Why Bench Seat Cabinets Are The Trendiest Home Addition

If you’re reading this right now, you’ve likely been scrolling through home design inspiration lately. Whether it’s Pinterest, TikTok, or your favorite HGTV show, you’ve probably noticed one stylish staple popping up again and again: cabinet bench seats. These cozy, multifunctional nooks are taking over kitchens, mudrooms, and dining areas, and for good reason. They blend charm and practicality in a way that makes small spaces feel bigger, adds a custom-built touch, and sneaks in that oh-so-needed extra storage. In today’s post, we’re diving into why cabinet bench seats are having a serious moment and how they might just be the upgrade your space has been waiting for.

The Always Needed Added Storage

Looking for a place to store extra shoes, rain gear, and more? Look no further than bench seating with pull-out cabinets. Beyond its practical extra seating, bench seats with pull-out cabinets provide much-needed storage. In New England, home of 802 Cabinetry, we’re always looking for a place to stow winter gear, and bench storage provides the perfect space to store it for the offseason! Bench seats with pull-out cabinets are always a favorite choice. After all, no one has ever complained about having too much storage!

Blends Seamlessly With Home Design

One of the top reasons people choose bench seat cabinets (beyond the added storage) is how seamlessly they blend with existing home design.
