This beautifully carved entry bench fits very well in my front entry and storage is large enough to store shoes, jackets and blankets.  I would have rated it five stars but the original bench arrived cracked and broken (see photos). The back side of the bench near the hinge was cracked and cannot be repaired.  Wayfair immediately sent out a replacement for no charge.  The bench arrives in one piece and does not need to be assembled which is a plus.  The carving is very nice and the light colored cushion is comfortable. I would recommend this item.
