Question for LD. And anyone else. (piano related)

10 days later it arrived. Not bad over Christmas.
Some comparisons to the Jansen (at least I assume the Bosendorfer branded bench is a Jansen).

Underneath, you can see the quality difference but the cheap one isn't really that cheap.
In more detail. First the Bosie/Jansen:
Now the new one:

Definitely has a nice solid feel to it, though not quite the same as the Jansen. I'm pretty happy I bought it. Granted, it's the first day. But it won't get raised or lowered much, probably not at all, so one presumes it will last just fine.

@jon-nyc how is the weight?
The CPS benches I have seen before were substantially lighter.

Glad it seems to be what you were hoping for.
The Bose bench doesn't look like a Jansen. Obviously it's held up for a number of years, so whether it was made in-house, or by some other manufacture, it's well made.
Jansen legs are attached to the body, and have an adjusting mechanism similar your newer bench. (just much more heavy duty)

Bosie: 27.2 lbs
CPS: 25.8 lbs.Yeah, @Rich is right. I’ve never met a Jansen bench under 45 lbs.
