The bench is very nice looking, that much I will give to this piece. The cushion, however, is very cheap feeling. In the middle of the bench you can feel the spring hit the wooden slat and it makes this annoying and very cheap-sounding clicking noise every time you sit down. This doesn't happen on the sides of the bench but you can still feel how cheap the cushion feels. The cushion is squeaky when you make small adjustments to your position. Also, the parts bag was missing a washer. Again, this certainly looks nice but it is not worth the money. Returned.
