Putting this piece together was pretty easy until it came to the doors. I would suggest adding the doors earlier than the instructions suggest. Specifically before you attach the bottom portion of the bench. Assembly would be much better if the parts were labeled. If assembled properly you can sit on it. I wouldnt recommend just sitting on it and relaxing. You can sit on the toilet and eat but I wouldnt recommend it. All in all, this was a fun piece to put together. The quality for the money is rather good. No particle board very sturdy and strong. If I needed another one I would definitely purchase this one again. But thankfully I dont need another.
Customer service was wonderful as we encountered several issues: doors did not fit and my husband had to plane down one then adjust a hole. Another door was marred and we requested a replacement. That arrived very quickly and fit. So, if you are handy and can adjust where needed, this a really nice piece of furniture. If not, you may end up frustrated. My hubs is very handy (engineer by trade, do-it all homeowner by passion) and it wasnt a huge issue. Love the look and sturdiness of the piece despite the handsome extra work.
The product looks good. But It easily gets scratches during assembly. You will notice the scratches when you see it closely. But it doesnt show up from a distance, so works well for me.
The package was delivered ahead of schedule, it was packed very sturdy with protective styrofoam, it unpacked easily, assembled easily and quickly with the simple instructions, it turned out to be an attractive, sturdy piece of furniture with three great quality baskets and a comfy pad. The color is very nice. No scratches or dents. Very happy with my purchase. Now to break down the box!
Baskets were a pain to assemble. The cabinet was easy to put together. First step of instructions was wrong though, so I had to take it apart and re-do part of it. Overall, Im happy with how it turned out and how it fits in my space.
It is a pinch shorter than I would like, but one piece was cut wrong and they immediately send a replacement piece that fit and have use the bench all the time.
This storage bench fits perfectly in the small entryway to my condo.
It fits 4 pairs of my street shoes and 2 pairs of snow/hiking boots.
Not sure how well it would hold up with a lot of family use but for me its just fine.
This product arrived in PERFECT CONDITION. Its just the right size and look for our mudroom. Feels sturdy and is a good height for putting on boots, and has storage for gloves and hats. There was one incorrect step to assemble, but easily figured it out. Adding felt to the bottom of the storage baskets as they may scratch the paint.

Sturdy, classy but..

Good product but instructions are lacking simplicity
I like the sturdiness but it took way too much time to assemble.

Thise was easy to put together but the baskets are a 2 people job.
