This is an excellent value! It looks very good and is quite sturdy when properly assembled.
Its a combination of solid hardwoods and engineered wood panels with real wood veneers. Engineered wood panels are very commonly used in furniture, and they provide a very stable core for use with decorative wood veneers. Theres nothing wrong with good quality engineered wood panels when properly utilized in construction, which is certainly the case with this piece.
I consider the color to be medium-dark and reddish-brown. I love that the hinges will hold the bench tops in the open position. There is plenty of storage for hats, gloves and scarves. The bottom of the storage area is not super heavy duty, so dont plan on hiding your gold in there, but there are ventilation holes so your hats wont get too musty.
Excellent for the Price
