Gardencove I Black Bench

While customer assembly is required, the bench is designed for straightforward home setup. It comes with detailed instructions and a simplified part count. To ensure long-term stability and prevent the bench from becoming wobbly over time, we recommend tightening the bolts firmly during assembly and performing a quick "tune-up" check of the fasteners after the first few weeks of daily use.

This bench features a seat height of 16 inches. While this is slightly lower than a standard dining chair’s 18-inch height, it is an ideal "low-profile" height for an entryway or mudroom. This lower center of gravity makes it easier for children or adults to sit comfortably while putting on or removing shoes, and its compact vertical footprint allows it to fit neatly under windows or low-hanging wall decor.

The bench is engineered with a high-durability metal frame and straight legs, providing a stable and robust foundation. While specific weight limits can vary, a metal-framed bench of this 45-inch width is typically designed to comfortably support two adults. The straight-leg design ensures weight is distributed evenly to the floor, minimizing the "wobble" often found in lighter-duty decorative furniture.

This bench is an excellent solution for urban living or narrow corridors. With a depth of just 16 inches, it maintains a slim profile that provides functional seating without obstructing walkways or blocking door swings. Its open-base metal frame also creates a sense of "visual airiness," making a small space feel less cluttered while still offering the utility of a 45-inch wide seating surface.

Yes, the polyurethane (faux leather) upholstery is exceptionally well-suited for high-traffic zones like entryways and dining rooms. Unlike genuine leather or porous fabrics, polyurethane is water-resistant and non-absorbent. This means spills from food or moisture from wet coats can be easily wiped away with a damp cloth, preventing stains and making it a practical, "pet-friendly" choice that doesn't trap hair or odors.

The bench features a "Farmhouse-Luxe" aesthetic, characterized by the contrast between its industrial metal frame and a warm wood panel accent. This blend of materials allows it to bridge multiple decor styles—it can add a modern edge to a rustic farmhouse dining room or bring a grounded, organic touch to a contemporary, minimalist living space.
