This bench is great! I purchased it for my husband to keep his video game things in so they werent all over the place in our bedroom. He really likes the fact that its comfortable to sit on while he games, and that its so sturdy. I was really impressed with the overall quality of the piece my only complaint is that the Laguna color we purchased was a lot more green than it appeared to be in the online photos, but that could just be my phones resolution. Overall though, a great bench - Id definitely recommend it!
