Achla Designs 125-0003 Backless, 4 ft Natural Finish Bench, 48-in L

I tend to be fussy, but find I like everything about this bench. Well made. Great, simple lines. Nice color & finnish. Fair price. A lot to like! Perfect as a seat to take off and put on shoes in our back entryway.

...modularly componentized, sustainably crafted, securely packaged, & easily assembled.The feng shui of this piece fits neatly into our decor--a very loose use of thisterm--comprising Zen Japanese, La Mixteca, Burkina Fasoan, & Contemporary.Pleasing touches:1) Contrary to a couple previous reviews, the finish on my bench wastactilely smooth. If u feel that the bench needs some help, use220 grit sandpaper, and tryout 1st on an area under the bench seaton the inside of the supporting frame to ensure the desired results.2) Clear, simple, useful assembly instructions, especiallyif u don't know where a lock washer is positioned--now u do!3) All tools included, namely one, a wrench. However, tossit in the recycling bin and use a 14mm socket wrench.4) The bolts on the legs are pre-driven, are of hi-quality,and are protected by an easily removed thick plastic sleeve.5) The bolts snug, to my tolerance, w/2-3mm exposed!When was the last time u saw that! Usually bolts on moststuff--which means from China--has a couple of inchesof exposed jagged hazard waiting to slice open a calf muscle.6) Included is +1 extra of each hardware component!And hardware comes in a protective box, inside a heavy-duty,recyclable bag, that is attached to the external packagingto safely secure the bag-o-hardware in shipping! Did i fallthru a tear in the fabric of the space/time continuum?7) Eco-love, the wood used for the bench is sourced from"certified ...well-managed forests". see FSCUS.ORG.Bonus note: Contrary to the MAIN image on the itempage,*no* L-brackets--look thru the slates on either end ofthe bench in the image--are used in construction of the bench.Hey, have a seat, put your feet up, & kick it to the curb!

This was overall a very good buy! I'm slowly renovating my bathroom, and I needed a place to sit and change before, and after, the shower. This simple, "zen", natural-looking bench seemed perfect! It came mostly assembled, except for bolting on the legs. They even threw in the little wrench to tighten the nuts on the bolts. My quibbles? The first was partly my fault, and partly the lighting in the pictures: it is MUCH darker than I thought. For some reason, I thought it would come closer to matching my bamboo mat. It doesn't (see picture). I guess I'd been looking at other, lighter, (far more expensive) benches on Amazon, and in my mind saw "similar". My second quibble is even more minor: one of the included lock-washers was different sized, and too small (see second photo). Luckily, they include 1 extra of everything, so it ended up not mattering!Overall, I'm very pleased with the quality, sturdiness, and appearance (despite the color--I'm too fussy). For the price, compared to similar ones available on Amazon, I give this bench a 5-star thumbs up!

Beautiful design and solidly built. Great, rich color, but the wood was nicked and scraped in several places due, I think, to the lack of padding in the box.

This is a great bench. The perfect size for my atrium. It came very well-packed and I was able to assemble it in less than 15 min. without help. Comfortably sits two along with our fur babies.

Pretty much matches and compliments our other acacia wood furniture. Is sturdy, yet not too heavy. Clear instructions— took about 8 minutes. Well designed. Would recommend!!

The media could not be loaded.  We purchased this bench for our newly constructed outdoor shower. It was the perfect addition to the space. It was easy to put together and sturdy.

Solid wood, no veneers, nice color and grain. The only assembly required is attaching each of the four legs with two nuts and washers. Perfect item for my bathroom, at a great price.

Easy to put together. Seems strong and sturdy. I put it outside we will see how it holds up in the weather. But its been through a few rain storms and its doing well.

Great outdoor bench! Good quality wood, sturdy and very easily assembly. It came with all the hardware needed to assemble including the wrench. Highly recommend.

Great bench. Easy to put together. Simple , comfortable just what I wanted

It is an exact match to the semi-circle tree bench I bought elsewhere, so I am very happy with the look. Like that other purchase, the actual product is stained dark brown, and so is not a lighter, more natural colour as it appeared on the website. It is very easy to assemble. I had to shim a leg as one corner rides high and so it wobbles. The slats are slightly curved so comfortable to sit on. They are a little thin but took the weight of me and my husband.

This smallish outdoor bench is excellently well-built. All I had to do was attach the legs. The top of the bench arrived in one piece very well packaged in a heavy-duty corrugated box. The screws, nuts and bolts were so well inserted already to make my work of attaching the legs so much easier. It fits exactly as I wanted it to in a small triangular corner of my porch -- backless so that it fits under a window that opens out. It is made of excellent quality wood and the craftsmanship was also well worth the price. I love i! Be sure to buy the Minwax Teak OIl for Teak to protect the bench if you intend to leave it outside all year round, as I do.
