Every patio collects a little chaos by sunset, and this is the piece that quietly puts it away. Lift the lid on its solid gas struts and 34 gallons of storage open up beneath the seat, sized at 38 x 17.5 x 12 in to swallow throw pillows, rolled blankets, pool floats, and the hand tools that never seem to have a drawer of their own. A Pu-coated liner zips over your things to keep dust and grit out, so the cushions you packed away in April feel fresh again in June.The bench itself is built the way outdoor furniture should be: polyethylene wicker hand-woven over a strengthened metal frame that supports up to 795 lbs of seated weight. Pull the 40 x 19 x 17 in bench up to a fire pit and it seats guests on a foam cushion with a zip-off, washable cover slide it between two loungers and the flat lid plays coffee table for a pitcher and a stack of paperbacks.Recessed cut-out handles on both ends make it easy to shift as the party moves, and assembly is a straightforward afternoon task with the included instructions. Keep it under a covered porch or awning out of direct rain, and it will keep tidying up after your evenings for seasons to come.
