Milano Chocolate Bicast Leather Storage Bench

This bench is perfect! It is a very dark espresso color and is much nicer than in the picture. Looks great at the end of my king size bed. It is one of the taller benches that I have been able to find and I have been looking for a while. It is also deeper than others I have found so it is great for storage. The stitching is the same color as the "leather". The price is great compared to other benches I have found. My 7 year old son and I put the legs on in 10 minutes.

I am completely satisfied with the quality of this bench. The leather is very lustrous. The size of it is very adequate for the foot of my king size bed. The storage is enormous. It is very sturdy and we have pulled into our living room to accommodate additional seating when large numbers of company come over. It really matches our brown leather sofa and chair. It could be a little more padded on the top but overall it has everything I was looking for. I saw on line at other stores for a higher price. A must say if you are looking for a quality and expensive looking piece of furniture for a great price get this bench. I was a little afraid when it showed up because the box was quite a bit rough with tears but the bench remained in tact with no defects. I love the way the hinges stay open for you while you fill the bench with storage. You don't have to keep opening it. May consider getting another just to have in the living room and keep this one in my bedroom. The height is also perfect for sitting on to put your shoes or to rest.

I love the product until I had for a few years and the top portion began to peel and crack not attractive at all and for the price I would have believed the bench would have lasted a lifetime but hasn't. I love the leather and the depth of the storage area, however just disappointed that the top section didnt hold up. I had it now for 6 years and it's peeling even more might get rid of it.

I read almost all the reviews on this storage bench and decided to click on the BUY button because the majority of the reviews were 5 stars, the bench was large and higher than most, and the color was perfect. It arrived within the delivery estimated schedule and on a very rainy day. We live in a second floor apartment and why I was concerned whether it could be delivered without someone on my end to get it upstairs as it weighs between 75 and 85 pounds. My worries were for nothing as the delivery man carried it up rather easily. Did I mention it was raining? Well the exterior packaging was damaged in several places and was very wet. I wondered if I should request the delivery guy wait while I opened and inspected the storage bench for damage. It was during the Christmas season and the delivery men were making three deliveries a day at our complex so I signed the ticket and prayed for the best. Again, my worries were unfounded as I removed the exterior badly damaged and very wet boxing, the storage bench was wrapped in styrofoam and had a wood platform the base of the bench rested on. There was not one scratch or blemish on the bench. It is beautiful. I added the feet which took all of 10 minutes for this female senior and am very happy with this particular storage bench. I did order a cushion that is a perfect fit in length and width which raises the bench another couple of inches. I use this bench for storage and for extra seating in our living room (TV table legs slide right under the opening so the table can be brought up close when eating) when we have guests. Yes! I am a very satisfied Overstock customer with this purchase!
