Update 6-16-22
I reupholstered the bench and it turned out great! Very easy to do. I used a flathead since I couldnt find my staple remover. The black liner underneath was salvageable, so I did not replaced. Just bought some fabric from Joann and now theres no more ugly brown color! See my photo.

This arrived as a box inside a large box. I give them an A for trying to make sure no damage was inflicted upon the box, therefore possibly damaging the product. Unfortunately, it still came with some scratches. It seems like it chips easily. Thankfully the chipped parts are in an inconspicuous location. This bench was an upgrade from my last one that held the same amount of shoes, but no bench. It was very easy to assemble using the instructions. Most of the screws and components came with one extra. The drawer opens and closes very well and everything is aligned. The only thing I don’t like is the brown seat. It doesn’t match my decor, however I knew that when I ordered it. My plan is to reupholster the seat. If I do, I’ll post an update.
