Functional and looks nice. Cost effective.
I just finished assembling this bench. Everything fit together perfectly and it should work just fine for fairly light duty use. The bench looks nice and the instructions are quite good. The assembler needs to pay very close attention to the direction many parts are installed, but if you think about it, most of it is logical. It took me roughly 1.5 hours from unpacking to a finished bench. The shelves and top are pre-assembled and pinned together with what look like brass tacks. The wood is quite soft and light and I’m not very happy with the fact that many screws are being installed in end-grain, but that’s how it has to be. I increased strength in several areas by adding wood glue. Although the wood is stained, I personally will not be exposing this bench to weather and especially not rain. It will be an inside bench, as I don’t think it will stand up to much weather. Overall, you can’t make this bench from scratch for the price you’re paying. It’s worth the price and with care it will last a light-duty user a number of years.

Great little potting bench
Pros: Delivered early, affordable, great size for a narrow space, lots of nice storage (shelves and a drawer), relatively easy to assemble on my own (see Cons for more details), lightweight and easy to move once assembled. Overall, I’m really pleased with the look of it!Cons: due to the affordable price it’s not exactly high-end materials, lightweight balsa wood had some cracks before assembly, I am a visual processor so the instruction images worked fine for me but I can see these instructions possibly being a challenge for others. Some of the wood pieces did not line up the way the instructions said they would, which slowed down the assembly, but I was able to come up with a solution that worked for me. All of the wood pieces were supposed to have a little sticker with a number, which was not the case, but it was fairly easy to figure it out by process of elimination.I would buy this again.

Nice quality wood, well made. For the price, works well for me.
Well made and easy to assemble. Nice quality wood. Fits great on my back patio and there is plenty of room for a storage bin loaded with potting soil ready for my next task. Has 3 hooks to mount on side which holds my watering can and trowel. A sizeable storage drawer contains odds and ends including a small brush and pan to clean the surface when my tasks are done. Has a plastic sink without a drain that fits into the top work surface which is nice to be able to contain extra potting soil overspill. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the sink arrived cracked. I had contacted the seller who told me that apparently it is on backorder through the manufacturer and they promised to send a replacement when back in stock…that was 2 months ago. In the meantime I just made a temporary mend with duct tape on the underside to keep the crack from getting larger. For the price and quality, the bench is well worth it. I will see how well it holds up subjected to the elements outdoors in Florida.UPDATE: Received my replacement basin and all is fine now. Upgraded to 5 stars! Seller is great and kept me informed.

Follow the picture for easier assembly!!!
Great bench! Really strong and stable once assembled…..But very poor instructions….follow the picture.Check to be sure drawer slots are facing inwards but easy to have leg supports reversed…so check for proper leg assembly by fitting lower long shelf….I had them reversed but easy to move them. The lower long shelf fits if the legs are assembled correctly. The picture will keep you on the right track! Stain makes it look like an expensive piece of furniture and top with a clear coat of urethane to resist scratching.Only one piece started to crack (on the tall upper rack). Just backed out the screw and drove it in on a slight angle and that solved it.I have assembled a lot of office furniture and this is just as well built and all pieces fit as well as anything else I worked on.One more time…poor instructions but still worth 5 stars for the overall quality of the product. Yes it is quite lightweight but the bracing with sufficient lumber, bolts and screws all in the right place make the bench very sturdy. No I don’t work for the supplier….I’m just a happy customer.I could have purchased individual lumber pieces, probably with overkill 2 x 4 lumber legs and 5/8 plywood etc maybe for the same price and a lot more work but this isn’t a black smith’s bench..it is a potting bench!!

A good potting bench for light to moderate use.
If you are looking for a potting bench that will only see light or moderate use, and will be sheltered from direct exposure to the elements, then this bench will probably be fine for you. However, this is the reason I didn’t give the kit five stars, and I will be looking for a cover to place over it as mine will be exposed to the elements. Assembly was relatively easy and the instructions were very clear and simple to follow. I am experienced, so it only took me about an hour to put this together, but I think just about anyone could manage it in no more than two hours or so. All parts were clearly labeled/numbered, and hardware was separated by type and size to avoid any confusion.I do like the design of the bench, and the kit is made for an easy assembly process. However – and these are my opinions: 1) The materials used are relatively thin, and as such will only stand up to a moderate amount of weight and/or impact. 2) These thin materials are not likely to stand up to weathering from rain and sun for more than three or four years – unless sheltered from exposure. 3) I was disappointed to see that the plastic tub (sink) is fairly light, and had no provision for keeping it in place. You may see in my pictures that I installed a couple of small twist tabs (these are made for holding window screens in place) to hold down the lips of the tub. These were an easy fix, but very necessary where I live as we get 30-50 mph winds regularly, and the tub would have been long gone in short order.Overall, this is a nice little potting bench, and if sheltered from weather and used with care, would likely last a long time. I just wish the manufacturer used materials that were a bit heavier, which of course would add to the cost, but I think it would make a better value.
