Lidded Storage Bench
Full dimensions are listed at the end of the Overview on every product page, taken from the finished piece rather than from a drawing. If a measurement matters for your space, write to us and we will check the actual item before it ships.
Care instructions ship with the product and are printed on the care label where there is one. Solid wood wants a damp cloth and an occasional oil; stone should be sealed once a year; wool and linen prefer a cold wash and drying flat.
Shipping is free on every order, with tracking, anywhere in the United States. We do not ship outside the US, so there are no customs charges or import duties on anything you order.
Orders are processed in 1 to 2 business days and most orders placed before 2pm ET leave the same day. Typical delivery is 7 to 15 days from dispatch. Tracking arrives by email as soon as the carrier scans the parcel.
Thirty days to return anything unused and in its original packaging, with all fixings included. We cover the return shipping when an item is faulty, damaged or not what you ordered. If a piece arrives damaged, send a photo of the item and the outer box within 7 days and we ship a replacement without asking for the broken one back.
Furniture
Oatmeal linen over a hardwood frame, with a soft-close hinge and fifteen inches of interior depth.
HINGE
A lidded box on a free hinge is a trapped finger waiting to happen, particularly with children in the house. This one lowers under control every time, which is the difference between a chest you use and one you stop opening.
CAPACITY
That takes two folded duvets or a full season of spare bedding without forcing the lid down. The interior is a clean box, with no frame rails eating into the usable space.
DOUBLE DUTY
The linen is stretched over a hardwood frame rather than a foam lid, so 300 lb of person tying a shoelace does not deform the top or stress the hinge.

This is finished stock from the same production runs that supply larger homeware retailers — bought as a lot, priced without the showroom margin. Same piece, same materials. When the lot is gone we cannot always reorder.

With a six year old who lifts the lid daily this was the feature I actually cared about, and it lowers slowly every time. The 15 inch interior swallowed two duvets and a stack of spare pillows. The oatmeal linen has stayed clean at the front edge where feet hit it.
It lives at the end of the bed doing both jobs and the hardwood frame under the linen takes my weight without a sound. Forty inches wide fits the foot of a queen almost exactly. Everything that used to pile on the chair is now inside it.
Part-assembled. The hardware and an Allen key are in the box and most pieces are four to eight bolts. The number of steps and the rough assembly time are on each product page.
Check the boxed dimensions in The details before you order, not just the assembled ones — a doorway or a stair turn is what usually catches people out, and larger tops ship as a single slab. If a measurement is borderline, write to us and we will measure the actual item before it leaves.
Larger pieces are delivered to your door. Carriers do not carry items upstairs, into a particular room, unpack them or take the packaging away, so line up a second pair of hands for anything heavy.
Where a page says solid oak or solid acacia, it is solid through the whole thickness, not veneer over board. Grain and tone vary from piece to piece because the wood does; we do not photograph a stained sample and ship something else.
