Know before you buy
The bench features a built-in compartment designed specifically to house your table leaves. This allows you to keep them protected and accessible right where you need them, rather than storing them in a separate closet.
While the bench is crafted from solid wood with a sturdy 1-inch thick top, it is designed for standard seating. It comfortably supports the weight of multiple adults, though we recommend avoiding concentrated heavy loads.
Yes, the 18-inch height is the industry standard for dining benches. It provides the correct ergonomic clearance to sit comfortably at any standard-height dining table.
Absolutely. You can select from various solid wood species and finish options to ensure the bench coordinates with your current furniture. We recommend ordering a wood sample if you are trying to match a specific existing stain.
The bench has a consistent depth of 12.5 inches. Depending on the length you choose—48, 60, or 72 inches—you should ensure you have enough clearance to pull the bench out from the table comfortably.
The bench is constructed with high-quality joinery typical of Amish craftsmanship. Depending on the shipping method, it may arrive fully assembled or require minimal attachment of the legs.
