Harris White Backless Nook with Interior Storage by Linon

I spent a lot of time deciding whether or not to buy this bench since it seemed to be what I needed, but the reviews were mixed, but I’m very happy I did. Here are the highlights based on my experiences and others reviews. - it is very heavy…in my book that is good. That makes it sturdy and it appears to be real wood and not pressed plywood for the most part - I had no damaged items. It was packaged well with styrofoam all around annd inside. Anything can get damaged and shipping depending on how it’s handled so not really sure that that should be a factor. - some people commented on the paint, not being thick enough. Yes I can see the woodgrain, but it doesn’t look bad. In fact it proves its real wood and if you really need it to be a darker white, you could just paint it in my opinion it looks good. - I put this together by myself and my 13 year old son helped me a couple times - which I would say was needed. It took a little bit of time, but like I said, it’s well-made. If I did it with out stopping maybe 1.5-2 hours…but I took my time and just did it within my evening. - everything was amazingly well labeled and easy to figure out what went where. The reason it takes so long is because there is many steps and they do things the right way, like putting stoppers for the seat tops and soft clothes hinges for the storage areas. - Tons of storage!! - perfect size…fits 3-4 comfortably on it (I have teenagers) - for that price, well worth it. I would highly recommend buying of this fits in your space and you need something like I did! Was not paid for this review, nor was given it for free, just a person who was struggling whether or not to buy this and could have used more info!

This took a while to put together but overall has been a great purchase! Goes well in my dining room and helps to save space. I have all of my large appliances in this corner seat!

I was very wary about this products due to past reviews but once it was put together, this item is awesome. Only one panel was broken, but it wasn’t something that would affect the structure or use. It was the small panel in the corner at the bottom. I added it in the photos so you could see what I mean. It’s the only reason we didn’t give it 5 stars. It took my husband only a few hours to put together. The benches hold a lot of items and it has a fairly sturdy bottom, which happily surprised me. My family of four sat on it all at once and it was roomy enough for us all. It’s gorgeous, matches my kitchen perfectly and fits our tiny kitchen with no problem. One of the best purchases we’ve made on Amazon.

This is a better product! I had to return others that were made of poor quality materials, had bad instructions this company I recall is from Brazil and I’m loving it! Strong and well designed. I purchased the white with natural wood top. I also didn’t assemble the corner. I needed a long straight stretch. I had to use a side part of the corner which isn’t as decorated as the original end pieces and I needed to flip a front piece around for the second stretch but it works and I’m very happy!

Easy to build, plenty of storage space, no missing pieces, very sturdy. We love it!

Hope I remember to update with better pic. Don't have any without the kids so I removed them to post it which is why pic looks bad. The good: Looks very nice. Feels sturdy. Came undamaged with all pieces and fairly decent instructions if you know what you're doing. Was what we wanted. Kids love it. Spent more time in the dining room in one evening than we have in years. I do think this piece will last a long time. Easy to clean surfaces because of a very nice painted surface. Wood top is beautiful. Got the pillows which look nice: sewing is tidy/crispy. My kids want to eat, sleep, do homework, chat, do art and have friends over to this room because of this furniture. The bad: I've built a LOT of furniture. This felt like I may as well have built it from scratch myself. They didn't drill pilot holes? Some pieces had 2 of three drilled. Some none. Some were not pre-drilled well enough so the screws were very difficult to sink fully. Had to take it apart to drill those more. I mean, some of those problems may be due to the fact that it was ok quality wood but again, that's why you need the pilot holes! It was *almost* funny since the instructions specifically say to not use power tools. And, the hinge spring is a "No" from me. Installed it and the spring is so stiff that it just ripped right out of the (blessedly actually pre-drilled pilot holes) wood as I tried to close it. I quadruple checked that I had installed it in the correct position and orientation before I gave up. Obviously, it's now damaged in the inside now where it ripped out. You don't really need them though so I just threw my hands up and left those off. Listen, it looks great. For the money I spent I think I shouldn't have had to work so hard. Maybe for 200$? If I hadn't known what I was doing or if I didn't have a drill on hand so I could fix the pilot hole problem myself I probably would have cried. It's done now. I will enjoy it. But, if you buy this, you'll need power tools and a second pair of hands.

Absolutely love this piece.. real wood.. heavy .. modified for my style .. and affordable.. same item on other sites almost 100 more ..

The description says it is solid wood but there are many splits in the boards. The instructions are not overly clear and as far as flat pack furniture goes these are probably the worst I have ever seen. The top of one of the benches broke in two the first time we sat on it (hundreds of pounds below the listed weight limit). For clarity, the bench top was not one of the pieces that had visible splits before assembly as shown in my photos. Reached out to customer service for a replacement top (both called and emailed through their website template) with no response four days and counting. Garbage product and garbage service. Do yourself a favor and avoid this company!

Muy buen producto, fácil de ensamblar.

Gorgeous piece, shipping took forever. Arrived undamaged easy to out together. Storage underneath seats is a great bonus space. Perfect for a tiny kitchen breakfast nook. High quality. East assembly worth the money. Did buy additional seat padding and pillows

The alignment is not right as there’s a gap in the middle section. The paint job is very poor. There hinges open and hold but not all the way hence you hit your head trying to take things out as it doesn’t open all the way and hold there. If the above were not an issue I’d give it 5 stars and be willing to pay such a huge cost but for this price I expect the best given I could have got it custom made for $1k. Should have done that.

I am super happy with this purchase. It looks great! I put it together by myself and had no problems following the instructions. It looks like a custom built in piece. Super happy.

Very difficult to build. Instructions are not clear. There were a few scratches on the wood and a big black mark that doesn’t come off.
