This fit perfectly in my little nook! It was one of few narrow benches I could find. It wasn't super easy putting this together, also some of the pieces didn't fit into their assigned holes, so the process took a while. I ended up having a few pieces left over afterwards because of it which is never really a good sign...when it's all said and done, it looks nice but I'm not how sturdy the back is. Based on aesthetics I would definitely recommend. Based on reliability, I'm 50/50.
