perfect.  Also, I think it would be great if the bench came with a tiny container of touch up paint to fix any scratches that occur during assembly as they are likely going to happen.
