I Finally Snagged the Sold-Out TikTok Storage Bench — And It’s on Sale

I am all about using TikTok for decorating inspiration; it’s one of my favorite places to watchhouse tours(other than Apartment Therapy, of course), search for style inspo, and discover cool products for my own space. I’m not ashamed to admit that I’ve been influenced countless times to shoplevitating lamps,insulated tumblers, and bath towels.

My latest obsession?This faux fur storage bench from Amazonthat always seems to be sold out. I finally got my hands on one after weeks of waiting, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it becomes unavailable soon —the bench ison sale ahead of Prime Dayfor 15 percent off, dropping the original $248.98 price tag down to $211.63.

I first saw this piece of furniture fromTikToker Sydney Nicole, who has dedicated most of her videos to Amazon fashion and home finds. Last November, she posted a unboxing video for what she called a “teddy bench,” and the post got over half a million views. The bench is about 45 inches wide with a horizontal stacked design that almost looks like ribbing. Shapely, curvy corners round out the silhouette, and the whole piece is covered in a cozy white sherpa material.

After I liked and shared Sydney’s video, the algorithm got to work and started showing me其他创作者也买了和爱super-chic bench. So naturally, I clicked over to Amazon to buy it for myself, but it was sold out. I went back and checked every few weeks and never had any luck — until one day, when it was randomly back in stock. I didn’t think twice about adding it to my cart. At the time,the bench was $270, but it’s obviously way less expensive now because of the early Prime Day sale. Even at the price I paid, I considered it reasonable for how stylish it looks, its overall size, and the fact that it offers hidden storage and thus is hinged. When I was finally able to unbox my own bench, I immediately fell in love.

This bench is even more beautiful in person. The material is soft, bright, and surprisingly easy to spot-clean. What I love most is that it’s 17 inches deep, so itoffers tons of storage space for blankets, diapers, and baby toys that I don’t want to leave out in the open in my living room. I haven’t done much sitting on it, but it’s a great spot to put on or take off shoes, and you can definitely offer it as a perch to guests if you’ve run out of sofa or chair seating.

One TikTokerwho posted about the bench said that it looks really similar to a brand-name designer piece that retails for $700, and she’s absolutely right. For nearly a third of the price, this isn’t a bad alternative at all if you’re trying to achieve a neutral, high-end look at a lower price point. The final verdict is that this bench is absolutely worth the hype.

It’s currentlystill in stock on Amazon during an early Prime Day salebut that could change in an instant. So if you’ve been eyeing this bench, consider this your sign to move it from your wishlist into your shopping cart.
