I really like this bench for our closet dressing area however I only gave it 3 stars because it is not very sturdy and I would not use it where it was going to be seen by other people.  It arrived unassembled and was fairly easy to put together however, it keeps loosening up over time and requires constant tightening of all the screws to keep it from wobbling when you sit on it.  This probably could be solved by using some carpenter's glue when you put it together but we did not do that. The price was so reasonable that I have to say I felt it was worth the effort we have put into it.  It is the perfect size and color for where I use it so I think the value outweighs the inconvenience.
