Well constructed; easy to assemble with bench arriving in only 2 pieces - just had to attach bench top with 6 small screws.  Old sage color choice very vibrant - a bit brighter than on-line color presentation, but that is to be expected.  Like the storage option and that bench is raised allowing space beneath for additional storage area for everyday shoes.  Finish on bench is flat/rustic and very sturdy to sit on.  Great value and free shipping option appreciated!
