does the bench completely fit under the butcher block table?

It doesn't - the bench is a about an inch beyond the table legs on each side.

I don't know, but we live in a dry climate and a couple of parts of the butcher block are separating. You will definitely need a true cutting board on top. I love wouldn't cut directly on the attached block.

Yes. You have to attach the sides. It should take 20 mins. tops to put together, but I'm very happy with the bench. Worth it.

It has been a long time since I put my table together, but the wooden pieces and the screws come with it. You have to provide a screw driver. Also, in an earlier response, I noted that two pieces were too short. What happened I don't know, but it has not affected the functionality of the bench/table as they were two supporting pieces for one of the seats. It has served me well. I did a good job of protecting the wood, because mine sits in the sun and rain all of the time.

Yes. The bench is very heavy and well built. Has to be flipped to lower or raise legs.

hi and yes. the back of the bench drops down flush against the back leg (where the hooks are) and the front legs holds under and along the seat. It doesnt fold flat, but enough to make storage easy.

I don't think so. The legs seem pretty stable. This bench is a great buy! I'm very satisfied!

I returned the bench b/c it arrived damaged from internal shifting. From what I saw the fastenings are undersized and the glue didn't compensate enough to keep the rib in place.

I have not yet assembled, because when I purchased this table set I thought that it included the wood. I was very surprised when I found out it was just the legs of the table and bench!

I've just been out into the yard to measure ours, I'm feeling generous today. The benches are 17 inches tall and 14 1/2 inches deep. The table is 28 3/4 inches tall and 29 3/4 inches across. This is measuring including the wood which we put on and may vary from what you will put on, also measuring while on grass so may not be accurate to more than 1/4 inch. The length depends entirely on the length of timber you use. If you go too long it will affect how 'springy' the bench is when someone sits in the middle.

Yes. I used a 24" square sheet of 1/2" plywood for the table. Cranked it tight with the jawhorse and it ked great!

No, you cannot. It's decorative only, not a real butcher block. I had a piece of glass made to cover the 'wood' top. It's a very nice piece!

No the back is made to be part of the bench. You would have peg like stubs sticking up if you did not put the back on and that would defeat the purpose of buying the bench.

Yes, Just know the bench is a little wobbly. You'll need to buy new screws at Home Depot or Lowe's.

I have to say it has been a while since I put my bench together so I am not really sure. However I do recall having a challenging time getting it together. I think I had to drill a small hole in it to make the screws fit. Also the fact that there were no words just pictures with the instructions didn't help.

I haven't found one, but I am in the process of making one. Easy and cheap to do. LOVE the bench, comfortable enough without cushion and looks fantastic.
