You get what you see with this bench.  It is heavy-duty, and mine came with two wicker baskets that fit into the larger compartments but are not shown in the photo.  A pair of children's shoes fit into the smaller compartments, but larger adult shoes do not. 

Pros: Finish is well done, a solid piece, and cost was worth it.
Cons: The pad on top will probably need to be replaced at some point if the bench is used regularly.
