White Benches

White storage bench and shoe storage

A white storage bench earns its spot in an entryway by holding the shoes that would otherwise pile up by the door. The shoe benches here hide pairs behind doors or on open shelves, and the 77.5 inch entryway bench adds drawers and shelves under a long seat rated to 300 pounds. A white finish keeps a narrow hall bright, and it pairs with brass hooks, a woven runner or a round mirror above.

White boucle bench for the bedroom

A white boucle bench softens the end of a bed or a dressing area. One has a curved, armless base and holds up to 300 pounds. The 54 inch ivory bench adds arms and two bolster pillows and is rated to 450 pounds. Both sit on wood frames with solid hardwood in the build, and the nubby boucle texture hides small creases. Vacuum boucle with a brush head and blot spills quickly with a damp cloth.

White outdoor bench in wood, metal and HDPE

A white outdoor bench brightens a porch, a garden path or a deck. Choose solid eucalyptus, solid fir or solid poplar for a painted wood look, white metal for a scrolled or slatted classic, HDPE for an Adirondack bench that never needs paint, or resin wicker on an aluminum frame with storage under the seat. Widths run from 38.5 to 50.5 inches, enough for two people side by side. Painted wood needs a fresh coat every few seasons, while metal, HDPE and wicker only need a rinse.

White entryway bench height and fit

A white entryway bench should sit about 17 to 20 inches high, the height of a dining chair, so you can sit and pull on shoes. Backless benches here sit about 15.5 to 20.5 inches high, and benches with backs stand 30 to 38.6 inches tall overall. Leave at least 36 inches of walkway in front, and wipe painted finishes with a damp cloth.
