I love my Farleigh 5' teak bench with small dip in seat and cushioned cover

sit with a glass of wine on its wide arm and enjoy the sunset ! Or if you

Our new teak garden bench.
Our new teak garden bench arrived within 24hours of ordering as promised. It was very easy to assemble, just tapping in dowels as indicated by the assembly plan and stickers on the arms, seat etc. Now that it has been sited in the garden, my wife and I can honestly say that it is a much needed and very attractive addition. The bench has exceeded our expectations, well done GardenBenches.com.
Brian and Cathy Edwards.

Thank you for your order and business Keith.
Stated Preassembled (not) and late
The whole point to buying this garden bench is that I stipulated pre-assembled.
Left in the cardboard wrapper not assembled
Late service,pathetic excuse blaming the Suez Canal.
You can buy cheaper elsewhere so go elsewhere

Hello Mr Ralph, We do make it clear on the product page and on the website which of our benches arrive fully built and ones that arrive in 4 parts and slot together with traditional mortise and tenon joints with dowels. Sorry you missed this on this occasion.
Please also search for the article relating to the Suez Canal being blocked as this was an international incident that effected businesses all over the World.
Fantastic Bench, Great Service
The quality of our purchased bench is fantastic, it was delivered within a couple of days. The friendly staff answered all of our questions and I can highly recommend gardenbenches.com
