Alodie Storage Bench

This genuinely feels like a joke. The wood is just wrapped in some kind of wooden print paper and on several edges the paper is coming off and the plain untreated rough wood underneath shows. It’s bizarre, not what I expected at all, price is not justified at all for this product. I’m sure the company does great items, but this unfortunately really isn’t one of them. Luckily Wayfair acknowledged this after providing photos and quickly issued a refund.

"Manufactured wood" is hardly the word for it - while the bench may be made of MDF or something similar, it is covered with what is essentially a bad-quality printed picture of a wood pattern. It's like wallpaper and looks totally fake and tacky!

Love my bench for my hallway. High quality and the colour is fabulous
