I really like the modern look and versatility of this outdoor bench. It works well for sturdy seating on the patio, in the garden or as a plant stand. Assembly was straightforward and didn’t take too long. The only reason I didn’t give a higher rating is because one of the metal boards on the top lifted from the base after only a few days in the sun. It’s not a piece I can tighten down because it arrived attached. I guess the factory glue didn’t work well. I’m going to try reattaching it with Gorilla glue, and if that doesn’t work, I’ll reach out to customer service.

Solid outdoor bench. Assembly was fast and easy. The top part of the bench feels solid and heavy duty. The legs are hollow and feel light and thin. Usage over time will tell if the legs can handle the weight. I reserve my recommendations for this product after we've put this to use.

Absolutely love this bench. It's in a 'blank slate' spot right now, but I have plans to use it to put some potted plants of varying sizes on, and it is definitely going to be sturdy enough to hold them based on the quality of the aluminum. It also came extremely well packaged - and took about 5 minutes to put together. Would highly recommend this for your garden areas or for any seating needs.
