How deep is the storage area? I would like to store a hymnal in the bench (a little over 1.5 inches thick) and wondering if it will fit. Thank you!

The bottom section is 1 3/8" deep and the top section is also 1 3/8" deep for a total storage depth of approximately 2 3/4".

Hi, the bench itself is about 1.5" deep, however the top is also cut out on the inside another 1.5" making the total depth is about 3". Hope that makes sense. I just measured a thick music book I have in there, it's 1.5" thick and fits fine, in fact I have other things on the bottom of that and the bench closes just fine. Hope this helps!Julie

The storage tray is 1.25" below the edge, and there is a space from the edge to the bottom of cushion of about another 1.25". That should give you a storage area just shy of 2 .5" based on my quick and simple measurements. Had it for over a year and still in great condition after twice weekly use at a minimum.

It should be just fine. Altogether a very nice bench. I keep a 1 inch book in there with plenty of clearance.

With my bible inside it is 10-1/2" wide, 8-1/4" high and 2-3/4" thick, It has an outside pocket for pens, etc. I love it.

The top area is 5 1/2 inches high, and the bottom area is 6 inches high. What will you be storing? I love this piece. It is so well made!

The inside bench is 44 inches long x 14 1/4 wide x 14 inches deep. I store all my orchid medium and supplies in it. It is also sturdy enough for my grand children to enjoy and for me to sit on without concern ( and I am no little gal), I really like the one I have.

It is pretty deep. The majority of the storage bench is hollow. I use it for my daughter's toys and it holds a lot. I was impressed and satisfied.

The bench is 15 inches by 32 inches. I LOVE this beautiful dark bench. I turned a small closet by the front door into a closet nook, with a shoe bench on the floor and hooks mounted above on the wall for coats. Took the closet door off. The closet was small, so I assembled the bench inside the nook. It is beautiful.

Well, I have it set up near my piano for constant use. But if you ever need to store it or move it or what have you, it easily folds up. The center of the X in the legs of the bench have a removable screw that allows you to adjust the height. And under the seat, there are also removable/adjustable screws that allow you to fold it up when needed. Just don't lose the screws.

Hi Chris, I purchased this desk a few months back and I really like it! All of the compartments are about 16" deep but only the middle one is going to hold a standard sized text book- at least two of them. Hope this helps...

Hi John I'm Allison this bench is about 5 and half inches deep and 37 inches long in the interior. It's quite comfortable I use it for storing DVDs and there is a hinge located close to where the bench opens that may be a minor hindrance for some but hasn't been such for me.

I don't know the exact number of inches as I did not keep my bench - as it had rips on the sides - but, the inside storage area was decent - perhaps six to eight inches - kind of vague, but all I can offer, sorry

I just tried it for you. About 1 inch of the CD will be out on the horizontal pockets, if you don't mind that, I think you can store the CDs there, but the CDs won't fit on the vertical pockets. This hanging photo display is designed for 4x6 photos and the 2 columns of pockets in the middle are horizontal and the 2 columns in the sides are vertical). I hope this was helpful :-)

The handy recessed area is very generous in size. It is 34" wide and 22" front to back and it is 8 and a quarter inches deep. I bought a large rubbermaid dishpan for it and it fits perfect. There is a lot of room in it to store stuff. Sitting on top of the area are 2 lift off "lids". One is solid wood and the other is a type of lattice and my dish pan is under that so I can just sweep dirt and stuff right into it.If you can get this for a good price, don't hesitate. I really really like mine!!! (just don't use Minwax Spar Varnish (the spray). The water repels off of it but it made it rough and bumpy and now I have to sand it.Enjoy!

I think it may be a half to three quarter inches deep. I had a very old one there and it's not any thicker that that one. It's very nicely made also. I love it.

If the area surrounding this bench is large it would be great! It is large and heavily padded. Keep in mind that the color is not dark brown , but is cordovan!
