2 in 1 Transforming Picnic Set, Acacia Loveseat That Opens Into a Table and Two Storage Stools

Small outdoor spaces force a choice. A bench against the railing means no table. A bistro table means nowhere comfortable to sit for an hour with a book. Most people buy one and regret it by July.

Folded it is a 33 in bench with a slatted acacia back. Opened out, the back becomes a table and the seat splits into two stools either side of it. Storage lives inside both seat sections either way.

The same furniture, twice

Two studio shots of one product. Above, the bench with its slatted acacia back and storage under the seat. Below, the same piece opened into a table with a stool either side of it. Nothing is added or taken away between the two.

How it changes

The manufacturer's own panel on the mechanism. The backrest hinges down to become the tabletop and the two seat sections separate into stools. It goes back the other way just as easily, which is the whole point.

The measurements both ways

As a bench it is 33 in wide, 18 in deep and 33 in high with a 13 in seat depth. Opened out, the table is 31 in by 15 in and 32 in tall with 16.5 in stools either side, spreading to 66 in overall. Capacities are 800 lb, 400 lb and 100 lb.

A 33 in bench folds out into a 31 in table with two stools. Nothing is bought twice and nothing is left in the shed.

Both seat sections open. Cushions, tools or a throw live inside the furniture instead of taking up floor space beside it.

Real acacia slats where you sit and eat, rather than printed board. The maker asks you to oil it now and then.

Printed ratings of 800 lb as a loveseat, 400 lb per stool and 100 lb on the table, carried by a metal frame.

Each foot adjusts, which matters on a converting piece that has to sit level in two different configurations.

Spread out as table and stools it runs 66 in by 18 in, and folds back to 33 in by 18 in when you want the floor back.

A bench when you want to sit against the railing, a table with two seats when you want to eat. It never has to be both at once.

Both seat sections open, so cushions, tools or a folded throw live inside the furniture rather than in the house.

What we stand behind

• Every dimension and all three weight capacities come from the manufacturer's own Product Dimensions image.
• The maker's own two notes are printed here rather than buried: oil the wood regularly, and avoid prolonged rain exposure.
• Storage is built into both seat sections. No volume is published for it, so none is claimed.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150.
• 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

How does it change shape?

The slatted back folds down to become the tabletop and the seat splits into two stools that stand either side of it. The manufacturer shows the whole sequence in their own panel. No tools are involved once it is assembled.

What will it hold?

Eight hundred pounds as a loveseat, 400 lb for each chair section and 100 lb on the table, all printed on the manufacturer's dimension image. A metal frame under the rattan carries those loads.

Does the wood need oiling?

The manufacturer's own note asks you to apply oil to the wood regularly for maintenance. Acacia left untreated weathers to a silver grey without losing strength, so oiling is about keeping the colour rather than keeping it safe.

Can it live outside all season?

The maker's own note is to avoid prolonged rain exposure for a longer service life. A shower is one thing, a wet week is another. A cover, or a spot under an eave, is the sensible arrangement.
