Customer Reviews for SAFAVIEH Lonan Black Storage Bench

Very nice bench and is perfect under my window. Love the storage baskets - Looks great I would recommend-

take your time putting this together the back panel has to line up with the top and you got it. The basket screws for mine most did not fit. I was able to tie them together with floral wire and it worked. Only 1 basket three screws fit, which was the tiring part of putting this piece together. It does look great and it was worth the trouble to put together.

Not the best construction but adequate and a really good price compared to others I've seen like it. Don't like the wicker look so replaced the baskets with cloth bins.

I purchased this bench for my daughters room based on the reviews. When putting it together the holes for the screws did not match up. The bins are flimsy and really roughly made. The bins scratched and stained the cubbies within days. For the price I would not purchase this product. I should have returned it but didn't want to bother since I purchased it online. I've had the bench for about 1.5 months.

This is a really nice looking bench- way tougher to assemble than expected. Took about 3 hrs - directions aren't clear. Seems sturdy though and looks more expensive than it is. Overall a good value for price.

The storage bench fit in very well with our new mud room. It was just what we needed! However, the description says "white", and it is not really white, it is more off white, almost cream colored. But it still works well in our new room.

The description says it is white, but it is actually cream colored. We painted it - so now it is white. Some of staples or screws already in the bench were located in places where we had to change them to put it together correctly. We did not use the cushion - it looks a lot better without it . I guess we got what we paid for, but without seeing any of these in person - we didn't want to put too much money into it.

I received this for use by our front door. The baskets are great for shoes and the cushion is perfect for sitting down to put your shoes on. It was packaged very well, a box within a box. The picture I took of it packaged is the box within the box. Between styrofoam, pieces of the basket wicker and some paint off the basket hardware, the box got messy and I had to vacuum up the area when I was done. The directions said assembly would take 5 minutes. The wood parts took me fix minutes but each basket was 5 mins a piece. Screwing in the bottom piece of each basket was tricky. In the end, it is a beautiful piece. It is more of a light cream white than a bright white but still nice looking. I took a page out of my grandmother's playbook and left the protective plastic on the white cushion for now. I imagine it will get very dirty in the future.

Not overly sturdy to sit on and the baskets were difficult to assemble.

All wood and size I was looking for. Easy assembly!

Instructions not correct. Paint chipped, damage to edges. Cushion bottom torn.

Loved this great storage bench. Will use it in our family room near the door where all our children be will deposit shoes, cleats and boots throughout the year. Well made-very sturdy with a great sitting bench to put on those sneakers. An exceptional and beautiful live of furniture for our family room .

The bench was really easy to put together my wife really feels it a great edition to the house and serves a purpose.

Quick delivery. Easy to put together. Functional and looks very nice! No complaints.

I've gotten pretty decent at putting small pieces of furniture together but this one did not work out. To start, there was a funky smell and multiple stains on packing material and wood pieces where it looked like the stain on the wood had not dried before it was shipped. The storage bins were not wicker, but some kind of harsh grassy material. The cushion was very hard. The dividers for the bins could not be spaced evenly because of the locations of the holes and grooves that were supposed to accommodate them. This looked great but I was sorry I ordered it and wound up taking it apart and returning it.

I purchased this bench for the looks and organizational storage for a small condo. I couldn’t be happier! It solves the “shoe” problem! Everyone has their own bin and it’s neat and organized. Very well built, actually real wood and very sturdy! Don’t hesitate to purchase !

Good quality product! Easy Assembly.

The bench looks exactly as pictured and works perfectly in my baby’s nursery! The instructions weren’t great but it was easy enough to figure out how to assemble. Honestly, worst part was assembling the baskets.

Love this piece. It was easy to put together. I didn't use the baskets because they didn't go with my look.

Looks nice but very cheaply made. Very squeaky when you sit on it.

Horrible!! Cheaply made, just got started with assembly and nothing was lining up! Metal inserts (in pre drilled holes) were missing! Nothing there to hold the screw in. Returned!

Overall, the bench seems to be decent quality. Looks nice. However, the quality of the baskets could be better.
