Is this a wall hugger storage bench or do you have to pull the bench away from the wall in order to fully access the storage compartment?

If you need constant access to it, it needs to be pulled away from the wall a bit. I never pull it away but it does tip a little in that case. I love the bench though. LOTS of room in it. Comfy to sit on too.

I am not sure I understand the question. I used it as a coffee table / foot rest in my apartment.

It is the back of compartments. No part of the wall shows. We love this purchase!

I pulled mine away from the wall just a bit, but not much, just so I can open without hitting the wall!

I have mine on the floor as I've no convenient wall, but noting the design, it is built like a thumb-tack and it stays like a picture on the wall. Look at how the receiver hooks onto the cradle when you hold it upright and look on the back, there is a little hole for holding a thumb-tack.

It's pretty easy to lift because the back is empty, so you would first have to move it from against the wall and then pick it up from the bottom I think

It is a hamper, not a bench. There are lots of attractive storage benches out there which might hold up better and be stronger for seating.

Yes, it folds up easily and can be stored out of sight. The thing to remember is the weight limit. My last bench also had a 200lb limit which I didn't notice. The front leg broke off at the welding, though it was some years after I had bought it. I am near the limit so, I don't try any experiments with this one and it seems to be holding itself together well.

It does not attach to the wall. It takes up more space than the old smaller boxes. I do like that its plain as opposed to the colorful designs on the other style (the logo is a wrapper that peels off) but its not convenient to store. I keep them under the sink for my kids.

Be sure that the "elbow" of the hinge is facing you when you're standing in front of the bench as if you were opening it, and that the flat rectangular sides of the hinges mirror each other towards the inside of the storage area. I hope this helps, good luck!

The top measures actually 18" back to front. I have ours against a wall and keep it almost 3" away from the wall so as to enable lifting the top up. Hope this is helpful. Oh, it's really a nice storage bench, looks really nice!

It has the ability to be flush at the bottom, but you can also pull it away from the wall. The unit does not require it to actually lean up against the wall.

The back folds down. In other words, it's not a pull-out - but much better. The sleep quality is far superior to the usual hide-a-bed. And underneath the bench is a compartment large enough for sheets and a couple of pillows. We are extremely pleased with this one.

Yes and no. You have to open the front to access the storage area, and the front is the desk surface and support that touches the floor. You can choose to hold it open on your own, but really you do need to open out the desk to get good access.

No, the storage is completely covered, and the bowls just sit on top of it. It is not hard to remove the top, since there are the handles on the sides to help you move it up. Although if you are picking up the item and not supporting the bottom, the bottom part of the storage could slide out depending on what you put in the storage.

It stores how it looks, we had to just move it over by the wall. The handles are easy to take off but it will take a few minutes to take them off and and put them on.

The sleeve goes THROUGH the wall. You screw it into studs in the wall through holes in the sides of the sleeve. And there are anchor brackets that keep it from slipping through while you work on it. A/C then slips into the sleeve and is basically held there by it's own weight and foam padding in the sleeve that makes for a tight fit. All in all a very tidy package. I had to enlarge hole in apartment compared to last sleeve that was there. Overall effort took about 2 hours of labor to make everything fit.

The unit itself does come out of the sleeve. The sleeve itself is open on the bottom not fully enclosed like others. I think there is 9 inches of wall clearance for the vents. (For in wall installation)
