This bench is sturdy without looking bulky. I liked that it didn't scream "hey I'm made if plastic!" Like other patio/outdoor storage bench. Like anything directions were a little hard to read, but I found a flyer in the box for virtual directions, which would have helped me. Overall it took me and my husband around 30 minutes to get it together. Everything snapped nicely in place.

I bought 3 and 3 of them have broken parts!! I saw also someone going to the store with the same one, i asked him what was the problem he said broken parts!! Realy the worst experience.

5 of the main parts had cracks in the plastic, some of which were in critical areas. So in my opinion the quality control was very lacking or nonexistent. At half the price it would be a waste.

Do NOT buy! CHEAP. The pieces were not clean and smooth. The backrest for the bench was split on both sides. The seat does not close completely. Very unhappy with this purchase. I'm hoping to get one season out of it, but not holding my breath.

Very difficult to assemble. Many screw holes out of line and as well as frame. it looks great in the picture but is very time consuming getting there.

I was very satisfied with the quality of this product. All parts were in box, directions & pictures were easy to follow to assemble. I am storing my outdoor cushions in it, & they have remained dry.

So far I really like the bench, but I am alittle concerned that the appearance will not stand up. Specifically I am concerned about fading/degradation of appearance. Only time will tell. I would buy this product again based on current evaluation.

Good sturdy bench, easy to put together and nice looking. Downside is storage compartment is not water tight and there is no quick drainage to get the water out.

This storage bench is garbage. I’m afraid to sit on it and I’m not a extremely large person. It isn’t water proof either. It was difficult to put together and has a piece broken out of it from trying to fit together.

They were faded on the bottom. I order two because we needed two, one of them was missing parts. One of them had two left pieces instead of a left and a right piece. Very poor quality.
