I use these as entry benches (flanking my front door), and they are sturdy as well as nice-looking. My original pair was from Wayfair, and they were rickety from the start, then broke altogether 2 years later. I then endeavored to get real furniture that would be sturdier, so I turned to Pier One (after places like Raymour didnt have anything the right size). Twice the Pier One pieces arrived broken--and they didnt look so nice to begin with (though they were narrow enough to fit in the spaces flanking my door. Finally I turned to (yes) and found these. They are nicer than either the Wayfair or the Pier One benches, and they seem terrific so far. I am thrilled. Plus, the company was very responsive when I asked a question. Thumbs up!
superior to Pier One (and Wayfair)
