Camel Back reminds me of an ex-girlfriend.

I think you meant camel toe #1.

No #2, she was hunched over. It was probably the osteoporosis. Camel toe would remind me of #3's sister

Camel toe reminds you of your sister?

rofl bubbrubb has one burp up mind.

this will probably b a hunched over rust bench in no time

Cheap benches are a tradeoff usually. Reviews note it isn't able to support much weight and the screws break easily.

If you want this for more than a lawn ornament I would suggest you go to the hardware store and get better hardened fasteners, possibly needing to slightly drill out holes in the wood if applicable, and get an all weather sealer product and apply it early each year before the rainy season (or hot season in some climates). This will not only help protect the wood from normal wear but allow it to retain more flexibility so it's less likely to be damaged if a heavier person sat on it - and reduce formation of splinters in the future.

If you're really gung-ho about doing it right and it isn't polyurethane coated wood, you might even consider sanding it down first to a smoother finish. May not seem important now but after wood sits outside for awhile especially in the sun that takes it's toll. This is only an assumption since I haven't seen this particular bench, based on differences I saw in the cheap and more expensive benches a few years back.

However if sitting in the sun year round, you're almost as well off sanding a poly coating off if it has one as not doing it, otherwise it'll just bubble and peel away and look like crap. I suppose you could later disassemble it and do that then but at that point it's left the wood unprotected from rain and air for awhile, while removing that ahead of time and prepping the wood with a good oil based sealant first will minimize the changes.

Then again, you could just pay more and only need to apply the sealant every year or two without having to refinish the wood but there's no substitute for sealant. Example sealant, you'd want to liberally apply, leave it sit soaking for at least a few hours, wipe off excess, then let minimal amount remaining on the wood surface to soak in for a day or two before sitting on it again - test surface before si...

As if anyone on this forum can afford a nice enough yard in which to place a bench like this....

#9 not everyone here lives in a cluttered city cloistered from any signs of vegetation, where your only non-human neighbor is smog and concrete. so yeah, i have enough room for a bench.

they have these in front of my local dunkin donuts for the fatasses waiting for the bus.

I saw this in the sims once. Comfort -3.
