Storage Bench, 135 x 41 x 42 cm, Grey

This storage bench is the right height for pulling boots on, with storage underneath and a top that takes a bag and the post. Finished in Grey, it brings a soft block of colour without shouting over everything else in the room.

Upholstered in Velvet with high-density foam underneath, it absorbs weight quietly and springs back into shape once you stand up. The seat platform is reinforced rather than stapled, which is why it does not dip in the middle after a few months.

Key features

• Doors and drawers are aligned before the unit leaves the factory, so the gaps stay even once it is built
• The unit sits flat once the feet are levelled, which keeps the doors closing cleanly on an uneven floor
• Fittings are all accessible from the front, so nothing has to be taken apart to adjust a shelf or a hinge
• Dimensions: 135 x 41 x 42 cm (L x W x H)
• Weight: 24.4 kg
• Materials: Velvet
• Colour: Grey

A good fit beside the front door, where shoes come off and bags land. Keep it clear of radiators, where constant heat can dry out the finish over a few winters.

For routine care, vacuum the upholstery on a low setting and blot spills straight away with a dry cloth; a barely damp cloth handles marks without soaking the padding.

Sit down, take your shoes off, put them away.
