We've had it out in the rain for two months straight and the teak is already starting to soften into that silvery grey, looks even better than when it arrived. The three-seater size is perfect for our porch, and it feels solid enough to last decades.

The grain on this teak is gorgeous, and the bench feels incredibly sturdy—we've already left it out in two rainstorms and it looks untouched. Sitting three across is genuinely comfortable, and I love that it'll eventually age into that silvery grey.

The FSC-certified teak feels heavy and solid, exactly what you want for a bench that will stay outside year-round. I love that it's already starting to show that soft silvery grey after just a few weeks of rain and sun.
