The bench was not easy to put together, the instructions could have been clearer. Reading the previous reviews were misleading as they said it was easy to put together, there are gaps and the screws don’t go in that easy. On the plus side it arrived very quick.

looks nice when assembled; however the tonges were too big to enable easy screwing without going through the sides, which pushed the adjoining parts away from each other...i would replace these with much smaller round dowels, perhaps, which would then leave more room either side of these to screw into a bigger area of wood...also the seat part underside is slightly too long (the two end cross pieces need moving in slightly) which means that screwing the seat and ends to-gether with-out gaps is virtually impossible

Very flimsy, rough wood. Needed sanding and painting to look ok. Don’t think it will weather well, or last long

My grandfather was a cabinet maker and although l have not inherited his skills l have inherited his critical eye. Some of the joints are not pretty. However it is for outside use so it is acceptable. It appears to be strong and robust.

Some very poor joints which leave gaps and the uprights forming the sides don't line up with the arms. I'm going to have to sand these mismatches down to make the bench presentable...... Poor quality control I think! Also, the dowels used to fix the backrest slats in position look awful!
