Tessmar Norddepil Upholstered Bench

A 43 inch wide upholstered bench on splayed rubberwood legs, with a button-tufted polyester top and a 250 pound rating.

The listed footprint is 43 inches wide and 16 inches deep, with the seat 18.5 inches off the floor. Tape that rectangle before you park it in an entryway or at the foot of a bed.

• A low, tufted bench

  This is a compact seat, not a sofa: a single upholstered block on four splayed, tapered legs, with no back or arms to speak of. The dark gray top rounds softly at the corners, and the legs angle outward for a mid-century stance.

• Button-tufted grid top

  Button tufting pulls the dark gray upholstery into a neat grid of soft squares across most of the cushion top, giving it texture without any pattern printed on the fabric. A narrow smooth border frames the tufted area before the cushion curves down toward the legs.

• Legs pack inside, thread on

  The four legs ship tucked inside the benchtop rather than in a separate box, so assembly is just threading them on by hand once you unpack it. It is a minor, tool-light job with no hardware to hunt for beyond what came packed with the legs.

• Spot clean or mild soap

  Spot clean the upholstery for everyday marks, or use mild soap and water on a cloth for anything more stubborn; work in small sections and let it air dry rather than soaking the cushion. Regular light dusting keeps the wood legs looking fresh.

• Seats two, foam filled

  The cushion is foam filled under the tufted upholstery, giving it enough give to sit on without bottoming out. At 18.5 inches off the floor, it seats two people comfortably side by side, more of a perch than a lounge spot for a full afternoon.

• One box, 43 inches wide

  At 43 inches wide, 16 inches deep, and just 17.64 pounds, this bench is light enough for one person to carry through a doorway without help, and small enough to clear most stairwells turned on its side if a hallway is tight.

• Solid rubberwood, foam fill

  The frame and the splayed legs are both solid rubberwood, at 13.39 inches tall on their own, so most of the bench's height comes from the legs rather than a thick cushion. Foam is the fill under the tufted top, over the solid wood seat base.

• Dark gray tufted polyester

  Upholstery is a dark gray polyester with a heathered, textured weave, foam filled and pulled into the tufted grid across the top. The same fabric wraps the sides and front in one continuous piece, with no seams breaking up the color.

• One bench, legs included

  What arrives is the benchtop with the four legs packed inside it, ready to thread on; there is no separate ottoman, cushion cover, or tool kit included beyond that. No warranty is listed by the manufacturer, so treat the 250 pound rating as the hard limit.

Good to know

• Tape a 43 by 16 inch rectangle; that is the full footprint including the legs.
• Seat height is 18.5 inches off the floor; check that against nearby furniture.
• At 17.64 pounds it is light enough for one person to carry and place.
• Rated to 250 pounds, so plan on two people sitting at once, not a crowd.
• Minor assembly: thread the four legs into the seat frame. The bench itself arrives in one carton.
• One upholstered bench with four legs is included. Rugs, plants, and other room items are styling only.
