We like the look of the bench, but the construction is cheap. Poor quality. Sharp edges.
One of the side pieces had hole drilled on the wrong end, so we had to drill our own holes. One of the steps told us to use the wrong hole for screw, which caused damage to the inner side of the wood. This is the lowest quality piece of furniture that I had purchased from Wayfair. Based on the pictures on the product page for Sandy Pine, I was expecting it to be whiter.
