This is a very solid and well made bench. I’m not using it in a shower or in a wet environment so I can’t attest to its durability in that regard. Instead it’s a seat for putting shoes on and off by my narrow doorway. It’s a pretty solid shade of grey. I gave it four stars because it was damaged on delivery and although the shipping box wasn’t crushed, one of the corners has a dent. I didn’t bother returning it because it’s not a deal-breaking blemish.
