Japanese Style Split Bamboo Coffee Table - 4ft Rustic Oriental Furniture with Folding Legs, Dark Finish - Perfect for Zen Living Rooms, Asian-Themed Decor & Outdoor Patio Use

Stupid easy to use, clean and elegant indoor or out. I wouldn't let it get wet, or at least don't let it get soaked. Sturdy, I can stand on it easily, I weigh 200lbs. on a good day. Can be placed in multiple places, would look great in a garden. I have it as a coffee table. The only thing I don't like is that you have to use a sub-surface to place beverages on as the top is just rods of bamboo. I have gotten good at balancing a beer on it, but commonly I'll set that on an end table and not on this coffee table. I won't mark them down for that, however; as I knew that would be an issue when purchasing.The first bench I bought arrived promptly, was VERY easy to set up, and not only looked good, but was sturdy enough to hold me as well as all the equipment I burdened it with. So when I needed a second bench, I bought another one. This time, way too much nature was included in the natural bamboo -- bugs had attacked the bench and when I opened the box in my bedroom, a small mountain of bamboo dust fell from one of the support rods, which had been eaten through. The reason I am writing this review is to compliment Oriental Furniture on their prompt, courteous response. The replacement came when they said it would, and no bugs of any kind were present. Their lack of red tape and obfuscating was a genuine pleasure.First of all kudos to Amazon for prompt delivery as always. After the review about insect damage I was concerned but hope for the best. The item arrived double boxed which was good but there was no packing what so ever. To make matters worse one of the large cross pieces had a big crack half the length of the piece. I knew it was a risk but I was only going to use it for a couple plants in front of the window. I have glued the piece and turned it so the crack faces the wall. I had thought to buy a second one but there are other pieces that cost less and probably won't come damaged. I don't plan to return this bench its unique but I wouldn't advise anyone to buy it.Works great and looks greatI'm using this bench as a coffee table. I love it. Such a great piece for the price and versatile. Well built.I bought this bench to serve as a seat while putting on your shoes by the front door, and as a place to set plants so that they could get some indirect sunlight. It enhances our entryway really nicely by giving it an island-like feel.This table was very easy to set up, it is sturdy and looks rustic and tropical just like I wanted.Stunning piece
