> 3 dayAfter reading reviews of wood shower stools and reading of water retention & mold on those, I opted to spend the money for this composite stool and happy that I did. Took a minute to assemble because there werent markings for which leg goes where (and there is a difference), but once I got that figured out it went together very simply. Its very sturdy, perfect height for leg washing/shaving, and rinses off when finished. Because it is composite, it wont require setting it out of the shower to air dry in an effort to reduce mold/mildew staining. Color is nice, resembling bamboo, and I wont have to worry about mold & mildew in the grain of wood or frequent replacement.

> 3 dayInitially I wanted to buy this as a chair for the front door so people can sit on it and put on shoes. The quality of it felt great and I wasnt sure if the plastic material would be destroyed by the sun. I looked it up online and it seems that the plastic can handle the UV radiation. Nonetheless, we liked it so much we didnt want to take the chances so we just kept it indoor near our kitchen area. We use it kind of like a mini cart and store things temporarily. If youre using it for the shower as its described then I have no doubt that it will serve its purpose, however, I cant say how it will do for things like mold and mildew. But as a small little stool its awesome.

> 3 dayIt was really easy to put together (i used an electric screw driver). It came with a small sanding block wich i didnt needed to use. Its sturdy and holds me with no problem (heavy person). The stool is a good size but not as heavy as i though. Perfect size for my shower and it looks nice as well as i have see-through glass. Im very happy with it

> 3 dayHave this in my master shower and its been holding up very well after a month in there. I was worried it was going to start absorbing the water and deteriorating but nope nothing yet. Its also very sturdy, It doesnt seem to wobble at all when I have a leg on it when shaving or while im fully sitting on it contemplating my life choices. Great product and I would happily buy again if it ever did break.

Greater than one weekI do not want to get a shower bench that is made with wood products. I know Teak is probably the best choice if I want a wood bench. It is water and mold resistance but it is not water and mold proof. A plastic bench/stool would be more carefree but it does not look as good. I want a carefree shower bench that looks nice. This Psilvam Poly Lumber Shower Bench meets my requirements. It is made with Polystyrene. I have to Google to find out what is Polystyrene and its characteristics. Polystyrene is resin and it is relatively chemically inert. It is waterproof and resistant to a lot of acids and bases. However, it dissolves in acetone and chlorinated solvents. So, as long as cleaning this shower bench with soap and water, it would be fine. I am pleasantly surprised how good this bench look. It looks better than the pictures. It looks and feels like it is made with solid teak. It assembled easily and is very stable. The Non-slip Feet is a nice touch. The plastic feet are height adjustable. This is important as the floor of my shower is not level as in most if not all shower floors. It is by design that the floor slopes towards the drain. With adjustable feet, this bench could be set level and stable. There was a little sanding block included and I sanded one edge just to see what would happen. This Polystyrene sanded just like wood. There is no paint or external finish and no change of color when sanded. This Psilvam Poly Lumber Shower Bench is just as expensive as a comparable teak bench but I would still prefer this. The reason is this Poly Lumber material would probably outlast teak and is as maintenance free as possible. It looks nice and is well made. Footnote: - While it is quite easy to assemble this bench, the legs need to be matched to the bottom contour of seat. The top of the legs are not flat, the longer side should be oriented at the outside.

> 3 dayI can not believe how much this product looks like real wood. Amazing quality for the price point. I took my photo outside to help show the color and texture. This is a 5 star product and I want to buy more from this company. Easy to assemble and very sturdy. There are no assembly instructions and the four legs are different. Pay attention to the slope at the top and line up the legs correctly with the slope to assemble correctly.

> 3 dayOrdered this bench to avoid the care and maintenance of a teak shower bench. Was skeptical of what it would actually be when it arrived. It arrived in a box labeled Heavy and the weight of it surprised me. Opening the box was another pleasant surprise. It is hard to see that it is not real wood. Its weighty like wood, almost feels like wood and is sturdy, stable and seems to strong like wood. Very happy with my choice, hopefully as time goes on this will continue to be true but all indications are that this bench will be exactly what I was hoping.

> 3 daySo for this price I figured I would get a pretty nice bench, wasnt disappointed. Hard to believe it wasnt natural wood. The heft, feel and look , is that of wood. I wanted this for my room so could sit put my shoes on and to sit on while I cut my hair. Its quite comfortable and very sturdy, seems like it could handle some weight. I was able to put it together rather fast, about 15 min. Sanded it down a bit for that smooth feel, but would be fine just like it is.
