The furniture looked wonderful and it is made all the more enjoyable because of the experience of buying it from you.

Testimonial Poppy bench

"THREE WORDS IN PRAISE OF BENNINGTONS - SIMPLY THE BEST!"

"I have raised much wampum over the years for charity with my wingman David Ash. Unfortunately David passed away in 2020 so we decided to get a memorial bench manufactured in his memory. The process was quite daunting until I came across Wendy at Benningtons.

We contacted eight companies and five got back to me via email, but it was only Wendy who followed it up with a phone call to explain the process - now that's what I call service, you know like we used to get in the old days when people actually talked to each other! Their quote was highly competitive but what impressed me most was their ability to talk me though it and "hold my hand" so to speak during the manufacture.

Having visited their showroom my mind was made up, they kept in constant contact during the fabrication and most importantly my mind was put at rest that we'd chosen the right company and indeed the result was stunning"

Testimonial - Chatsworth Bench

 

Chatsworth Bench

"I purchased the elegant Chatsworth Metal Bench from Bennington Metal Furniture after lots of looking around at alternatives that I felt were either too chunky or too ornate. This design struck a lovely balance for my garden. Bennington were so attentive in helping me source a colour too, that was outside of their usual range (a Cotswold green) and keeping me regularly updated as the bench went into production, then painted and finally delivered.

I was away from home for delivery and they kindly unpacked the bench, placed it where I wanted it and provided some photographs of it in situ. Such good customer service all round that I am really grateful for"

The quality, attention to detail and your patience have made this purchase a quite exceptional journey!

Bespoke remembrance bench

"Bennington recently made a bespoke memorial metal bench for our Founder. I found the company to be very helpful and understanding to our specific need. As we were designing the bench ourselves I found their staff very patience and extremely helpful with the design. They consulted me during the construction at every twist and turn to ensure that I was happy with progress. Our Bench arrived on time, in fact a day early, and at the price we had agreed. The quality of their work was outstanding and the attention to detail exceptional and they were a delight to do business with and provided a personal service that inspired confidence. I would certainly recommend them and use them again myself"

Cavaletti Table Base & Tuscany Chairs

"We needed table legs to support our granite table top and travelled over 2 hours to see what Bennington Furniture could do for us. On arrival we were greeted with a cup of tea and nothing was too much trouble for Wendy and her team. They altered the design of the legs they had on display to meet our very specific requirements and their "can do" attitude was very refreshing. We were kept constantly informed of progress and they kept to their word. The legs and frame are of exceptional quality. It has truly been a pleasure to do business with such an efficient and friendly company. We would have no hesitation in recommending them. They were quite a find."

Mr & Mrs P - Warwickshire

Inserted Granite Coffee Table & Shelf

"Bennington recently made a metal coffee table for me with an inset flagstone top. I found the company on line and used them because I liked the look of their designs and their sensible, clear website. As I was providing the stone top myself, it was necessary to modify their design slightly. They were flexible and businesslike, and subsequently consulted me during the construction to ensure that I was happy with progress. They are a very professional company that produced exactly what I had asked for, on time and at the price we had agreed. I have been most impressed with them, not only for the quality of their work but also because they were a delight to do business with and provided a personal service that inspired confidence. I would certainly recommend them and use them again myself"

We were booked an individual appointment where we were able to choose our tables. The advice given and attention to detail was first class and in addition we were given a tour of the workshop, which was really interesting.

We were kept informed of the progress via e-mail which included photographs at individual stages. This was to ensure we were happy with everything.

When we collected the finished tables we were delighted with the quality and they have complemented our furniture perfectly. Wendy and the team were a pleasure to deal with throughout"
