This is the perfect bench/table for our family room. Four people can comfortably rest their feet on it from the couch as the cushion makes it quite comfy. The bench also serves as extra seating. I can fold laundry and fit five separate piles on it. We can remove the cushion and let the kids snack for game day. The quality of the cushion and wood bench are great. I have tightened the screws once since purchase to re-stabilize the bench. I did recover the cushion with a preferred fabric so I cannot speak to the quality of the material that comes standard.
