Nelson *Style* Bench

Agree with amt -- definitely not a Nelson Bench.
Nelson "inspired"...

Whether a genuine Nelson or a "Nelson style" bench, it's a steal at $200. It looks great.

Yes, it's a "steal" for whoever is selling this lame knock-off.

If you want a Nelson knockoff, you can get this bench from places like Inmod for $199 brand new... at least it will be made to the exact same specs as Nelson's 48" bench.

The bench pictured above completely disregards the Nelson bench specs (example: 2 cross braces instead of a single centre... correct for the long Nelson bench, wrong on the short bench).

$200 for this is laughable. The seller is likely hoping for a buyer who is as misinformed as he/ she was when they bought it.

I agree this bench looks a lil short. Is this the nelson inspired side table?

The seller definitely scavaged the buyer though the buyer duped apartment therapy New York with this thread topic.

i have never seen even a nelson knock off to be this squat, that being said its really cute. i bought a wobbly nelson style 4ft bench for $75 and found it was way too long to use as a coffee table, still love it though.
