Note that the legs are WHITE and not stainless steel or chrome. The legs are made of metal but coated in white. I would have preferred the look of stainless steel or chrome legs but I loved this style of bench so I ordered it anyway and it looks amazing nonetheless. Easy to assemble, very sturdy and looks great in our living room. We're actually using it as a coffee table and we love it. I wanted a bench as opposed to a regular coffee table because it's slimmer and saves more room, we can use it to put our feet up when we're watching TV or we can move it and be used as additional seating.
