Im writing this review just 30 minutes after putting together the bench by myself. First off, its very sturdy--much more sturdy than I expected for the low price that I paid (roughly $71 tax). The filagreed back piece is wrought iron and very heavy while the remainder of the body and legs are molded metal. First off: its simply impossible to screw in the bolts w/ the flimsy tools provided. You will need a wrench or pliers to hold the nut in place while screwing in the bolts. This is the only reason while I took off a star. Otherwise, this bench is a great deal for the price, especially given the free Prime shipping that came w/ it. I live in a northeastern city and this bench now sits outside my little row home. Its perfect.
Great sturdy bench for price
