This is the second of these that weve bought. We have one near the doorway for shoes and then we bought a second for by a window to store art supplies for our daughter. Its very sturdy and does the job. The three drawer plastic desktop storage units fit in there as a cube, so it works great for art storage.
This one we modified a bit because it was being placed over a heat vent I just cut out part of the front kickboard to allow air to come out.
We wanted a bench for our mudroom, and chose this one because it looked nice and there were were a variety of fabric drawers that could be bought to go with it ( We went with 5877 Cubeicals Fabric Drawer; I think they cost $6.99 each). For others, it was hard to tell what kinds of drawers would fit.
Its a nice design. It was easy to assemble. The cushion is secured with velcro and can be removed for cleaning. The colour for the cushion is mocha. We went with the natural colour for the fabric drawers (because it was in stock) and it matches very well - looks great.
We originally saw this on another site, then found that was selling it for half the price, with free delivery. It didnt take very long to arrive and was well-packaged. But when we opened it, we discovered that there was a dent in the top piece, along the back edge. It looks like it was damaged before packaging, not during transport. Because the damage is at the back and under the cushion, we decided to keep it. But be sure to check for damage before assembly.
It did have some scratches, chips and marks on it when it arrived, but its going to be sort of temporary for us and a child is going to use it so it wasnt worth sending it back for. Assembly is easier than it is for most furniture of this type. Measure carefully because its a bit on the small side when assembled. I dont know any windows quite this low.
This bench is cute, but unfortunately, it fell short for me. It was delivered in a box with a huge tear and the product itself has a gash in the wood from some issue with shipping. Also, one end of the bench has two unfinished sides, so that instead of being white in the front, it is brown and rough. Very unsatisfied with this.
For the price, this is a wonderful little storage bench. I wanted this for a small area where we put on and take off our boots in the winter. It is perfect for our needs. Aside from that, the price was very reasonable, the quality was good. It went together perfectly with easy to understand directions and illustrations, and it is very sturdy. Bonus is you can store things in the drawers too!! Very happy with this purchase.
Small piece was broken when arrived, but that part is hidden when assembled so just went with it. Other than that easy to assemble and looks good for the price.

Have a seat
Very sturdy.. Easy to put together took about 20 minutes. Better than i thought it would be.
Great overall, but arrived slightly damaged

Solid bench
We didnt know what to expect. It is solid so my husband can sit on it. We really like it.
Damaged
Small dent in mine
Be weary of shipping and overall condition!
