Townsend Storage Bench, Seat Cushion, Black & Espresso

Not quite as big as I’d hoped for but it’s still able to store shoes and keep them out of the floor. Assembly is fairly simple all you need is a screw driver. Only giving 4 stars because it has a few minor scuffs but nothing a touch up pen can’t fix.

I love it! It looks good, it’s very functional and it makes the space look much nicer now that the shoes are organized. It fits perfectly into the space I needed it for and I’m surprised and how many of my daughters shoes can go inside. Just think, this area is where she would kick off her school shoes everyday and put on her play shoes or sandals. No matter how many times a week I made her clean it, it always ended up in a heaping pile of shoe mess within a few days. It was fairly quick and easy to assemble and it looks good. My daughter puts her shoes in effortlessly and I am no longer tripping over shoes in that area. The little cushioned bench adds an extra functionality because now she’s makes it her business to sit there to put on her shoes instead of sitting on the stairs and blocking them. I really do love it and so does my husband who hates clutter. So far, it feels very sturdy. For the price, I can’t complain at all!!!

I really like this shoe bench! Perfect for the entrance and looks nice. Some if the other reviews mentioned some of the panels looking very similar and i did accidentally put some if the shelves on the opposite side but the instructions were pretty clear too. Aside from my little mishap (i wasn't paying close attention), it really wasn't too diffcult.

The bench itself is fairly sturdy for the price; easy to assemble and the cubby holes work well for shoes. No complaints there.My biggest frustration was the cushion. The case was leaving black residue marks on anything that touched it. Imagine running your hand over the surface; your hand would be black like soot. Little black particles also shook off from it making it extremely messy. Not sure what was causing that so I tried to unzip and wash the cover but the fabric is so cheap it ripped. I ended up throwing it away, cleaning the remaining foam with soap/water to remove the black stains and reupholstering the cushion with fabric I bought from JoAnns.

I love it! it looks just as advertised. It was kind of easy to assemble and the slot fits most shoe as sneakers. When I read the reviews they complained so much about the cushion was terrible. It's really not! it's a decent cushion to sit on and remove your foot wear. Also, I added a piece of Velcro on each side to keep it from slipping off which it will do from time to time. This bench is very sturdy and I highly recommend this. I purchased this so guest can take off their shoe before walking thru my house. I went to the store and bought nice colorful slipper & comfy slide on rubber sandals for the guys in all in different sizes. I place them in the slots so when guest come they take a pair of slipper and slide their shoes in the same slot. I did for Easter and it was a big hit.
