It works well as a bench in a corner of my small kitchen.  I have a small table in front of it and  3 more chairs on the other side of the table..  It gives me a little extra storage space and maximizes floor space in my small kitchen. It goes well with my dessert oasis color scheme.  The cushion is fairly comfortable.  You could fit two on it easily.  It was fairly easy to assemble.  It was made in China and does not look like great workmanship but I like it well enough for the price.  I hope it holds up.  Time will tell.
