Indoor Benches

Compare backless and high-back indoor benches

Seats come with a wide variety of back support levels. Some models are backless, which makes placing these options against walls ideal, as it allows visitors to lean against something sturdy while sitting. When placed away from walls, backless selections can also serve as footrests or tables. Other models have standard or high-back designs. This type of bench seating is optimal for waiting rooms and locations where visitors need to sit for long stretches of time.

Choosing between armed and armless bench seating

Armed seats provide support to users, making it easy for them to enjoy a book or play on a tablet while they wait. Armless models are often slightly narrower than those with armrests, offering convenience in small areas. Rests also provide the ideal home for decorative pillows or blankets.

Use a bench with storage space in small rooms

Make full use of free space with storage furniture. Some office bench options have cabinet-style storage. On these models, the seat lifts up to reveal deep holding areas. This feature maximizes visual organization. The other choice is cubbie-style benches. These benches with storage have open cubbyholes below the seats, typically featuring a front-facing open design. This is optimal for frequently used items that need to stay close at hand, such as outdoor wear and backpacks.

Explore building materials for office bench models

From a standard waiting room bench to a kitchen bench with extra storage space, this type of seating features a variety of materials. Consider the decor in the room and how frequently you expect people to use the seating.
