Know before you buy
Yes, the bench is constructed from weather-resistant, UV-stabilized recycled HDPE, making it suitable for covered outdoor entryways or porches. If you plan to keep it exposed to the elements, we recommend adding the optional protective cover to maintain its finish.
The bench features an integrated open notch specifically designed to hold umbrellas upright. The base is engineered to collect water drips, preventing moisture from pooling on your floors.
The optional cushions are upholstered in Sunbrella fabric, which is highly water-repellent and resistant to fading. While the fabric handles moisture well, the cushion core is designed for outdoor use and should be brought inside during heavy storms to ensure longevity.
The Hello Bench arrives partially assembled and requires some final setup. It uses high-quality stainless steel hardware and aluminum inserts to ensure a sturdy, long-lasting connection.
The material is exceptionally low-maintenance. You can simply wipe it down with a soft cloth, mild soap, and water to remove dirt or debris.
Yes, the bench is designed for seating and is built to be durable and stable. At 28 pounds, it is sturdy enough to provide a reliable seat while you put on or take off your shoes.
