This piece is amazing. It is sturdy, looks sleek and expensive. It took about 30-45 min to assemble. Not difficult, parts were marked well. Note: most pieces were marked on the plastic packaging it was wrapped in, so don’t just start tearing the metal poles out of plastic packaging. This bench/coat hook solution is slimmer and shorter than most. That was a good thing for me and my hallway. I have been searching for something with these general dimensions for years. The wood finish is really smooth, feels stable, and comes with an optional wall anchor if you’re worried about tipping. I’m not using it.
