Why Buy a Teak Banana Bench?

Here at Mr Teak we design and supply a range of premium garden benches in both traditional, timeless styles and chic, modern silhouettes.

In this blog we’re going to be exploring one of our most contemporary products, a banana bench.

What is a banana bench?

A banana bench, sometimes referred to as a half moon or crescent bench due to its curved, wave-like back support section, is one of the most popular types of garden space installations due to its versatile and unique appeal.

Our Longleat Banana benches are available with a vertical slatting or a double wave aesthetic, meaning you never have to compromise on your garden’s style or features.

Banana benches are mid-sized, usually three seaters, just right to accent your garden

You can also combine your new banana bench with the matching wave coffee table as part of an eye-catching centrepiece set.

All of our furniture is sustainable, premium grade A teak, and featuring mortise and tenon cjoints.

Are teak banana benches comfortable?

Due to the curved top rail of this style of bench combined with the fact you sit ‘in’ rather than ‘on’ them, yes, banana benches are regarded as comfortable and provide sturdy support.

All of our expertly crafted teak furniture can be further enhanced in terms of relaxation and comfort with one of our perfectly fitting, luxury cushions.

Is teak furniture robust?

It certainly is! 

Teak is one of the toughest types of wood; derived from timber, teak has a natural resistance to water, meaning our robustly constructed benches can be left outdoors year round regardless of the weather.

You can purchase with confidence knowing that our smooth finish plantation teak packs a punch!

If you would like to bolster the already impressive durability of your banana bench, one of our premium ‘Weatherguard’ covers would do the trick. Available in green or black and made from long lasting PVC back woven polyester, the specifically silhouetted banana bench cover is the perfect proactive care for your new addition. 

Why choose Mr Teak?

Our products are sourced from legal and sustainable projects as we believe the knowledge of giving back to the environment only enhances the experience of utilising one of our benches.

Via our ethos of using the highest quality sustainable wood without having a negative impact on the environment you are helping towards the fight against deforestation, as well as making sure more trees are planted to replace those that were used to make your furniture. 

Not only does this reduce your carbon footprint, but also guarantees the longevity of your products due to the quality of the Indonesian legal wood and the high standard of joinery we have upheld for 20 years.
