I really love the look of this bench. The leather looks authentic and looks like it will age nicely. It arrived fully assembled which is a plus. The only negative was that it had a very offensive smell (like cat urine) when we unwrapped it. We wiped it down thoroughly and applied leather conditioner to the leather which helped, but the smell lingered for a few days. It’s doesn’t have an odor anymore so I still gave it 5 stars based on the value.
