    This is a great addition to my entryway. My son keeps his shoes in one of the baskets. Now my entryway is not cluttered, but his shoes are right there for when we get ready to leave the house.

    For parents this is a must have item. The storage bins really make this product. Additionally I like the style. I have 3 children and they all get to have their own storage, plus it really looks classy. It's just right. I will that it is a little heavy, but you need the weight for stability.
    -- This is an excellent product --

    Love this product. The only drawback is the sturdy baskets scratch the finish when they are pulled in and out.

     
    Stylish, Sturdy & Great for the mudroom
    By PrinceVerified Reviewer from Coopersburg, PA on 1/11/2008
    Pros:
    Attractive Design, Easy to Assemble, Easy to Move, Sturdy
    Cons:
    Uncomfortable seat height

    This mahogany stained bench adds a very good functional and stylish design element to our recently painted mudroom. In addition to the obvious use as a seat when changing shoes, the bench top work's great as a temporary holding/staging area for incoming and outgoing packages. Furthermore, the bins, which have a sturdy metal frame, are easily used by our children to store their gloves, hats, scarves, etc. As a result, we have many fewer issues with misplaced outdoor wear.

    We found the bench and the bins to be sturdy and well constructed (which is a very good compliment for RTA furniture). We also found the bench to be easy to assemble. However, we had issues assembling the bins due to poor clearance between the bin sides and bottom, which in turn, caused poor screw/hole alignment at the connecting points.

    While we like the overall characteristics of the bench, the only feature/performance characteristic that we particularly dislike is the seat height, which is ~20.5". This height is ~2" higher than most fixed height chairs. As such, unless we're just resting on the edge of the seat, we (I'm 5'10") find it somewhat uncomfortable to use.

    This is a nice piece of furniture. We purchased it, along with the shelf, for our hallway. Both look great! The only complaint is the directions - the pictures weren't 100% clear, so I had to take it apart and re-assemble at one point...

    I purchased this bench and the coat rack and the pair is wonderful. I have two boys, three if you count the husband, who all tend to dump everything when they walk in the door. Now they "dump" all their stuff in their basket - - shoes, backpack etc. Hooray my foyer isn't as cluttered

    Bought this bench to put at the end of the bed. Great, sturdy piece of furniture, great storage. The honey color was not exactly what I expected. It was more orangey than I thought - that's the only negative.

    Pros:
    Comfortable, Durable, Good Color Scheme, Solid Construction

    Cushion selection limited

    Bottom Line:
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    This bench is in the laundry/mudroom where all our shoes would cover the floor. Now, everyone gets there own basket and all shoes are stored away! I put this together myself and it was easy and fast. It looks like something you would buy at a furniture store. The only negative was that the selection of cushion fabric was very limited and I ended up spending more on the cushion somewhere else!
