Five Star Reviews: | 84% This is a very nice looking piano bench at a surprisingly favorable price April 7, 2017 This is a very nice looking piano bench at a surprisingly favorable price. Height is adjustable with knobs on the sides. I like it very much. Nice quality at a great price! November 2, 2015 We were looking for an adjustable bench for my son, who is on the tall side. He needed a lower bench. This was a bit too high even at it's lowest position. We just cut the bottom of the legs off and now it is perfect for him and can be adjusted for me, as i am on the short side. Looks nice! June 15, 2015 It is very nice and looks like the picture - maybe even better! Easy to attach the legs and it's ready to enjoy. Good quality and well packaged for shipping. Beautiful bench, for the price January 21, 2014 Bought this bench to go with my new keyboard, and it fits the bill! The brown tufted seat is a luscious "dark chocolate" leatherette, and is actually nicer in texture than the picture shows. Came well packaged with styrofoam all around in the box, faultless. I am an elderly woman, who attached the legs in about six minutes flat. I believe this bench will last. Am pleased with its appearance! Perfect for my needs January 25, 2013 I received this little beauty just a couple days after placing the order. It's very nice, with sturdy construction and firm upholstery. It is a fantastic upgrade from the makeshift thing I was working with for months, now it's a pleasure to play my harpsichord because I can adjust it to the perfect height. I'll be watching to see how long it holds up before anything starts coming apart, especially in the cushion seams, since it's made in China. Adjustable piano stool July 23, 2012 I needed a well made adjustable bench for a walnut baby grandwith sheet music space in the seat. I looked first at american-madequality benches . I found one with a real leather cover, but the priceapproached one thousand dollars .This bench has a vinyl seat, and a musicspace that is shallow but the seat is hollow above so the music can be piledhigh without preventing seat closure, which makes the actual space muchbigger.The adjusting knobs are sturdy and attractive, the raise levers lookvery solid and the wood is very attractively finished. Fastening on the fourlegs took ten minutes and was very simple. My impression is one of fascinationthat a manufacturer anywhere can produce such a well made piece of furniturefor circa one hundred dollars. How this bench will wear is impossible to say,but at this price who cares. | 81% it seems like it will last a long time September 5, 2017 High quality, heavy piano bench. From the looks and feel, it seems like it will last a long time. Great. August 3, 2017 Exactly as advertised. A cinch to assemble, zero wobble, looks great. The seat is quite firm but comfortable. Met my expectations and totally happy with my choice. A good one ! Fancy too! June 24, 2017 This bench is very good - for the price it serves exactly as a professional piano bench and is adjustable. The seat is very stable and it feels sturdy / made of good materials. I reccomend! Awesome bench which meets a professional's requirements October 14, 2015 It's been a year of usage. I bought it when it was still $100 with minimal reviews. I use this bench everyday for myself and my students. I love the storage compartment because I can store stickers in it. This bench is well cushioned. At first the knobs were hard to turn, but became easy over time. I do recommend going in and tightening some screws over time because the knobs become loose. My only wish is for it to be a little longer so that my students have space to scoot when they need to reach for keys near the ends of the piano. Otherwise, this is a great bench and I'm really happy with it. Very well made, nice looking bench April 4, 2015 This is a very well made bench, and the service from seller is exemplary. I like the shiny black ebony finish, and the pattern on the leather. The storage is reasonable for a few books. I got this for my 6 year old, and he is finally able to sit properly without additional pillows, and other contraptions. The soft top open hinge is only on the left side, but it should suffice, since the top is not too heavy. I had received the bench with a minor cosmetic defect on one leg, but upon contact, CPS Imports shipped a new leg by express mail right away, and I couldn't be happier. I'd recommend this bench and the seller to anyone. It is not as long as the the original bench he had but it looks just fine and has a good range of adjustment January 16, 2015 I was a bit worried about ordering this bench because I was afraid it would look cheap with our Yamaha grand piano. My son had been asking for a higher bench for quite a while because his wrists were starting to bother him as he grew and he was not maintaining the correct position. He is 6'2" tall. It is not as long as the the original bench he had but it looks just fine and has a good range of adjustment. He adjusted it when he put it together and he loves it. It has a little more cush than the regular bench. It is not as deep for storage but that is not necessary. | 71% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 14% Nice bench but kinda heavy June 26, 2017 It's a nice bench. It adjusts more than the last bench we had. It's also really heavy and hard to move around, which is annoying. It looks like the picture and is comfy. Good Deal April 14, 2017 For the price you can't beat this. Friend saw this and immediately ordered one for her church. Better than expected, but keep an eye on it January 6, 2017 For the price I paid, I really can't complain. I expected it to be budget construction, and it is. I turn it over once a month or so and retighten the bolts that hold the legs on. Other than that, it's holding up very well. Beautiful bench and also comfortable November 20, 2016 Beautiful bench and also comfortable. The legs loosen and have to be tightened periodically but that is the only negative. This is one heavy bench September 7, 2016 Just received the adjustable piano bench in walnut. It is very nice looking, solidly built, and comfortable. It looks greatwith my walnut uptight piano. It took only minutes to put together. I had suffered with a too short vanity bench foryears which is why I finally purchased this adjustable bench. Right out of the box this bench was the perfect height.No need for adjusting. Hmmm. So, as it turned out I didn't need an adjustable bench at all. I might add, the mechanism toraise the seat adds a lot of weight to the bench. This is one very heavy bench. So unless you are height compromised or have smallchildren I would recommend saving your back and money by purchasing a standard bench. ... that price it can't be beat… Padded seat feels great & the storage compartment is a must have… Very ... January 22, 2016 Paid $115 dollars… At that price it can't be beat… Padded seat feels great & the storage compartment is a must have… Very solid bench that's extremely easy to assemble… | 12% can't actually put books in it with the normal orientation ... May 12, 2017 can't actually put books in it with the normal orientation (so don't expect to stacks of books in here, just one). Also very little room (depth). Otherwise it seems ok. Certainly not as stable as the bench that came with it and part of that is probably it's size. But I can't detract a star for the size since that is listed and accurate A sturdy adjustable bench for a reasonable price. September 5, 2016 So far, so good. The bench adjusts easily and so far seems sturdy. However, its width seems a little small, although it is adequate. I am considering ordering a duet bench for where I teach. Great value for the cost August 12, 2016 Great value for the cost . Shipped quickly and exceeded our expatGreat valve more than reasonable cost expert quick customer service . Pastor Chet Easy assembly. May 23, 2016 Easy assembly.........attach the 4 legs with supplied allen wrench...........I used my own set because I didn't find theirs until I was all done.Infinite adjustment from all the way down to fully extended.ComfortableSturdyGood purchaseAll that's needed now is for me to learn to play my keyboard I would recommend this product March 12, 2016 It is great ~ Easy to assemble and great value for the price. It did however, out-gas a chemical/plastic smell for about a week, but that is gone now, thankfully. Otherwise, I would have rated it 5 stars. Just took a break from composing on the piano and checked my email to find this survey. How serendipitous is that? ;) Adjusts high enough for my 4 yr old August 12, 2013 I like this nice looking bench and can recommend it especially for smaller/young piano & keyboard players.It has a small storage bench which is nice. (small, but good enough.)It is comfortable to sit on.It has grips on the bottom of the legs so it feels stable.It is the right weight - not too light that someone could knock it over, and not too heavy at all.It is exactly what I was looking for. | 18% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Three Star Reviews: | 1% | 4% It was easy to assemble September 13, 2016 I would have given this a 4 or 5 star had I not discovered the gouges that it created on the hardwood floor. The base of bench legs came with round floor protectors; these were thin and did not extend to the corners. On my bench, the corners had globs of excess material on bottom, which damaged the floor. I've since tried to smooth the base and stuck on larger felt floor protectors.The bench was delivered ahead of the estimated date. It was easy to assemble, and is comfortable. There is a little bit of squeaking. Decent bench given the price. May 19, 2016 I've been using this bench for six months and it's relatively comfortable, although it does have a tendency to squeak now and then as I shift positions. A little lubricant and retightening of the bolts generally solves that problem. The interior storage compartment is about average for this type of bench. Had they made it just 1/2" larger from front to back, it could accommodate a wider range of music books; as it is, it holds only shorter books, but you do have enough room for two stacks. My only major complaint is that the bench does not remain in position and tends to slowly sink to the lowest setting over time. Now it only rises about half way to the highest setting. I'm still debating whether to go through the hassle of returning it for repair or replacement. Since I purchased this as an interim solution until I purchase a new piano, I'll probably keep it. I would not recommend it for long-term use. The buttons come off! February 20, 2015 This bench looks nice, and seemed like a great price.. but the buttons have come off a few times. For that reason I don't recommend. Comfortable but squeaks July 21, 2014 A decent bench for the price if you need adjustable height. Feels hefty, stable and comfortable. Outer material and finishing is nice but when you turn it over and look at the adjustable mechanism, the poor quality of the metal rails, fittings and workmanship shows, There is a slight amount on play on the height adjustment mechanism on my bench. if the seat height is raised significantly (say an inch or more), it squeaks when you lean to the edges. You won't notice it if you play light classical, jazz or pop songs seated in the center. However, when you play say, a four octave scale and need shift your body weight to the edge of the seat quite often, it will squeak on mine and listeners can also hear it. For reference, I weight approx 150 lbs. So, for its price, this bench is fair value if you need adjustable height for a low cost, otherwise it is nowhere near the quality of a Jansen artist bench and won't be able to replace one. Good product, however very limited storage space for music June 22, 2013 The bench is well made and solid, the height adjustment works well, comfortable to sit on.The only complaint is a limited storage space. | 6% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Two Star Reviews: | 1% | 1% Comfortable, but not for professional use December 17, 2016 I have two pianos and wanted to upgrade my benches, so bought this bench for one of the pianos. I won't be buying it again for the other one. Although it looks distinguished and professional, it is much smaller than it appears in the picture. However it is large enough--there's no risk of falling off the bench. Just don't expect to share this bench with anyone else. The real problem is that the bench squeaks. It's not suitable for use in performances or recordings. I'm embarrassed to use it with my students in lessons. I also think it's a little silly that shipping cost 17% of the price of the bunch itself. Still not tall enough. January 30, 2016 Two problems:It just smells. I have to leave it in the garage for 2 weeks before it becomes tolerable. Suggestion to all (Chinese) furniture makers: why not air it out before putting in the package? Between a pre-aired vs. a smelly brand-new, I'd pick the former without a doubt.Bigger problem: at its highest, it's still quite low to sit on. Not high enough for my daughter. (21 inches) I guess I will wait for my daughter to grow faster then :)Too bad it's so heavy. I'd hate to pay shipping cost again. Oh well. | 1% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 0% There are no reviews yet | 2% Cheap and will only last for a year!!! August 7, 2017 A little over a year after purchase and a light use by someone who weighs less than 100 lbs, 2 tufted button seams are undone. Very cheaply made. I should have bought a better one. :( This bench is very comfortable, sleek and stylish December 26, 2015 This bench is very comfortable, sleek and stylish. It has it's own sheet music cabinet under the cushion however there is one problem that outweighs all its other good qualities. It's stability.This bench creeks, squeaks and bangs as much as stepping on an aged wooden plank. It's very irritating, leaning to the left while squeak leaning to the right will creak, the sound at times is louder than my playing. If you plan on recording DO NOT buy this. If you're a player for fun and are on a budget, I recommend this bench.Edit: After a couple of days. I can NOT STAND THIS BENCH. Stay away! Although it's cheap, you don't want to waste your money here. As a pianist who plays things like Rachmaninoff and Chopin I move around quite a bit. I bought this bench 2 months ago and was satisfied at first but WOW has my opinion changed. I mentioned the squeaking before but it's gotten to the point where even leaning in any direction to press a higher/lower key will squeak louder than the piano itself. It's very annoying and the height of this bench is lower than usual. You will need to adjust it to your height when you buy it. Comfort is below average as my back hurts after a couple of hours. This bench looks amazing but works terribly. I now use my older cheap bench that came with my digital piano for playing. Buyer beware! Not Music to My Ears... October 29, 2015 Unimpressed. Would give this one no stars if possible. I was sent a unit with an overt manufacturing flaw, whereby one of the legs would not fit because the mending brace was attached incorrectly. Apparently, Inspector 13 went to sleep! Faux leather (vinyl) looks cheap and felt uncomfortable.Maybe regarding the flaw, I was the exception, but nonetheless for the $130+ I paid, it didn't seem at all worth the money. | 4% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
