Know before you buy
The bench stands at a standard seat height of 18 inches, making it suitable for use with most dining tables or as an entryway piece.
The trestle design features a carved mortise stretcher, which provides exceptional structural integrity and prevents wobbling, even under heavy use.
Yes, the Benjamin Bench is available in ten different wood species, including Oak, Cherry, Walnut, and various rustic options, allowing you to coordinate the grain and tone with your current decor.
The Mission edge is a clean, squared-off profile that provides a classic, minimalist look, highlighting the 1-inch thickness of the solid wood top.
For a standard 60-inch to 72-inch table, we recommend the 48-inch or 60-inch bench to ensure it can be tucked neatly underneath when not in use. If you have a larger table, the 72-inch option provides maximum seating capacity.
Yes, the premium finishes are designed for longevity and daily wear. Because the bench is crafted from solid hardwoods, it is highly durable and can be easily maintained with standard wood care products.
