As nice as this bench looks, I can't recommend anyone buying it.

I bought this bench to put in my entryway.  It looks just as good in person, but after less than two weeks, the bench broke.  I received a replacement bench, but a month later, that one broke.  I weigh 200lbs, far less than the 550lbs listed capacity of the bench, and it is only used for taking off shoes and occasionally as a resting spot for my dog.
