Purchased for the foot of my king sized bed.  Needed a bench no more than 14" due to space limitations; that width is difficult to find.  I liked this bench for the unusual leg design.  I am pleased with the reclaimed wood, it's rustic with some knots, holes and distressed marks but not over-the- top.  The legs are painted so if the black doesn't work in one's space the color can be changed out.
