"Once assembled, a good quality bench. However, the assembly was very troublesome. There are only six main bolts to assemble but this was not possible with two of them as the holes had been drilled inaccurately. In one case the hole for the bolt was not deep enough to allow the bolt through to the chamber for the nut. In the other the hole into the chamber was not central enough to allow the nut to align with the bolt. I had to use a drill to correct the issues. It took some time, around 3 hours, to work out what was wrong and correct the problems. So all in all I am very disappointed by some issues that could have been avoided by some simple quality control."

"I'd say that this is just about acceptable for the price, but no better than that. At £149 this sounds like a bargain, but I find it hard to believe that this really is Grade A teak. Parts of the bench I received are very variable in colour. Maybe it will look better when it has weathered a bit. And despite what the description on the website implies, the fixtures are not brass. They are steel with brass-coloured plating. That said, the bench was not too difficult for one person to assemble, and when put together it is very rigid and seems sturdy. It just doesn't look very good, and unfortunately is not very comfortable to sit on either. Overall, despite the reasonable price, I'm a bit disappointed with it. If mine is a typical example, I certainly wouldn't recommend it."
