i really like this product. There is no funny smell that some seagrass or ratan pieces have. The construction looks really good quality too. If I could leave a suggestion it would be lovely to have a lid in the bench seat for storing throw blankets or pillows. I wish the arms on the ends were a bit taller to support a pillow but the length on this bench was more important than the height of the arms. Love Wayfair's customer service!
