We are quite happy with our new storage bench so far.  The smaller size and sturdiness fit our needs and will be used on our side entry porch.  The wood and cushion came in a cream color which I did not like.  However, I have painted the bench "white" and am having the cushion upholstered to match my entry décor.  My husband was able to assemble the bench and baskets without much trouble.  I'm hoping the baskets hold up as they seem a bit flimsy.   Overall, it is exactly what we were looking for.

Pros: Smaller size, sturdy, attractive
Cons: Baskets a bit flimsy
