This is a beautiful wooden bench with carving that is rich without having a slavishly period look. It arrived in unimpaired condition, required no assembly, and is fairly easy for a woman to move from place to place. I like that it doubles as a storage unit; Overstock has many such items. My only reservation is the cushioning, which has a small cross-hatch pattern that is neither apparent in the picture nor mentioned, so far as I know, in any of the reviews. I would have preferred an unpatterned fabric. This is a matter of taste, of course, and would not disturb many, but I think it should be made clear. I nonetheless love the piece and never considered returning it.

The cushion top carved trunk/Bench was a good buy and a very parctical and durable trunk bench. The bench is confortable to sit on, and it also has nice storage space. Since I put this Trunk/Bench in a bedroom, I enclose the beadspread and decorative pillows inside the trunk. . The best part is that nothing had to be assembled.. I will just add to this feedback the color of the cushion is off white (cream) with a pattern of small dots/ tone on tone which is not visable on this web site. However, I found the small pattern to add dimension to this bench. It looks very pretty. I loved it so much that I purchased two of them.

This is a great addition to my bedroom. I have a traditional art deco type dresser and sideboard. The color of the bench matches and blends in with those items beautifully. It's nice to have somewhere to sit to put on shoes, socks, etc. It is a gorgeous piece and comfortable to sit on. Storage is enough for extra blankets and decorative pillows. Highly recommend this one!

This is a gorgeous trunk. The only thing I wish were better, is the bottom of the inside. It is a thin board that. I hope it can support some weight. I would buy it again though.

We ordered this bench to go in our mud room. We sit on it to put our winter boots on. The storage is ample and we use it to contain summer or winter things in depending on the season. We receive lots of compliments, too. It is well padded and just a nice piece. It could almost pass for an antique. It goes with all our other furniture. They pack everything so carefully that it arrived in perfect condition, not a scratch or ding on it! This company packages everything so it always arrives without a scratch! We have ordered many ceramic planters and they arrive without a nick in perfect shape. Their quality control is excellant, we have never sent anything back! I highly recommend this product!!!

I was impressed with the looks of the trunk but was less than impressed when I opened the lid and found that it would not stay open - there is something wrong with the hinges that they will not lock open - this will have to be attended to. So if you order this trunk you will need to be a little handy unless the hinges on the one I bought are just lemons.

• How did the color on site compare with the actual product? The wood color was good, but the material on the bench was more yellow than white.
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. The quality seems good and looks very nice.

It serves the purpose it was intended for and the size is good.

I bought this for a wedding present and it was well received by the bride and groom as well as their parents so it appealed to multiple age groups with a lot of different styles. The bride was ultra modern in her home and she thought it fit perfect.

I am remodeling our master bath and hope to use this chest for storing towels near the shower. It is just big enough to sit down without taking up a lot of space. It seems to be well made although I have not had it long enough to see if it stands up to a moist environment.

The item arrived MUCH faster than expected. Just as all other reviews stated it was well packaged inside of 2 boxes for added protection. I didn't think it was going to be as big as it is according to the measurements so I was well pleased with its size, quality and price. I found this same item on other sites for $50 more and up. I am very satisfied with this product in all areas. I would definitely recommend to anyone that is considering purchasing it to go for it!!!

This product arrived within days of placing the order. It was packaged well so there were no blemishes. The quality is very good. I like that the lid stays up on its own. This bench is small though. It is lower than our bed. Be sure to take note of the dimensions. All together, a good buy.

Having read many positive reviews for this item, I decided to give it a shot. One thing about ordering from Overstock.com is they don't exclude negative reviews, so I felt confident I would be satisfied with this trunk. And I was rather amazed at just how much this trunk did indeed match the photo and description on the website. It's a bargain for what you get -- very well constructed and carved handsomely. The cushion top is beautifully covered and nicely firm. I couldn't be more pleased!

We purchased this trunk as a wedding present for our son and new daughter-in-law, and put a couple fluffy blankets in it. They were thrilled with it, and it could easily become an heirloom. The gorgeous carvings are very rich looking and the warm finish is high quality. The style is versatile enough to use in any room for added seating and storage. As other reviewers have stated, it came doubleboxed with extra padding and arrived in excellent condition, just five days after ordering. After looking at several other trunks, this was by far the best value and looks like we spent many times our money. Thank you again Overstock!

Chest is very pretty. Heavily padded seat with great hinges that hold it up. Very much worth the money.

We are very happy with this bench. It arrived within a week, double boxed and well protected! The cushion has protective plastic over it. Not a mark or scratch on it! Thanks!

I purchased the bench to hold pillows and shams from the bed. The cushion top trunk was a little smaller than I invisioned but I am most pleased with it. The detailing on the woodwork is very nice.

Arrived just as ordered. New trunk/bench just like the picture indicated. Great value.
