Review on πŸͺ‘ Optimized: Ameriwood Home Penelope Entryway Storage Bench - Espresso Finish with Cushion by Seth Singh

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like it. good for storage benches

I really like the style and color of the bench but ran into a few things that pissed me off. Part of the final scrub. It offers some protection, but not enough to adequately prevent damage to such a weak material.* although it took a while since I'm slow (took me about an hour). However, the eccentric bolts they send out are the weakest material in the world. Each of them fell off as soon as they started penetrating the tree, and they did so with the help of a perfectly fitting screwdriver. In fact, unlike most of the furniture I've ordered lately, the holes were lined up so it was nice. It comes with all necessary screws and parts, no extra parts, so don't break or lose them during assembly. The package did not include a Phillips screwdriver, which is the only tool needed for assembly.* QUALITY: Most of the bench is made from chipboard, but the base is a cardboard cutout. Nowhere in the description is this mentioned. photo attached. All visible parts of the bench are finished except for the edges of the cardboard backing. Because it's chipboard held together with a few screws, don't let fat people sit on it or let kids jump on it. Sit carefully or it will fall apart. You also can't see it in promotional photos, but it has 4 rubber feet on the bottom that help protect your hardwood floors, which is nice. *COLOR: The espresso color is accurate and matches all my other furniture and espresso items. .* MISCELLANEOUS: The cushion comes with two velcro strips on the bottom that have a sticky velcro strip attached that can be peeled off and attached to the seat to hold the cushion in place. The pillow appears to be white in the ad, but it's a light cream color. Although not very noticeable. In general, I like the bank and I will leave it. I would probably even buy another one. Just look out for missing parts like cardboard base, cheap materials (cam screws), and poor packaging.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • too silly
