I saw in Malacca that 2 seaters, similar to what you have are around 1.2k RM. saw u have a shoe rack at the back of your door, can share where u got it? I got it from Helping Hand, $290. I love the raw-ness of the bench, it's heavy heavy teak wood. Every piece is unique, so if you're not hard-up for time, just wait for every of their shipment and decide. Shoe rack is from USA, Container Store, currently my favourite shop in States. Forgot the brand, it's 36 pair over door shoe rack, at the price of US$30, S$40. Good luck!
