Title: Nice Piece of Furniture
Review: This is a really nice bench. It was packed well (pic). It came early. All the pieces were labeled and they gave you one extra of all the hardware(pics). I put it together by myself. The finish is beautiful and matches my decor. I ordered the 36” because I didn’t want my bedroom to feel crowded, but I have to admit that it’s smaller than I imagined. The inside is divided into two compartments. I have a queen sized summer blanket folded up and stored in one side to give you an idea of the size (pic). You can fit a blanket or pillow, games or some clothes in the other side. It looks beautiful, serves my purpose, they thought of everything for assembly, and nicely priced. Simpli Home gets an A+. I would order from them again. Oh, it did have one ding in it but thankfully it was on the back. I still love it.

Title: Very Cute, but…
Review: It was easy to put together, nice quality and good value, but it’s so short and looks like children’s furniture!in my entryway. My husband will build a platform for it and bring it up and hopefully that will help. We were pleasantly surprised with everything else!

Title: Great piece of furniture
Review: From the moment this product arrived in my house I was impressed. The Amazon delivery man was kind enough to carry it into the house for me. It was packed very well. Lots of reenforced edging and corners. The box was damaged in one spot but because of the wonderful packaging the damage wasn’t able to reach the product. All the pieces were intact. The bundle that held all the hardware was labeled very well. Even though the company gives you extra hardware, none was needed. Everything was there. As I unpacked all the pieces I made sure to examine everything. No issues to be found. I was able to put the bench together myself (solo). It only took me one hour and 30 minutes. Let me tell you that I am 69 years old with arthritic hands and a bad hip. It took some ingenuity to prop up some pieces for the proper angle to screw some pieces together. I am very pleased with how it looks in my home. Definitely a quality piece of furniture.P.S. It will be used as a toy box for my grandchildren. That is why I wanted the seat to prop open and not fall down on those tiny precious fingers.

Title: Disappointed
Review: Looks pretty nice overall but there were no pre-drilled holes for the lid support. This is mostly made of wood but the lid is definitely not and you can’t really drill holes to support the lid. This causes the lid to slam. Not true to size at all and not sturdy. Too large to take down and send back. Height looks like it was made for children!

Title: GREAT BENCH!
Review: WOW! 1) Love the color and style 2) perfect width for my entry 3) love the side/hand rails so older people are able to get up easier 3) storage is great 4) very sturdy! even has a reinforcement piece in the center on the bottom 5) easy to assemble! my husband and i assembled together in about a half hour. instructions were EASY to follow, each piece was labeled with a letter properly (8 pieces) and the hardware came packaged individually in little bags labeled with numbers so we didn’t have to sort through 7 different kinds of screws to figure out which ones we were using. also came with extra hardware – I am very impressed with this bench, even my husband didn’t complain because the instructions were well written (for once!) and it was easy to assemble.

Title: could have been 5 stars
Review: For the price, this is a very attractive piece and is well made. Packaging was excellent and it arrived unharmed. Included were some spare hardware parts, which is nice. My biggest issue is that the screws are not well made and when attaching the strut that holds the lid up, both of the upper screws sheared off once they were almost all the way into the predrilled holes. This left me with a screw body protruding with no head on it. The metal was not hard enough to allow me to grab with pliers and turn it out, so I had to chip away enough to get a solid grip and turn it out. Then I had to repair with wood putty and put in my own higher quality screws.One other thing is the darn stickers on the wood don’t peel off cleanly. One of my pet peeves and a real annoyance that is unnecessary.I would have given it 5 stars if it were not for this, unforgivable, issue. Cutting corners on the screws makes me wonder how the rest will hold up.I will probably beef up the floor of the bench as it’s somewhat flimsy, but unless you’re tossing boots in there, there’s probably no need to do this.

Review: basically I just received this entry way & its cheaply made but of course it was also cheap in price. so you definitely get what you pay for. pay more (double) for quality. I’d give this entryway about 3 years before it breaks. its in a mudroom with heavy use. this is no disrespect to the company. they took great care in their packing of the bench & there was nothing wrong with the parts when they arrived. its just a cheap feel piece that was actually cheap in price. so again I cant give it a bad rating because you cant get quality wood solid furniture for the price they are charging & I didn’t know that until now.

Review: Great bench, but the description said no assembly required. You do have to put it together. It is a sturdy and nice looking bench though.

Review: Malgré un problème de qualité , je dois avouer que le service à la clientèle d’Amazone à été d’un professionnalisme hors pair. La communication avec le vendeur et le fabriquant a été extrêmement rapide. Le vendeur (Cymax) et le fabriquant (Simpli-Home) ont toys les deux offert un rabais pour dédommagement. J’ai été agréablement surpris de l’entente entre nous. Bravo à vous 2 pour votre suivi après vente.
