It was dark when I did this review, but it looks amazing in the sunshine
Looks good once assembled
Main problem was we had to drill out each screw hole. These were either pilot holes or just not prepared properly for the size of screws Real pain in the proverbial.
One year later, took a seat and the entire backrest snapped away. Disappointing.
Sturdy seat and comfortable took the wood preserver well now in my garde
Good Garden bench, confortable also. very pleased with it. did not take long to assamble.
I bought this for my daughter and son in law as an early xmas pressie. It took 2 of us to put it together and about 2 hours. Very sturdy so therefore good value for money
A bit too lightweight would of preferred a heavier sturdier material as it was for my front garden but have had to have it in the back as it would only take one person to lift and walk off with it
looks nice overall and very comfy
I got screwed around a bit. I ended up with two benches by hand I put four lats on which took me two days when I got my electric screwdriver It took me just over five minutes to put the final six on I must say what a beautiful bench it is absolutely solid well worth the money and hastle if the need ever arose again I would not hesitate to buy again. I’m often on it of a night having a brew with my last rolly before I head off to bed. My verdict 10/10 for finished product 10/10 for customer service polite kind and sincere all the way Amy you need a pay rise
oh im so pleased with it!
I was abit daunted to try to build this myself as the box was heavy (petite lady in her twenties)
but was quite easy although I had to drill bigger holes in the wood for the screws.
it’s extremely comfortable and I would highly recommend.
The second photo was as it was being painted, it looked nice as it is but I want it to last for years to come
Very quick delivery to Scottish Highlands. Many don’t deliver up here so getting it was a bonus and getting it quickly was an ever bigger bonus. Went together easily and quickly. Very sturdy.
Easy to put together, solid parts and an iseal shape for bums and backs
It’s a well-finished and sturdy piece of garden furniture. It’s easy to assemble too but you’ll need strong arms and a hefty screwdriver.
A nice, sturdy garden bench. Easy to assemble (get electric screwdriver ready). A perfect size for 2 adults rather than 3. The wood quality for some bars could be slightly better, thus 4 stars. Generally I am very happy with the purchase. It is comfortable too so we don’t need any cushions.
Super simple to put together and due to the way the bench curves it is seriously comfortable to sit on. This is by far a much more pleasant sitting experience than a traditional flat seat bench! Can’t recommend this item enough!!!
Bench is great quality and very comfortable, however assembly was not straight forward, the holes weren’t always large enough for screws, even my electric screwdriver struggled at times
Really strong bench, I’m hoping it will last for year’s
Very easy to put together, lovely sturdy and comfortable bench, delighted with i
This is a very solid and comfortable seat. It painted up really well.
This product good quality and is very easy to assemble
The seat is strongly made of planks of a good thickness. The curved design of the backrest is very comfortable.
Putting the seat together was relatively easy and I treated all the components with a coat of wood preserver prior to assembly.
Delivery was prompt and all components were provided.
Really pleased with bench. Easy to assemble. Very comfortable. Plenty of compliments.
Looks great Easily assembled by one person Really comfortable Very happy
Great garden bench. The instructions recommend when assembling ‘don’t tighten up the bolts until you’ve fastened the cross-sections.’ The screws thread their way through the pre-drilled holes in the cross-sections, hence when you tighten up the screws it will leave a gap between the two surfaces if you are not careful. It is easy to assemble as a two-person job. I personally find it comfortable.
Don’t waste your time looking for any other garden bench, this is superb. It’s so easy to put together, took about 2mins using a cordless drill.
It’s sturdy, very comfortable and large enough for 2 of us and our Jackapoos.
Ignore negative reviews, it’s simple to put together, holes line up. In fact we liked it so much we’ve bought a second one
You’ll need a drill to speed things up, but it’s sturdy and looks grea
Great looking bench. Very hard to assemble – had to re drill the holes as the screws were too big for them and was too hard to screw in by hand.
We’re really happy with this bench. It makes a great addition to our relatively small garden, and it easily fits both of us sitting on it at the same time. It arrived promptly and was fairly easy for my boyfriend to assemble. I think it took him about 30 minutes using a power tool, and with my help holding the pieces over the right places. We have to agree with other reviews that the screws were difficult to get, and they are fairly visible at the end, but this doesn’t bother us. We also agree with other reviews suggesting the bench can be a little uncomfortable to sit on. It’s no issue for my boyfriend but i find one of the pieces of wood sticks a little in to my spine. This hasn’t stopped me enjoying sitting on it and I’m planning to use a cushion if I sit for longer periods reading over the summer. Very good value for the price and would definitely purchase again if we needed a replacement.
Fairly easy to put together and straight forward. Solid and good quality, glad we bought i
I really like this bench. It’s more unusual than a standard flat bench. It looks really great in the garden. The bench is comfortable and sturdy. Very easy to put together. Highly recommend.
Arrived ahead of schedule which was a bonus. Good simple instructions should have had this assembled in no time. However this is not going to be the case as there is no hope of assembling it with a normal screwdriver as indicated on the instructions. The screws are simply too big for the tiny pilot holes drilled into the frame. I now need to acquire an electric screwdriver if I am to get the job finished. Looks like a great bench, just can’t use it at present….
product is very sturdy, and heavy, so should pass the test of time.
Easy to put together with some basic DIY skills. Wood isnt the greatest quality, but with some sandpaper and paint – looks great now, for the money, good value.
I will buy another once back in stock…. so what more do you need to know.
very happy!
Excellent service very quick, easy to assemble, looks lovely and very sturdy.
This was delivered extremely quickly, the box was in pristine condition, assembly was easy. Me, my wife and 2 children sit on it and there’s no creaks or bends, really well made.
Arrived well before time easy to assemble built well looks good in my garde
I’m really impressed with the quality and sturdiness of this bench, for the price I think this is excellent value for money. It’s very comfortable and is a good size for 2-3 people to comfortably sit on.
In terms of the assembly, I completely agree with other reviewers here and strongly recommend using an impact driver to assemble the bench. Without a power tool, this would have been a lot more tricky and time consuming to assemble. As you’d expect for a slightly cheaper item, the holes in the slats and the markers in the frame didn’t quite match up in some places, so the impact driver was essential in assembly.
Overall, I’d definitely recommend buying this if you’re looking for a solid bench that isn’t too expensive.
Wanted something comfy to sit on while my little girl plays outside and this is ideal – very comfy, very sturdy and a great price. Husband put it together by himself in less than an hour with just an ordinary Phillips screwdriver – all the pieces went together easily.
Delivery was also excellent – ordered 3.30pm Thursday afternoon and it arrived Friday morning.
One plank had a slight split in it which I glued but it does look good and arrived quickly.
Feels comfortable although I painted it so haven’t really had a chance to try it out.
So far so good I’d recommend it.
Quality bench for a competitive price. Will buy another once garden finished. Was delivered inside 36 hours.
his is a lovely bench, simple to assemble by a single person and quit comfortable to sit upon although i have got a cushion to accentuate the pleasure. i recommend that you paint it as soon as you get it, it takes one coat and looks wonderful
Very simple to put together with predrilled holes to help you along the way. Beatiful curve and very comfortable.
Snags with the first bench but a new one was sent out immediately. Comfortable and great value
Pleasantly surprised at the quality of this bench for the money – sure, it’s softwood, but for the price it delivers a lot. Pretty easy to set up – used the screws supplied and had no trouble with alignment – one spar was a little shaved on the edge but not noticeable in use. The wood is treated but I added an additional solvent based protector . The bench is similar in style to many of those in France – a little different to the usual; quite chic.

Qualifying Comments:
– Needs a lot of concentration
and reasonable DIY skills to assemble
– The attractive design comes with a “gotcha” in that it is hard for the less nimble to get up from the seat.
This bench has great reviews and wasn’t too expensive. The colour should fade nicely over time. A friend assembled it for me in no time – there are only a few parts to put together … an impact driver speeds the process. It’s a good solid bench but I can move it easily enough. Two very small criticisms … the screws are very visible which I wish I could disguise, and if the slats were slightly closer together it would be more comfortable I think. I can sort that with cushions. Extremely pleased overall and might buy another one.
Great item, i have 4 of these now. They changed the design and now the top is flat to put a drink on. Very sturdy.
Delivery was very quick. A good sized bench fitting 3 easily. I wasn’t over impressed with some of the timber used, it appeared to be chipped at the end of one slat and one of the supports was angled through a large knot. Hopefully it will still support 3 people in years to come.
We bought this bench after lots of searching and have to say it fits our needs perfectly. It is solid, hard wearing and very comfortable. The bench is for the front of our house as a seat for the parents while the children play; everyone who sees it asks where we purchased it from as it looks amazing. We have seen the exact bench at local garden centres but this is the best price by far!
+ Easy to assemble and excellent value
+ Sturdy, good quality pressure treated timber.
– One of the screws had to be substituted for one with a longer length as it was too short.
We love this bench and it took less than an hour to be assembled it is comfortable and really sturdy. The only down side was that after assembly one of the slats was split, but with a bit of wood glue it was fine. Great product!
Easy to put together and very sturdy but not quite as comfortable as I had expected, I am on the skinny side so maybe that has something to do with it. I am sure that I will get used to it as it gets more usage with the better weather coming though. Aesthetically very pleasing.
Arrived quickly. Is rather heavy when in the box. I further treated the wood with two coats of Danish oil to seal the wood, but it was not mandatory to do this. Assembled quickly using a screw gun. Only detraction being that the holes did not line up on some and the front slat had an oversized hole on one side. As I was using an screw gun the misalignment did not matter and a couple of toothpicks took care of the oversized hole.
As has been commented by one or two other reviewers, this is a fine bench, sturdy and appears well-made. However, there are niggles too. They do not detract from the finished bench but that is the key word – to get this to be its best you could consider finishing it off.
Firstly, not all of the main bars that go across are exactly the same length. Believe it or not, this is true. Some are just ever so slightly out, maybe 1cm or something like that. You can hardly tell. It doesn’t detract from the bench, but it’s just weird that you’d expect they’d all come off the same machine at the same time? One of the bars was also not chamfered at one end… maybe someone forgot? Plus the screw hole guides in the two legs don’t line-up correctly with the holes in the bars – so I had to just drive on through and force the screws into the wood where there was no pilot hole.
I’ll reiterate, though – I like this bench. What I did was this… I got all the parts together and I sanded them with an orbital sander at 230 grit – just to smooth it down a bit as the wood is still quite rough… this was a light sanding only… it just made everything feel better. Then I put some wood hardener into the feet and let it soak in (I had it handy, so I just thought I would). Then I rubbed linseed oil into all of the parts before assembling.
You need a PZ3 bit to drive the screws and I used an impact driver as I was going into solid wood… job done in hardly any time at all. The whole thing took me an afternoon because of the sanding and oiling but the bench now looks a very attractive golden colour. I’m pleased with it and I’m hoping that it will stand the test of time. It’s rigid and not actually that heavy.
I even though I could make this myself while putting it together… I might give it a go and make one even longer and even more sturdy. I didn’t think pine would cut it (no pun intended) but I bet it will be fine.
Good quality benches although be aware that for a larger person the wave in the shape may be slightly uncomfortable. The supplier was helpful and responded well to questions.
Great product . Really easy to build with minimal tools . I was a bit apprehensive about the shape of it but the bench is really comfortable
Delivery was good, I read previous reviews about the rail near the top sticking in your back. This proved to be the case, but with a small modification, we now have a reasonably priced, comfortable bench. Robert.
Bench arrived well packed, all pieces and instructions included, pre drilled holes and countersunk screws.
This bench is substantial in character, looks good and is comfortable to sit on. I have yet to see how durable it will be in years of service.
If you like dark wood you would have to stain it as it is pale pine. I liked it as it is and treated it with wood oil, which was easy to apply with a cloth. JCmo
Really great value very pleased with this garden bench, would definitely recommend.
Good solid bench, easy to put together. If you haven’t got an electric screwdriver you need a strong hand and wrist. Really pleased with it.
Arrived ahead of schedule, easy to assemble and looks great painted the sme colour as our garden cabin. Very good value
Easy to fit together and comfortable. What more could you ask for?
An excellent garden seat. I have no problems giving this 5/5 stars. Easy to build and the strong quality is evident. Although it appears treated i gave another coat and its beautiful in its place in the garden.
A lovely looking sturdy seat for the garden at a really good price when compared to garden centre offerings. My husband put it together in 13 minutes. He timed it. If I had a big enough garden Id buy another one.
Looks like it will last for ever – most comfortable garden bench I’ve ever gone to sleep on – brilliant – worth every penny. I’ve ordered another one!
A handy bench – I’ve bought two. Convenient to lie down on with a cushion under your head because of the fact there are no armrests. Great for seating a good number of children at a garden table. Good value for money.
BUT……..
after further utilisation – we’ve found the bench to be rather uncomfortable for us adults. Two of the slats dig quite harshly into your back. My husband is going to take the edges off the offending slats and sand them down.
ALSO….. for people with short legs, the bench tends to tip forward when you try to get off.
We’ll come up with some sort of solution for that. An inexpensive bench but needs a bidda tweeking.
Ok for kids though.
Delivery arrived promptly, everything present in the box. Easy to assemble, said it needed two people, but managed it easily on my own. Good solid and chunky timber, which I have treated as per instructions, so looking forward to many years of use! Very impressed and have had some good comments from friends and family. Don’t hesitate on this one!
Excellent value for money – timber well cut and treated. Quality brass fittings, easy to assemble. Would highly recommend bench, now considering where I could put a second one in our garden.If your going to carry it any distance, unpack and take sections at a time to assembly point as it is quite weighty. The Most comfortable seat ever.
practical and attractive; have it indoors!
(had aready another in the garden)l
A great garden bench very good quality and quick delivery
Beautiful bench, easy to put together and solid good value
Lovely bench. Quite heavy, very very sturdy. Very comfortable. Highly recommend
This bench is a first class product. It is sturdy and easy to assemble. I did have an issue with TNT who were responsible for the delivery, but that in no way should detract from this excellent bench which I have no hesitation in recommending.
For the price this is probably the best garden bench available and for me it was easy and fast to assemble (15 minutes), but I am tooled up with an electric screwdriver with a PZ3 bit [N.B. there’s no mention I can see of the need to have a PZ3 screwdriver, despite that being slightly larger than many DIYers would normally have to hand]. On a technical point, the pilot holes for the screws aligned pretty much exactly, but my personal preference would have been woodscrews that were a little longer, but that may well preclude self-assembly with a ‘hand’ screwdriver.
I nearly forgot to say – delivery (Express) was ‘next day’ via TNT, which was excelle
Our new bench looks lovely, it’s solid, well made & should last years. The only complaint is the angle of the second slat down from the top – the angle is a bit sharp & sticks in ones back, my husband can plane it off a bit & then all will be perfect.
Bench arrived when expected, was really easy to put together – took about 10 minutes, is really sturdy and comfy to sit on. We liked it so much we ordered another straight away. Very good value and great service!
Arrived within two days. Just like many other reviewers before me my bench arrived with the box broken open. The pack of screws and Allen key were missing. I emailed Piggy Garden and another pack screws was received within another two days. Very happy with the bench. Strong, solid but very, very heavy so beware when lifting the box. Come on Piggy Garden – put the item in a stronger carton!
Excellent, love my bench, easy to assemble and looks great!
Quality bench, extremeley comfortable, excellent price, great service would recommend this bench to anyone
It was a wedding gift, gratefully. Received. Beautifully made and great design.
Easy to assemble, and very quick delivery. Very sturdy construction and looks great. Thoroughly recommend.
A good price, free delivery, arrived sooner that expected, assembly is very easy, holes are pre-drilled and all line up for very simple assembly which took 15 minutes at the most. The wood is good quality, is nicely cut, corners removed and soft sanded. The seat is as shown in the image,
looks to be robust. Overall very pleased and would definitely recommend.
REALLY chuffed with these.
Quick and easy self-assembly, I put two of them together – on my own – in 30 minutes. Allen key is included, you’ll only need a big phillips screwdriver to complete.
They’re comfortable and solid and seat 3 to 4 people no problem.
The pale with green tinge finish proves they’ve been pressure treated (that’s the green tinge) and I’m looking forward to them ageing gracefully to silvery-grey.
The fixings are substantial and appear to be weatherproof solid brass. All the screw heads are deeply countersunk, so child and clothing friendly.
Reminds me – all the slat edges are bevelled, again no snagging and all timbers are planed and sanded all round.
The design will suit formal or informal – using them informally here around a pond and they look great to me (see photos).
You can buy other timber benches for 120 but if you look at the thickness of the slats and legs of the competition, as well as the fact the competition all have the same square boxy look, you will see that these offer a more attractive solution and way better value for money.
Might buy a couple more at some point. Recommended product and seller.
I have had this bench for over twelve months and I am very please with it. As it is softwood there are a few knots in it which add to its appearance, however recently one of the slats cracked through one of the large knots. I informed the company on July 1st enclosing a photo and today, July 4th, a package arrived with TWO replacement slats. Why can’t all companies be so switched on to customer service. Highly recommended product and highly recommended company.
This sells for 20 more on another sponsored website advertised on Amazon. Although it says the wood is pre-treated, it looked really white with a greenish hue on taking it out of the box. So I stained it with Cuprinol Weather protect to get the colour I liked as well as ensuring it lasts a few years longer (fingers crossed). It looks great and feels very sturdy. Be aware that it comes flat packed and will need assembly. Took me about an hour to screw it together. (My decision to stain it with two coats added 10 hours to the assembly time including the 3 hours drying between coats). Well worth the effort.
I ordered this yesterday morning and it arrived this morning. I’m very happy with it. Very good quality, sturdy and comfortable to sit on. Cant decide whether to paint it or leave it as it is, both would look good. A wonderful addition to my garden. Many thanks.
Really comfortable, sturdy. I bought two to create an informal seating area for my teenage daughter to hang out with friends – she loved it!
Very easy to put together and very comfortable, I have creosoted it and placed the feet on a small plank to keep them from rotting too soon !
Bench arrived quickly , was fairly easy to assemble and seems robust. The pine itself is a bit ugly but a little paint or wood stain soon sorts that problem!
am very pleased with the quality of this bench husband stained it and put it together without any problem and it seems good and sturdy excellent price too
I ordered 2 of these in the hope that they were as good as some of the other feedback suggested. I was pleasantly surprised when they arrived, quickly I must add. They are of a reasonable size, seats two comfortably and are extremely solid. Much better than many others on the market for a similar price. After a couple of coats of colour they look fantastic. Absolute bargain.
… very comfortable, easy to assemble, well made and finished – built to last. Prefer it to any I’ve seen in Garden Centres.
I was very sceptical of buying soft wood furnishings for the garden, this bench has been used so much over the last twelve months and is as good as new. Perhaps it may be because we painted it prior to using it… Just about to give it another weather proof coat of wood stain. Its really comfortable as well.
The bench was easy to put together, is comfortable and strong. I would recommend repeated painting with a good quality wood preserve.
It’s an attractive piece of garden furniture which I fully recommend.
I had been looking for a cheapish bench for a month or so in local garden centres. All the decently built ones with quality looking material were around the 150-200 mark, which was more than I wanted to spend.
Took a chance on this one, came flat packed, took me 30 mins max to put together alone.
Over the moon with the quality & price of this product.
