Bench was very easy to put together and seems well made for the type of material used.  I was disappointed at how small it is - I guess I should have read the description a little better.  If I had realized the size and how cheap the baskets were that came with it, I am not sure I would have paid $279.00 for this bench.  In any case, it was for my daughter-in-law and she said she liked it.  

Cons:
