LOYALICE HDPE 49" 2-Person Outdoor Bench with 4-in-1 Multi Side Tray, Weather-Resistant Park Bench with Wide Armrests & Backrest for Garden, Porch, Park, Black

This shopper is really persnickity when it comes to making a purchase choice. Not necessarily looking for the cheapest price available but cost for value. That has been my philosophy through life. I'm 81 yrs young. I was seeking for a weather proof bench for my front porch, and one that would go well with the glider chairs I had. Upon finding this particular bench on a different website I really liked the looks and the construction of it. It is constructed well and has additional bracing compared to other benches that were even more expensive. I had decided this was the bench I was willing to invest in. But before making the purchase I had the thought - check walmart.com first. And I'm glad I did. Purchased for $$ less. The bench itself has a woodgrain appearance and is beautiful in the coffee color. It matches my glider chairs well. It was delivered very well packaged in a good strong box. I made an inventory of the parts and every piece was there. I laid the pieces out in an orderly fashion and became familiar with them, making assembly easier. Every piece of the bench was well identified by the way they were marked from the factory, thus making assembly easy and not too time consuming. The screws and bolts are stainless steel and combined with the HDPE material pieces the bench will last for many years, outside or inside. The seating pieces have a natural fit for my bottom side and the back side has a natural curved fit for my back, making it a very comfortable sitting bench. And it is wide enough for two people to sit comfortably. And besides the price what really sold me on this particular bench was the additional bracing between the two end pieces. This is the only bench that I found with the center bracing at the bottom, extending from one end of the bench to the other. This particular feature does indeed make the bench more sturdy and keeps it from becoming easily bent out of shape due to the weight of those finding an excellent place to spend a few minutes, or hours, in conversation or just plain R%26R. I recommend the bench to anyone needing, or just plain wanting, a good looking, solidly constructed, well designed piece of furniture for porch, patio, or poolside. You can't go wrong with this one. Oh yes, forgot to mention. The screws and bolts are a perfect fit for every mounting point on the bench. Just lay them out, get acquainted with them, and follow instructions. You will be proud of yourself for having been the contractor to assemble the bench. Considering the purchase of another one.
