My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Can you sit on this bench to take your shoes off?

8 years ago
I want to make sure it is strong enough to hold an average size person.

    Hi,

    The most weight we've sat on the bench is about 250lbs and the bench held very well. We do not test these benches because, using a reclaimed wood, the maximum capacity can vary from piece to piece though every bench is capable of sitting at least one average size person. Hope this helps!

    Thanks!
