Know before you buy
Hard Maple, Hickory, and Quarter Sawn White Oak are among the densest, most impact-resistant woods available. While all our solid hardwood options are built to last, these species are particularly well-suited for high-traffic areas where the bench might experience frequent wear.
A good rule of thumb is to choose a bench that is roughly 6 to 12 inches shorter than the length of your table. This allows the bench to slide neatly underneath the table when not in use, providing a clean look and saving floor space.
The Cleora bench features a smooth, flat seat design. While it does not have a deep ergonomic contour, the solid wood surface is finished to a smooth, comfortable texture suitable for standard dining or entryway use.
Rustic wood species include natural character marks such as small knots, mineral streaks, and color variations that are typically removed in standard grades. Choosing a rustic option highlights the organic beauty of the timber and provides a more casual, authentic aesthetic.
Yes, its 12 1/2-inch depth makes it an excellent choice for narrow spaces like hallways, foyers, or at the foot of a bed. Its sturdy construction ensures it can handle daily use as a seating area for putting on shoes or as a decorative display surface.
The Cleora Trestle Bench is typically shipped with the legs detached to ensure safe transit. Basic assembly is required, which involves attaching the legs to the seat using the provided hardware.
