Cortesi Home Kayla Solid Wood X Legs Bench Ottoman, Grey

Little on hard side to assemble, you’ll need patience and little extra time. Once assembled, it looks very nice and it’s sturdy.

Things I like: it's a beautiful stool, goes great with my decor.Things I don't like: it seems to be a little taller than the description... maybe 1/2 or 1". So, it's a little tall for my chair, but I kept it anyway. Also, Amazon sent the wrong color (ordered green, got grey), but they rectified the problem very quickly.

Great price! First one came just as described. Ordered 2 at the same price listed as "Like New/Used". The second one came with the leg broken in half. Was disappointed that they would even sell and send it out that way.

It isn't sturdy. The first one we bought both the legs broke within the first week. Love the look, however am afraid to sit on the replacement. It wobbles and I'm afraid it will also break. We kept it because the cats use it as a seat.

Very nice, seems sturdy. Just the right size for our small guest room. A breeze to put together.

Ottoman was exactly the size I was looking for and seems pretty well made and stable. Color matches the product photos as well! pictured in front of a 63” loveseat. There were a couple small nicks to the finish but none are visible once assembled.

I wanted a comfy piano bench like chair for practicing classical guitar. I tried a couple portable (folding) piano benches and they were uncomfortable and too high. This Cortesi X-bench is spec'd at 17.5 inches but mine is almost 18 inches from floor to the highest part of the cushion. However, when I sit on it, the cushion compresses over an inch making it the ideal height for guitar picking with both feet flat on the floor and my upper leg level/parallel to the floor (too highchairs makes the guitar slide downwards!). With all that said, it's a handsome bench of solid hardwood (mahogany?) and finished in a semi-gloss walnut stain. But, if you look closely, wood workmanship is so-so: glue sticking out of seams, finish blems and, the main reason I docked a star, uneven legs resulting in a slight rocking. The corduroy fabric is excellent, and sewing is clean, neat and defect free. Finally, assembly was easy and only took about 20 minutes, requiring screwing in 8 hex screws to hold the legs and crossbars in place. The supplied Allen wrench was too short. A longer handle wrench (I had one) makes snugging up the screws easier and avoids banging knuckles. All in all a nice bench: good looking, comfy and just the right height for playing guitar.Update 11/9/2020: Still looks nice but the padding has completely lost its firmness after several months of use (daily guitar playing) and I feels like I'm sitting on the wood under the cushion. The decorative buttons, while they look nice, dig into my backside, so not a good design feature. I laid a thin piece of memory foam on the cushion and I'm okay but what a disappointment. Not a bench for serious sitting.

Absolutely LOVE this cute little bench! After reading previous reviews about the it not being sturdy, I was nervous about purchasing. However, I am SO glad I did. I’ve been using the bench for about 4 months now & it has held up very nicely so far- very sturdy and a beautiful addition to my room.

Beautiful decor for front hallway to allow one to sit to take off and put on shoes and boots. Very well made.

Bench looks great and as expected. One of the holes for the legs didn’t align correctly and had to install it a little tilted to make it work. Concerned about the stability as a result. Didn’t get any emails from the vendor so not sure where to provide feedback or how to contact them.

Nothing special but it works. The color wasn't exactly what I wanted.

Easy to put together, stylish and perfect for my home office. The packaging was damaged but this was not the fault of the seller just the good ol Canadian courier. Highly recommended.

As advertised. Easy to put together and very sturdy. I get lots of compliments on it.
