SONGMICS Wooden Piano Bench with Padded Cushion and Storage Compartment

Well made, about 5 minutes to assemble. Very comfortable. Exactly what I was looking for in my walk-in closet. The seat height is perfect, love the wide width. Plus the storage under the seat. Feels very solid & easy to move around as it isn’t too heavy for my 74 years.

This is actually a really nice quality item for it's price. I got this for my very narrow and small desk to use as a replacement computer chair. I chose this because it saves space by sliding under the desk and it also has a narrow but still generous enough space compartment under the seat. I put my tiny computer related items in there because my space saving desk has no drawer. I really like this item for an extra seat too for guests. It holds a decent amount of weight because I'm 200 and a male so it might even hold over that. The key thing is to still be gentle with the legs on carpet at least. No sliding it unless holding the legs or both sides of the top or scooting in to wherever you're sitting at. It's best to shift the bench by getting off of it first and manually moving it with your hands. That's just my advice as precaution though. It was so simple to assemble but a bit of a tight fit for the tool given for one corner of where a leg needs to be placed but it's doable and the point is all you have to put together on it are four legs. That's amazing and I was done in about 15 minutes only because of the balancing act of having to open the seat compartment to see inside where the attachments go through to and need to be tightened. It's also quite tall so it's perfect as a seat for almost anything including a table and for adults. I also felt the seat padding was strong and nice looking but it did smell strong of chemicals in my opinion. Still not a deal breaker because it went away real fast as I was putting it together...or maybe I got used to the smell? I would recommend this to family and I did pay for this with my own money in full. I know how hard it is to know what to buy. If you're looking for something truly of quality and looks don't bother but if you're looking for something to resemble that and not break from some weight but be affordable then get this. If you also want something quick but functional and cheap then again this is it. I think it doubles as a vanity seat too if a lady needed a more sturdy one and didn't mind the masculine look to it. My wife loves it and wants to use the desktop more because of it. It's a fun minimalistic style and something we usually don't have in our home. It's not the best out there but one of the best cheap ones out there. The shipping was great and no damage was on the box or the item. I have primes so it got here fast but even with prime it doesn't matter until it ships and then it's two days after that. Well this shipped fast so that's a plus too. Hope I helped because I'm trying to go back and review all my items I have gotten or at least the recent ones because I rely on reviews and photos so I don't waste money. So I think I can give back.

I have a new ebony satin Kawai upright that came with a nice looking bench, but it's a hard top (and impossible to find a cushion for it that's not $100+), and it's huge (I hate duet size), heavy and sometimes squeaks quite a lot. I was looking for something in satin but only finding high gloss finishes, except for an artist's bench that was way too expensive. I didn't want to spend a lot because, technically, I already have a bench and it seemed like a waste. The reviews for this one were so positive, and the pictures seemed like the finish was not high gloss, so I took a chance. THIS IS PERFECT!!!! It's very comfortable, and a little bit lower than my bench (the dimensions are spot on), so it's extremely comfortable even though it doesn't adjust. Perfect for my height and leg length. I put it together in 10 min. the storage is fine, I don't use it much anyway, I have way too much sheet music. LOL. Definitely an excellent bench and the price is great!

Bought this to replace my solo, single-player Yamaha bench. That bench was just OK - it was uncomfortable, but got the job done - and this replacement bench is leagues above it, but still has a couple of shortcomings. Pros: * Excellent size. The duet bench should be a standard. Even if you're playing by yourself, it's great to have the space to slide around and stretch out. * The storage has good depth and is very useful. Say goodbye to sheet music just laying around, just slip it into the bench. I have a digital piano, and the storage comfortably holds my over-the-ear headphones as well, which was a good surprise. * Super easy to put together. The legs slip in and you screw a couple of nuts and washers. Couldn't be any simpler. Unfortunately, there are a few cons... * The bench had a few chips and knicks on it when it arrived. I was very surprised by this, because it was packaged excellently with plenty of padding and had no damage to the delivery box. I think the small chips and scratches must have happened during the packing process. * It's not very comfortable for longer periods. The cushion isn't as plush as I'd like. It feels good at first, but can get uncomfortable after 30 minutes or so. I've only had it for a week, so I'm worried about the long-term reliability of this cushion. * The price. Other duet benches on Amazon cost 3/4ths the price of this with comparable reviews. I stuck with Songmics though because I've used some of their products and have been happy with them before. Overall, it's a great bench. Some minor issues, but I'm very happy with my purchase. Recommended for any piano player in need of a bench.

Really easy to put together and quite sturdy. Very pleased.

This is a small bench I've used as a vanity bench due to it having the proper height for my situation. It's very nice and sturdy, but smallish. I would buy it again, but be aware it might not be for heavier ladies.

Wife loved it.

So far, the bench works very well for my 8 year old. She has used it twice since we assembled it yesterday. The assembly was fairly easy, though someone with large hands might find working in such close quarters uncomfortable. My fingers kept bumping into the corners. My fingers are rather small. Its just a slight inconvenience. The bench is sturdy. All legs are the same length, and the bench is solid on flat ground. The storage compartment is rather small. The length holds two John Thompson Music Theory workbooks, laid top to bottom. The width just fits the workbooks, with maybe an inch of extra space. A half inch thick, three ring binder fits the depth with two thin books on top. We laid a liner along the bottom to keep the black dye from wearing unto the music materials. The lid closes smoothly. My 8 year old loves that it closes quietly. There is an air gap between the storage compartment and lid, which I appreciate. The bench did smell when unpacking it, but its starting to dissipate. I really liked the fact that the bench came packaged with just enough to keep it safe during delivery. The legs may need a bit of paper wrapping, as one was slightly scratched. However, as I assembled the bench I noticed it was very dirty/dusty. It took several wipes to clean it. Every time I wiped the storage compartment base the rag kept turning black. I think its just a dye problem. However, the legs and outside took three wipes each before the rag was not grayish. Once cleaned up the bench works great, it looks great.

Cómodo, firme, amplio y fácil de armar.

Es un banco de una calidad aceptable por el precio. Se ve y se siente resistente. No se requieren instrucciones para armar ya que es muy sencillo y trae una llave para poder armarlo así que tampoco se necesitan herramientas. Venía en excelentes condiciones al desempecarlo. Indica que es para dos personas pero creo que estaría muy ajustado para dos. El espacio para guardar libros y partituras es amplio. En cuanto a la altura es aceptable pero para una persona pequeña creo que si quedaría ligeramente alto.

Very happy with this bench! Comfortable, and the right height for me to use with my Yamaha P-85 digital piano, on it's L-85 Keyboard stand. Fairly easy to put 2gether by yourself, but 4 hands would have been easier. Came with great packaging. The seat and top were already put together, and the legs were inside the seat, and so was all of the hardware (bolts, washers, etc), and it came with its' own wrench to tighten up the bolts to attach the legs. Wouldn't say it is a duet bench for 2 adults at the same time, as it isn't quite long enough, but very stable for one adult. It had "plastic pins" on the bottom of the wooden legs, but I added felt, so it wouldn't scratch my hardwood floors. The flip top works great, and I could store almost all of my music books. Very happy!

Landed up late. Patiently waited thinking it comes all the way from Europe. On assembly found that there is no place to fasten the hinge of the seat.Screw is there but nothing to tighten it into. Looked carefully and discovered it is made in CHINA. Would I recommend it. Certainly not.

Arrived in a timely manner, appropriately packaged for shipping. Arrived without issue. Easy to put together. Solid when assembled. Looks great. Light cushioning in top - probably not great for sitting on for hours, but perfect for my use. I use it at my desk. Slides under desk and out of the way. The storage in the stool is ideal for storing confidential docs I am working on, versus leaving them in full view on the desk. This is the second one I have purchased. Bought the other one about a year or so ago and it is still solid and in great shape (I use this at a different desk). Both are used in the home. Highly recommend.
