This little bench is sturdy and the perfect size to fit in front of our king size bed. It matches our larger French bench that is used as a holder for pillows and linens while making the bed. We use the smaller one as a seat for putting on shoes because our bed is high. It’s exactly what we needed and serves the purpose without taking up much space in our bedroom. It is well made, easy to assemble, and looks way more expensive than the advertised price. Wayfair scores again!
