I spent months searching for the perfect bench for my entryway and since I had something very specific in mind I really struggled.  When I came across this bench I completely forgot the concept I had in mind because this was actually better!  I went with the gray color and absolutely love it.  I did have a small issue with a cracked board but I don't think it reflected the quality of the bench and I was super impressed with how Wayfair handled that issue.  I was shipped a new piece, no questions asked.  It's because of the service I receieved and quality of the product that I'm now searching for the perfect couch on wayfair.  If you've been wondering whether or not to buy this or any item, DO IT!  It won't be a decision that you regret.
