Nice looking, stylish, trendy design that is easy to assemble. This bench and coat hook shelf is really sharp looking. While it has a concrete look it’s lightweight and made entirely out of wood products. The faux finish does look like concrete and distressed wood but it is made mostly of MDF (pressed wood dust and resin). It’s not a high quality piece of furniture by woodworking standards. Still it is a very nice looking piece. I also like the French cleat design for hanging/installing the coat shelf. It made it easy to line up with the wall studs (see photo). Price wise $240 (at the time of this review) a bit expensive for low quality lumber but I think you’re paying for the chic design. It is a nice addition to our mud room.

This review is for the Alaterre Newport Gray Coat Hook and Bench combo. We ordered them online and they arrived on the same day and they were both packaged nicely. Both boxes showed that they were heavy and required 2 people to lift, but I don't think either box was over 30 pounds.

Very Heavy duty bench and wall shelf. This bench and wall rack are very well made and quite heavy. The wall coat hook is attached to the wall with a wood bracket, with the actual heavy shelf placed onto the wood bracket for additional support. This shelf was heavier than expected and would hold full back packs hanging on the rack. This is a well supported shelf unit. The hooks come already attached and only the shelf and side brackets need to be assembled. The assembly of the coat rack took 15 minutes, but attaching to the wall will take much longer as it will need to be well supported on wall studs.
