Bench is as shown-- is extremely sturdy and looks great. True story about the storage baskets below being too small though-- they will not fit size 11+ mens shoes. I wear 12 and not even my sandals fit in the baskets.
No big deal though- my wife has small feet so she uses the baskets while I use the top shelf for 4 pairs of my shoes.
If the baskets concern you, find two large baskets to simply replace the three smaller ones. Other than that its a great bench and folks will comment at both its looks and durability.
Great shoe bench
