Dining benches are all about practicality and maximising the space. They slide neatly under the table when not in use to help save valuable floor space. This is especially helpful in compact rooms or open-plan layouts. Unlike dining chairs, benches can seat more people, making them perfect for families or people who love to host guests frequently. They also add a more casual, communal feel to the dining room, striking that perfect balance between style and practicality.
The right dining bench to choose is one that is around 10-12 inches shorter than the length of your table for comfortable access and a balanced look. Also make make sure that there is enough clearance (usually about 12 inches) between the seat and the tabletop. If you're going for a corner bench arrangement, consider your layout and measure the space carefully to see if it fits. A dining table with a pedestal base provides the most space underneath for such benches.
It depends on your space and how you use it. A dining bench with back offers extra comfort and support for those long dinners with a restaurant-style seating aesthetic. Regular benches without backrests, on the other hand, have a clean, minimalist look and can be tucked away completely under the table, freeing up room. They are useful for smaller spaces or if you want a more open feel around the table.
While designed with the dining room in mind, benches are incredibly adaptable. A wooden dining bench works just as well in an entryway as it does by the dining table. Tuck one into a breakfast nook, slide it along a kitchen wall, or use it as occasional seating in a home office or guest room. They're practical wherever you need an extra seat without the bulk.
For wooden benches, a regular dusting and occasional polish will keep the grain looking rich. Fabric dining benches may need occasional spot cleaning or a fabric protector to resist stains from daily use. If you have chosen a leather dining bench or faux leather, a soft cloth and mild cleanser will help it stay supple and clean. Always follow the care guide specific to your bench for best results.
Whether you're after a sleek bench for a modern kitchen or a rustic wooden piece for the family dining room, our collection has something to suit every home.
