Redmon Since 1883 Teak Entryway Bench (5325) - Durable Solid Wood Hallway Seating for Home, Office & Outdoor Use

This is an impressive Teak bench for the price. The finish is excellent. There are no dings or shards to be found. I really can't believe the quality of the wood and finish. We have bought more expensive Aquateak brands before to find imperfections in the wood and finish. There's even a disclaimer from Aquateak about this. However, the Redmon is simply perfect as the attached picture will attest. As the other reviewer said, there are no instructions but it's pretty much self explanatory. Two screws per leg hold down each leg and there is a indent at the middle of each leg to support the middle shelf. The other reviewer also said that shelf didn't sit well, I can only say that on mine the fit is not perfect but well enough to not notice any misalignment. Assembly was easy and you really need to tighten every screw so that the legs have no give. For $120, this is a bargain. Hopefully this will push Aquateak to improve on their very expensive products. I will say that the Aquateak benches are more dense and they seem to use more wood. If there was any room for improvement on the Redmon is that there could have been one more slat on the bench so that the gaps are not so wide. Nonetheless, if I have the need for more benches, I would definitely buy another.
