Shoe storage bench is really sturdy with great look. Material looks good. Seat is smooth and easy to clean. The assembly instruction can be a little detailed. I was bit unpleased with board nomenclature. It was printed on side edges in red color making it bit difficult to read. You may use stickers on board (A, B, C, D etc with a UP Arrow). It will make it really easy to assemble. I would recommend it to others.
