Not enough quality
After 2 months of using the product I have the following view:
1. The product is made entirely from MDF (a mix of sawdust and resin) and not wood. Unfortunately this was not advertised by seller accordingly. For legs which are required for compressed this is ok. For horizontal elements that are required to bend is not the best material for sure.
2. All the joints are done by screws through steel plate corners. After the first 10 minutes during mounting I have tight too much a leg screw. As a result one long perimetral side (between legs) had cracked. Since I am a passionate woodworker and also because I have enough tools/machines/materials in my small shop I was able to replace both long horizontal elements with beech wood elements painted black. This changing was not visible but I have paid 3 hours of working for this.
3. During playing at piano the stool is ?screaming? a lot. I suppose that all the MDF elements in pressure-contact without carpentry joining are responsible for this sound. This is very annoying for a piano player.
4. Also the internal double screw mechanical system used to rise the sitting chair is not very tight so I have a gap in gears of few mils when I raised the chair. This is visible when you sit on the chair and you change your ?center of gravity?. You?ll hear immediately this gap.
As a conclusion: the product is cheap and suitable for a beginner or a child. My plans is to keep the seat/the mechanic as a next project in my shop.

Screws get loose
After only a few months I had to readjust all the screws because the bench was falling apart.
Otherwise I'm happy with it, I mean, it's a bench... I've only adjusted the height on the first day so I don't know if that system lasts long.
I think I'm satisfied with it as I got it as part of a bundle. But my opinion is that it could be sturdier.

Durable but shaky
I've had this bench for about 8 years and it still holds strong, but unfortunately there's always been wobbling and squeaking from it as one plays. No amount of tightening of the screws on the bench has gotten that to go away. On the other hand, adjusting the height still works well.

Broken screw
I would say, that the bech looks fenomenal. I can play for hours on it and not feel unconfortable.
Mine sadly, one of the screws on the inside got broken with the half inside of the socket, but i will assume its just bad luck, as the quality of it looks quite impressive for this price.

Not the most stable for every day use, problem with leg bolts coming loose, which in turn
puts stress on the legs and can snap.

Good chair for beginners
Though the chair is not expensive, it is a bit wobbly and it can get annoying.
Apart from it it's rather comfortable and feels nice.

Wobbly
It's very cheap so you can't expect too much: looks decent but it's a bit unstable.
