This is exactly what I was looking for to put on my front porch. It looks great and the quality looks sturdy and well put together. I had it inside my house for a week before putting it on the porch and I actually liked it inside the house also. It went perfect for this small area that I really didn't want to put a small half-moon table or similar. This small bench was much more unique, which is my style preference. Adds that little bit of character.
