Very misleading from the picture. The top is not one solid piece of wood but 1" planks nailed together. There are 3 thin (bad quality) bolts on either end that support the bench. I replaced this with bolts from Home Depot. Still, bench wobbles back and forth and the only person that can sit on it is my wife. For the price, I would have expected more. I am going to make a brace for the bottom which eliminate the side to side sway of the bench. Even then, it will be relegated to the back yard for decoration only.
