This bench seems very sturdy and well made, the box was certainly heavy enough. Unfortunately, it came damaged. There was a dark, embedded mark in the center of the fabric, and the color is quite a bit darker in person than what the picture represents, (reason for the 4 stars) so I’m returning, rather than replacing it. Although, I am very pleased with the ease of my return. I thought it was going to be a costly hassle and it wasn’t. Thank you WAYFAIR!
