Looks nice enough so far, but cant finish assembly. Midway through, I discovered that a socket (for the screws provided, one of which is supposed to be welded at each end of a crosspiece) is missing from one end of a crosspiece. So the frame cant be assembled. Trying to figure out how to contact the vendor for a replacement.
Also, regarding complaints Ive read about complicated instructions: (1) you have to pay really close attention to them because a few key visual cues are not provided and (2) there are a couple of minor omissions and one error in the drawings that make it hard to use just the drawings to figure out what to do. you have to reconstruct the finished piece in your head. You have to overrule the drawing in error in order to successfully assemble.
I cant really comment on the finished piece because the kit is still in pieces on my living room floor.
I love the rustic look of this bench. I felt that in step number five, the screws used to secure the iron rails to the bottom of the bench were not long enough. I didnt feel as if it was securing the wooden box to the frame enough. All in all once assemble it is a beautiful piece of furniture. The base is not as deep as I would like it for sitting purposes but it does serve the functionality and looks great!
Decent product, average quality for the money. Putting it together was made more difficult due too limited instructions. They should have a video tutorial to go with the very basic illustrated instructions.
Bought this item for my entrance way. First may i say that the finish and metal are all great quality. The fully assembled item looks greaf and seems pretty sturdy. With that being said it was a pain to assemble. The holes are pre drilled but not fully so you have to really use your strength to get any progress with tightening the skrew. I was excited initially when i saw the Instructions looked fairly detailed. Unfortunately they needed more explanation then the picture showed. I took several parts apart realizing several steps later that i had assembled it incorrectly. Again i would definitely buy again. Just difficult to assemble. Bring a friend and you will be done in 30 min.
I needed an entryway bench for a small area. It is perfect for purses, diaper bags, backpacks and shoes. Its a bit shorter than I wouldve liked but I was limited because of the space. Would definitely buy again. Very sturdy and love the look.

Not as great as I was hoping for but definitely serves the purpose

Very Limited Instructions

Everything is good
Except that the installation requires a little technology, there is no problem with other qualities.
Laminated
Product was wrapped in laminate. Small
Great quality. Hard to assemble
