A little bit of a challenge to assemble, which is why I rated 4 stars, but overall the bench is EXCELLENT, sturdy and a great addition to our decor.

not antique white but nice bench
When I opened the box to assemble this bench I was shocked at how yellow it was. It was not going to match anything in my house so I painted it. It looks 100 times better. Aside from that it feels very sturdy

    Like the other reviews have said, this is definitely not a cream color or even what could be described as "antique white." This is a buttery yellow with a greenish tinge. It works fine with me since my multi-color rug has yellows and greens in it but if you are hoping that this will match something you already have I would seriously doubt it. The installation wasn't too bad - it's super heavy though and there are stages that you will definitely need a second person to help hoist and hold while you line up all of the pieces. It looks like some of the issues in the previous reviews dealt with dowels and glue, but mine did not come with any dowels or glue. The majority of the installation is done with screws and cam bolts. Once you get the hang of them it's pretty simple. My instructions were better than described as well but I will warn people against reading what's online as it doesn't seem entirely accurate. Use the instructions that come with it and take your time and it will come out just fine. The cushion cover we got was a rattan/twine color, not white as shown. Again, that's fine for our needs but may not be what someone else may expect.

      It's a decent piece of furniture. However, the "antique white" is more of a "sickly banana" color. I haven't gotten around to painting it yet, but I definitely will at some point.

        We didn't get to put it together till after Christmas and we were unhappy to find that each inset on the front and left side had a scratch like gouge on them - seemed like a factory issue or packaging possibly - my husband said it seemed like package was already opened and then closed up

        This is a solid piece of furniture, mainly wood, with lots of room inside the bench. It's nicer than the picture shows. We use it at the end of our bed, store blankets & pillows in it. Nice & long, designs are very pretty. Love the color, love everything! I can think of many places it could fit into your household. If you're looking for a bench that's high quality, this is it.

        The bench is solid, but the color is an odd green/yellow. And mine was missing the block that holds the lever for the lid.

        This is not Antique White - it is light mustard. The 3 cabinet doors have scratches on them and it is difficult to put together. I received it a while back and it still sits in my living room waiting to be assembled. Hopefully I get it done by Christmas.

        The color isn’t even close to antique white. It is pea green. Would have returned had I not bought it on clearance. Which was likely why it was on clearance.

        Difficult to assemble. Dimensions include the 4" feet, and there is a lip on the top of the storage areas (for the bench top to rest on) that makes it difficult to get larger items in and out. Also, I’m not sure what the color is. Light greenish yellow maybe but definitely not antique white.

        Super easy to put together. Very sturdy and well made! The arm thing that goes on the lid was missing a piece or I lost it when I was unpacking the pieces but I think I like it better without it. The storage inside is separated into three different parts which makes it easy to organize!

        It's a nice sturdy bench w/ample storage space.The cushion is more comfortable than it looks. I'd read reviews about the difficulty of putting it together so I just had it sent to the store and called them to ask them to assemble it when it came in. They'll do that for free!

        Nice size. Sturdy. Two issues. 1) lid safety mechanism (last step) was stuck in the open position and had to uninstall it. 2) cushion was too short for the bench. The bench was already assembled (1.5hrs) when we noticed. The company wanted us to return the entire bench to replace the faulty parts.

        I expected more of an antique while, not yellow! Will eventually have to repaint it to match our Master Bedroom furniture! It's not even remotely white! Other then that it fit our needs for what we wanted it for.

        Just brought this bench home this evening, haven't put it together yet. This bench is definitely not ivory/white. It is a putrid cross between green and yellow, the pillow top is the only feature close to ivory. Whoever finished the bench did a horrible job, the paint is streaked and there are scratches. I am going to have to paint it or shabby chic to fix it. I have been looking for weeks to find a bench and this is the perfect style, the only reason I am not going to return it. So, if you don't mind fixing someone's mistakes and this is the style you want then it is recommended.
