Know before you buy
The bench is designed to comfortably seat two adults.
The bench features a rough sawn distressing technique on mindi solids and veneers, which gives it a textured, vintage character rather than a perfectly smooth finish.
Yes, with a height of 18 inches, this bench is specifically designed to fit under standard dining tables, which typically have a clearance of 29 to 30 inches.
The planked design adds aesthetic texture, but it does include slight grooves between the planks. We recommend using a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting and a damp cloth for spills, being careful to wipe along the grain.
The Alpine Side Bench typically arrives partially assembled. You will likely need to attach the legs to the seat base, which is a straightforward process requiring only basic tools.
