Pros & Cons
Pros
Very nicely sanded and constructed and easy to assemble. Well made, sturdy. Assembled bench is sturdy and looks good.
We (i) like resting on it while drinking a beer and admiring my handiwork. Looks inviting in our recently re-landscaped back yard. It gets lots of compliments from visitors.
Re-drill all the pin holes to get about 1/16 inch more diameter. Do it manually with the elbow wrench that is provided. With a little patience and gently prying they fit together well.
A bit tricky on your own but doable. I'm a retired engineer so i have the ability to figure things out. Patience, two vice *.
I see others suggest attaching the legs last which i suspect has merit. Screw one of the leg arm rest assembly's to the back rest. The adjustable rubber coated feet screw in to the height you need.
Cons
Many clanps, a mallet hammer and more than an hour were required for assembling the bench. Misaligned dowel holes and metal dowels make for exceptionally difficult assembly. Some of the pegs were mounted at an angle rather than perpendicular.
Highlights
Quality
Very happy with the bench sturdy and comfortable
Great quality for the price it went together easy
I just finished applying the teak oil that i ordered with the product and i am totally disappointed with the result
3 the back support the side with the emblem faces backward
Price
I would definitely buy again and it is worth the price
Packaging/appearance
Packaging was good with no damage and all parts in the box
The packaging was first rate with reinforced corners and shrink wrap so nothing got scuffed or damaged
Other reviews talk about damage in shipping from poor packaging
Packaging arrived in really bad shape but product was not damaged and all hardware was there
Competitiveness
The finished bench deserves a fivestar rating but the difficulty of assembly makes it four stars
Got a torx socket set so that helps a lot

Having a helper to assemble would have been good as aligning the parts by myself was challenging

Gently put the pieces in and then screw togeather the topside then carefully flip the bench upright and set the screws that were on the bottom side piece

The directions for this bench are terrible
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
To make matters worse the holes and pins don’t line up a considerable amount of force and ingenuity was required to get the bench together
