I ordered this bench for our front window, because my dog likes to jump up and see out and she was ruining the paint on our woodwork by jumping up. I decided to go with the Berry color and it looks great. The color looks very much like the picture sort of a maroon color. The fabric is a nice velvet type upholstery. It is not cheap microfiber, and my bench had no blemishes. The legs are black and not what I would think of as mahogany, but they look great on the bench.
The Bench came in a big box in plastic, with the legs and washers in a separate box, all in good condition. It took me just a few minutes to screw the legs on and place it in front of the window where I wanted it. The dimensions were slightly different than what is in the listing but it still is ok with me. The height of the seat says it is 18 but I measured it and it is 16. The arms come up further for a total height of 22.5. The space at the bottom from floor to bottom of the seat is 6.5 This is perfect clearance if you have a heat vent on the floor like I do. The depth from front to back of the seat is 17.5 which is uniform from seat to arms. The total width from widest part of the arms is 44, If you measure the width at the bottom just above where the legs are attached you get 41.5. Just the actual seat width is 33 wide.
I can sit on the seat with my dog next to me comfortably. I think it would hold two children, and adult and a child or two smaller adults. It seems quite sturdy and comfortable. As far as how it looks, I absolutely love it. I paid just over $100, and feel its great quality for the price.
Thanks for reading my review
