Outdoor benches
Two outdoor benches on black powder-coated stainless steel, welded in our own factory in Sweden. Hedvig has a slatted teak seat, Wilma a seat of Dekton sintered stone. Both come 25.5, 39.5 or 51 in long with the seat at 18 in, the same height as our patio dining chairs, so a bench can take one side of the table.

Guides and answers
In-depth guides, one question each, and quick answers to the most common questions.
- Garden Table With Benches: Lengths, Seat Height and How Many FitPair a 30 in garden table with an 18 in bench that is shorter than the gap between the legs, and put chairs with backs at the ends.
- Bench Size Guide: Length, Depth and Seat HeightAllow 50-23.5 in per adult on a bench, with an 18.1 in seat and about 15.4 to 15.7 in of depth.
- Dining Bench With Chairs: Height, Length and How to Pair ThemA dining bench should sit at about 18.1 in for a 30 in table and be shorter than the gap between the table legs so it slides under.

Materials & care
- Best Wood for Garden Furniture: Teak vs Acacia, Eucalyptus and PineTeak is the best wood for garden furniture because its natural oils let it last untreated; acacia and eucalyptus need regular oil, and pine needs pressure treatment and paint.
- Teak Garden Furniture: Grade A, FSC and Why It Costs MoreGood teak garden furniture is grade A heartwood, FSC-certified, on a frame that cannot rust; it costs more because teak grows slowly and only the heartwood makes grade A.
- How to Clean and Care for Teak Outdoor Furniture: Oil or SilverTeak garden furniture needs no treatment: left alone it turns silver-gray, oiled every year it stays honey-brown.
- Steel or Aluminum Garden Furniture? Stainless, Powder-Coated and Aluminum ComparedStainless steel under a powder coat is the metal garden furniture that stays out all year; aluminum is lighter to carry but moves in wind, and plain steel and iron rust where the coat breaks.
- Black Garden Furniture: Sun, Dirt, Ageing and Pairing With Teak and StoneBlack garden furniture hides soil and scuffs and goes with teak and stone; it warms in direct sun, so sit on teak, mesh or a cushion, and choose stainless steel under the black.
- Weatherproof Garden Furniture: Which Materials Really LastGarden furniture that lasts outside has stainless steel frames, teak or sintered stone surfaces and solution-dyed olefin cushions.
4 questions
Frequently asked questions
Which length do I need?
A 51 in bench takes one side of a 63 in table with room at the ends. 25.5 and 39.5 in suit a balcony, an entryway or a spot by the wall. Wilma in Lunar comes in 25.5 in only.
Teak or stone?
Teak is warm to sit on, drains through its slats and weathers to silver-gray unless you oil it once a year. Dekton stone does not fade in the sun or crack in frost and needs no sealing.
Can a bench stay outside all year?
Yes. Both frames are stainless steel under a black powder coat, and both seats are made for weather.
How is Hedvig delivered?
Hedvig ships flat and goes together with eight bolts.

Before you choose
Five things worth knowing.
Length, teak or stone, weather, teak and care.
Which length do I need?
25.6, 39.4 or 51.2 in, with the seat at 18.1 in.
Both benches come 25.6, 39.4 or 51.2 in long, with the seat at 18.1 in, the same height as our garden dining chairs, so a bench can take one side of the table. A 51.2 in bench takes one side of a 63 in table with room at the ends; 25.6 and 39.4 in suit a balcony, an entrance or a spot by the wall. Wilma in Lunar comes in 25.6 in only.

Teak or stone?
Warm teak slats, or a Dekton stone seat.
Teak is warm to sit on, drains through its slats and weathers to silver-grey unless you oil it once a year. Dekton sintered stone does not fade in the sun or crack in frost and needs no sealing. Both frames are stainless steel with a black powder coat. Hedvig ships flat and goes together with eight bolts.

What survives outside?
Stainless steel, teak, sintered stone, solution-dyed olefin.
Most of our garden frames are stainless steel (EN 10088, 1.4306, AISI 304L), powder-coated black and welded in Sweden. Seats and tops are A-grade teak, Dekton sintered stone or olefin cushions, chosen because they cope with sun, rain and frost.
Does teak need oiling?
No. Left alone, it weathers to silver-grey.
Our teak is A-grade plantation teak, bought as FSC-certified timber and slatted so rain drains through. Untreated, it turns an even silver-grey and lasts. If you prefer the warm honey tone, oil it once a year. Wash it in spring with water and a soft brush.
- Teak
- HedvigA-grade, FSC timber
How do I look after it?
Once a year, in spring. Never a pressure washer.
Wash teak with water, mild soap and a soft brush; wipe powder-coated steel with a damp cloth; clean Dekton with any household cleaner. A pressure washer can damage both teak and the powder coat, so leave it in the shed.
