We’ve had our bench for over a year now, and I love it. We have this bench in our front yard as a place to sit and look at the garden. The bench was fairly easy to put together, I did it myself and it didn’t take too long. I put this together in my driveway. I didn’t want the wood to get scratches so I worked on top of the cardboard box it came in, old shower curtainsoutdoor blankets etc. 

Our bench has been outside, uncovered, in a year of Georgia weather now and it is still holding up great. I was concerned about how the elements would wear on this, but so far rainstorms have not hurt the bench.

I love it’s design, I think it looks more expensive than it really is. Classy and elegant, stylish but understated. Highly recommend!
