Broadway Black Cubbie Bench

My daughter needed something for storage along a slanted second story wall. This is the perfect low height to fit her needs. It is obviously not solid wood, but that's what keeps the price down and makes it affordable. The pressboard is good, solid construction and the black painted finish looks very nice. The cubbies give her lots of storage and she also uses the top with book ends as a book shelf. She and her dad put it together in about an hour without too much trouble. I would definitely recommend this as a good, low-cost, and attractive storage option.

I bought this piece to match the wall shelf and they look beautiful together in our entryway/hallway! Especially for the money! It arrived fast and was easy to put together; especially after reading all of the comments prior to purchasing the piece. I found baskets to put into the cubbies, but am having a bit of trouble finding the right sized cushion. Other than that, we are extremely happy with our purchase!

The instructions need to be much clearer and parts labeled accordingly. The plastic dowels do not fit into the pre-drilled holes and after taking a hammer into one side, the only way to attach it to the other wood panel is to strike the panel into the dowel. This does not make sense and this is what I was informed to do after seeking advice from the manufacturer. The supporting panel then cracked in the middle and now I am having to wait AGAIN for delivery of this and hope it will not crack again. Quite dissappointed and frustrated.

The bench serves my purpose very well. I could even put it together. I bought 3 baskets to put in the cubic holes and it looks very nice to hid my stuff. I do recommend it.. I use it as a coffee table. I only gave it a 4 because it took me quite awhile to put it together because I had never put anything like this before.
