Know before you buy
The rough-sawn finish features intentional saw marks and a textured surface that highlights the natural character of the Brown Maple. It offers a tactile, matte appearance that leans into a rugged, farmhouse aesthetic rather than a smooth, polished look.
The center leg is included on larger, expandable models to provide essential structural support. While it is positioned to maintain stability, it may slightly restrict where you can tuck your feet when sitting directly in the middle of the bench.
The bench itself does not have internal self-storing mechanisms. However, for orders including two or more leaves, a dedicated leaf storage case is provided to keep them protected and organized when not in use.
Built from solid Brown Maple with a 1.75-inch thick top, this bench is engineered for heavy-duty residential use. The inclusion of a center leg on larger sizes ensures the frame remains rigid and stable even when fully extended and occupied.
No, the distressed edge is carefully sanded and finished to ensure it is smooth to the touch. It provides a weathered, rustic look without compromising safety or comfort.
