Dining bench guide: corner bench, custom-made and combining with your dining table

A dining bench makes your dining area cozy, spacious and inviting. More and more people choose a bench instead of separate chairs: you slide in easily, save space and create a warm atmosphere. In this guide you will read which types exist, when a corner bench or a custom model is the best choice, and how to combine the bench with your dining table.

Why choose a dining bench?

A dining bench seats more people on fewer square meters. Against the wall or in a corner you make optimal use of the space, and children slide in easily. A continuous seating line also brings calm to the interior.

The corner dining bench

Do you have a corner in your dining room? Then a corner dining bench is ideal. A corner model fills the space completely and offers the most seats. Combine it with separate chairs on the other side for flexibility.

Custom dining bench

No standard size fits? Have your dining bench made to measure, matched to the length of your dining table and the color of your interior. That way everything fits together seamlessly.

Combining with your dining table

Match the bench to the shape of your dining table. A straight bench fits perfectly under a rectangular or Danish oval dining table; a corner bench works beautifully with a sturdy wooden dining table.
