Great Ideas From Many Reviewers
5 out of 5 stars
Great Ideas From Many Reviewers
Reviewing of the reviews had some really great ideas. I did use the #12 1 1/2" long screws (stainless). I added #12 washers (stainless). I used the 2 x 6 for the top of the back. I used extreme weather treated lumber, sanded, edges rounded with a router, minwax golden pecan stain and minwax spar urethane. Treated lumber is infamous for warping so, I used 4 stringers on the 2 lower 2x4s cut to match angles and attached with 3" deck screws. I also made 2 strings for the seat bottom and seat back (photo). I traced the wood to the curvature of the end plate for the seat bottom and back stringers, and cut with my bandsaw (photo). On the back seat stringers I used 12 2 1/2" deck screws on each the of the stringers. The 2 seat stingers were tapered front and rear I use 2 1/2" (2) deck screws for the front and back of those and 3" (6) for the others, their height is also slightly shortened to fit between the seat and the 2 bottom 2 x 4s. (Note: If the seat bottom stringer touches the bottom 2x4 stringers the slight flexing will give you a squeak. I would space them about a 1/4" away). Hopefully, this will hold down on any warpage that may occur. The 3/4" spacer for the front 2x4 was exact for leveling the table ends. I used extreme weather treated 1 x 4 for the table end and routered the periphery ends top and bottom. I extended the end of the tables out 3/4" at the right and left ends and made the slats 22" long and aligned them with the edges of the composite end pieces. I started with the outer most board of the table tops hanging over 3/4" and used 1/4" spacers between the slats, working my way toward the seat. I used 2 1/2" deck screws on the front of the slates due to the 3/4" spacer and 2" deck screws on the rear of the slats. I made the bench 60", so the 2 x 4 lumber was cut to 67", using approximately 3/4" overhang to ensure wood would not split even using pilot holes for all screws. I cut 3/8" 2 x4 spacers for the seat bottom as indicated in the directions, this caused the last seat board installed to have no wood at the manufactured slots (3/8" off). I had to drill a 1/4" hole on each of the bench ends to give me enough wood to screw in to (photo). I would highly using only 1/4" 2 x4 spacers vice the 3/8" for the seat that should keep the tolerance buildup down and get the last board slots closer to where they should be. All in all I want to thank all of the reviewers for their ideas and hopefully some will use mine. Great project but in the Florida heat it was a killer should have been a winter project, lol.

Top reviews from the United States

  • Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2021
    My first reason for choosing this product was because I wanted an inexpensive yet durable bench for an undeveloped wooded property on Lake Michigan where there is no structure of any kind for shelter. That means this will be outdoors ALL the time. I thought this plastic/composite material along with treated lumber would be just the right thing for longevity in the woods.

    Well, upon completion I'd say it seems this was the right choice. It seems very sturdy but it was not as inexpensive or as easy as I thought. I'm not a builder so I don't know any of the tricks of the trade, therefore, my projects often come out as something less than professional looking. However, I think this project came out just fine.

    As for expense...have you seen the price of lumber these days!!!??? (ref. May 5, 2021) Holy Toledo! I paid $48 for the bench brackets and $91 for wood. Plus about $14 for better screws. So, not as cheap as I'd hoped but still not bad for the what I ended up with. It's a nice, sturdy, comfortable, heavy, weatherproof bench and that's exactly what I wanted. But let me share a couple of points that might be helpful to others.

    As other reviewers have said, it isn't super easy to build all by yourself. Especially the "seat boards" for which you need to turn the bench over to access the screw slots. Soooo, since I was working alone, I heeded the advice to have a couple of large clamps at the ready and they were a life saver! I clamped the boards to the frame, measured, made adjustments as necessary, drilled pilot holes and screwed them on. Without clamps or a helper, I don't think I could have done it...at least not without it looking like a Jr, High shop project.

    Another thing that I think helps is to cut your boards an inch too long (or, if you bought 6' 2X4s, bring the brackets inward a total of one inch). That gives you a half an inch of overhang on each end. The reason for this is that many of the screw slots are on the outermost edges of the brackets which means that the screws go in very close to the ends of the lumber if you don't give it the extra space. The problem with that is splitting. Might even be an issue with longevity if too much movement on the bench causes stresses on the screws, thereby splitting the wood that way too. So leave a little extra room and DO drill pilot holes.

    Some genius builder also suggested using 8ft 2X4s in the bottom slots of the brackets, thereby leaving an extension sticking out on each side upon which to place boards, creating "end tables". I did this but made one modification: The slots for the front of the braces are about 3/4" lower than the ones for the rear of the braces. If you put boards across for a table, it will end up being slanted forward and anything that CAN roll WILL. Since I used 1X4s for my "table tops" (2X4s seemed too heavy and chunky to me) I simply "ripped" a short piece down the middle to and cut it to the length of the extensions to make a nice shim. That made the table level. (I used exterior deck screws for the table tops and the shim pieces.)

    As another reviewer offered, I DID pay for screws that were heavier (#12s instead of #10s) and half an inch longer for a better grip (1-1/2" instead of 1"). I used square drive because I dislike phillips or slotted screws. And I bought stainless steel because this bench will always be out in the elements. (I'll probably use something like "Thompson's" sealer on it too.)

    One other thing that was a "life saver" (credit going to another reviewer) was to have a rubber mallet on hand. I actually picked one up at Dollar Tree for a buck and it worked like a charm. The two bottom brace 2X4s went in hard. I could not force them in by hand and I am not weak. So, I pounded on the brackets to force them onto the 2X4s and I'm happy to report that the brackets showed no sign of abuse
    whatsoever.

    I'm quite pleased with the end result (see photo). This bench is heavy (probably around 100 lbs.) It seems very sturdy, steady and durable so I hope it lasts a long time. And it seems pretty comfortable to sit on, considering it's wood.

So, I pounded on the brackets to force them onto the 2X4s and I'm happy to report that the brackets showed no sign of abuse
    whatsoever.

    I'm quite pleased with the end result (see photo). This bench is heavy (probably around 100 lbs.) It seems very sturdy, steady and durable so I hope it lasts a long time. And it seems pretty comfortable to sit on, considering it's wood.

    This was my first time building something other than assembling Ikea furniture and was completely lost at first but felt like a pro at the end. Overall, I am so happy with the bench; although, I must say reading previous reviews helped tremendously! It took me some days to finish this, since I had to wait for the stain to dry and settle, and it ended up being more expensive than I planned but way more rewarding than just buying an assembled bench.

    For those who are also newbies to building things, below are the suggestions I used. Maybe it'll help you out too.

    1. Purchased redwood for my wood. It's more expensive but I wanted this bench to last so I went with a higher quality wood. Also, when looking for wood, try to find the best pieces you can, without any sap leaking from it or chipped pieces. Seriously, I felt like I went swimming into the pile of wood at Home Depot (literally, all people could see were my legs sticking out) to find 5 decent pieces because most of them were pretty bad off, but it was worth it. :)

    2. Bought 5 pieces of 8' and had Home Depot cut them in half. I wanted the finished bench to be around 3-4' so this worked great. Also, remember to subtract about 5.5" to the board length you are getting, to compensate for the width of the chair arms. My finished bench was about 3.5'.

    3. Used a wood stain/sealer. I went with Behr Atlantic Semi-Transparent Waterproofing Exterior Wood Stain and Sealer. I only needed a quart, and that worked great for two coats. I also chose semi-transparent over solid, since I wanted some texture from the wood to come through.

    4. Sanded the wood before staining it and rounded the edges. This took longer than anticipated, but it was so worth it to have those beautiful round edges and a smooth surface to paint on.

    5. Used a plain ol' foam brush. I tried a different brush (and more expensive) but honestly, the foam brush had a more even coat in the end.

    6. Bought #10 x 1-1/2" Stainless Steel Fence & Deck Screws to use instead of the ones that came in the box. Here's a link to the ones I got on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PRXM53R/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    7. Left about 1/2" off the edges, instead of putting the wood perfectly aligned with the chair arms, to prevent the wood from splitting. I didn't mind seeing a little extra wood on both sides of the bench.

    8. Used clamps. I assembled this on my own and using clamps helped to keep the wood in place while I screwed in the screws. Also, I put the clamp on while I was adjusting the wood, which helped me get a precise measurement for the spacing. The clamp would hold the wood in place, and I could move the piece slightly to the right or left to get it just right.

    9. Assembled the bottom pieces of the bench by going under it, instead of turning it upside-down. Also, I assembled the pieces in the front and back first, then I just moved the middle two pieces forward or backward slightly to get the right spacing. While using clamps, this process ended up being really simple.

    10. Used a power drill and a regular screw-driver. I found that the power drill worked great, but to really tighten the screws at the end, I preferred to use a screw-driver.

    Well, I hope those tips help someone else and that the bench turns out fabulously. :) Thank you to everyone else for all of your suggestions and tips!

    Reviewed in Mexico on February 19, 2021
    Se ve muy bonita. Pero es inestable. Tiene algo de movimiento hacia los costados. Es un defecto de diseño. Recomiendo mas como algo estetico, que de uso.

    Aun con sus 9 maderas de 1.5 pulgadas, resulta inestable.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent design.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 3, 2015
    This was designed for imperial wood sizes (USA). Getting a match to the UK's "metricated" sizes can be a bit of a trial if you don't have access to woodworking equipment. My advice is to get the timber from someone who can actually cut/plane to the sizes required and all will be well.

    I now have three of these and they are in a very exposed location close to the sea. They are coping well with the sea the sun and the rain. I expect the frames to outlast the timber.

    すてきなベンチです。

    ベンチの幅は、6フィートまで可能ですが、5フィートまでぐらいがいいと思います。
    それ以上の時は、中央部分が歪むので補強が必要になります。
    15年前に背もたれのない2×4basicのベンチを購入しましたが、木材は何度か替えましたが、足の部分は問題なく使え頑丈です。
    木材を9本使うので重量はあります。
    また、屋外で雨ざらしになる場合は、木材に塗料を塗る方が長持ちします。

    Okay so this is the best park bench you will ever find, period. Not only does it go together in under an hour easily. But it’s actually fun and oddly satisfying to put together.
    A few things… leave a 1/4 inch or so overhang on the outside to avoid cracking the wood. I used “cedar” and I am not treating it with anything. Plus I drilled skinny little pilot holes first to insure no cracking.
    And… if you look at my picture you will notice I put one extra 2X4 piece, below the three back pieces and screwed it in just under the armrest. I think it looks better, it’s more sturdy, although it was plenty sturdy to begin with, and now my dog doesn’t slip through the back of it when he sits beside me.
