hall tree I received had two cracks in the two back boards. I don't know if they were damaged in shipping or were already that way before shipment because the box didn't look damaged. Also it was missing 1 bolt that goes in the side of the bench. I should have waited and purchased the larger size since this is smaller than I expected. Pros: Great value For the size Cons: smaller than it looks, which I would have just ordered a bigger one.
