Western Red Cedar Traditional Picnic Table with 2 Benches

I couldn't be happier with this purchase. The table and benches are sturdy, and the unfinished version that I bought didn't need any touch-up sanding prior to our finishing it. The wood is gorgeous. I will look forward to the next time I purchase from this vendor.

Bought tables for our church outside. A little expensive I thought but there was not much else out there. That had separate benches from the tables. I thought the website was very good and the selection of colors varied widely and the customer service was great. The shipment arrive timely and in manageable boxes. We have some of them without much difficulty although it would’ve been nice to have more Allen key wrenches in the bags rather than just one per table.
Staying on the tables is a transparent’s game and I thought it was a little light since it is gray maybe that’s just what it is. The problem we noticed after a couple weeks being outside is that one of the tables Woodboards for splitting a crack little concerned that used plan to send some pictures in to see what can be done. Maybe some bad wood?

All parts arrived in great condition. I ordered a 5’ Cedar picnic table with 2 separate benches, unfinished. I stained all parts before assembling, using a semi-transparent waterproofing stain, cedar tone color. The only (small) problem encountered during assembly was getting a couple of the bolts for the table legs to turn into the preinstalled threaded devices on the underside of the table top. Apparently, the female threaded devices were installed a “silly millimeter” off angle and did not match up with the bolt threads. To correct this, I used a slightly larger hex key to back out (loosen) the female threaded device; then inserted the bolt through and started screwing the bolt straight. After the threading started, I then tightened the female threaded device all the way in. With the bolt now straight and slightly threaded in, it easily screwed in all the way. I was very impressed with the quality and sturdiness of the cedar table and benches. I bought it for my son’s birthday for his apartment patio. He is thrilled with it and says it still smells nice, like a cedar chest, even with 2 coats of stain/waterproofer applied. Very happy with this purchase and highly recommend the Charming Bench Company. They beat the price of everyone on line by $50-$150.

I just received my table and benches last week and am so happy with my purchase. The quality of the product and finish is really impressive. I was a little concerned about the assembly process when it was delivered, but once I opened the box it was really easy! Would order again!
