Bench for the kitchen is an element of kitchen furniture, the design of which varies depending on the style of the kitchen. This is not a sofa, not a sofa and not part of the kitchen corner, but a separate type of furniture. In the classical sense, a bench is nothing more than an elegant bench with a soft base.

• Canapes differ from ordinary banquets in size. They are tiny, have small legs and are not designed for long sitting.
• Banquet chairs differ in the presence of backs, and often armrests. These models are more aesthetically pleasing, they can accommodate no more than one user.
• Bench Benches can also have armrests and backs, but their length is longer, so up to three users can sit on them.

• Models with tables capable of decorating the guest space of the kitchen, they are used as tea tables.
• Analog sofas do not provide for sleeping places, but may be the same alternative to soft chairs.

Depending on the design idea, models may have shelves and internal drawers, which makes them more convenient for kitchens. The fewer things in the kitchens are in sight, the more spacious and cleaner they seem. Moreover, the lifting mechanisms of the models are different. For example, the most advanced options have an option to adjust the backrest.

Upholstery of banquets is different, it can be textiles, eco-leather or leather, which is considered the most practical material. Models can be equipped with additional accessories. Let's say some of them can be supplemented with mattresses, others with sofa cushions. Some provide for the use of textile covers, which helps to protect the upholstery from premature abrasion and dirt. At the same time, the type of covers can be very different: for banquets, you can choose options that cover only the seat or also the back.

The shape of the models is also different. Models for one user are usually square, for two and three - rectangular. Sometimes on sale you can find products of a rounded type, which put the straight side close to the wall. It is convenient and saves the useful area of ​​the kitchen. Also among a wide range there are products of the angular type with curved shapes.

This may be the related color of the furniture of the guest area, the dining group or even the working corner (in particular, the facades of the hanging or floor cabinets).

As with the purchase of any other furniture, going for a banquet for the kitchen, you will have to take into account a number of factors. This will allow you to successfully fit the product into an existing interior composition and make the kitchen accent. First you need to determine the location and measure the approximate distance that you can take under the banquet. For example, it can be placed at the window, table, in the guest area. If the room has a bay window, you can put there.

Further defined with color and shape.In this case, it is necessary to focus on the style of a particular room. This is explained by the fact that each interior style has its own priorities in choosing colors and shapes. For example, for a classic kitchen, you should choose a model with carved curved legs, a decor in the form of gilding or stucco molding. In this case, the color can be light, and the furniture should be made exclusively of wood.

If you need a model in the room of modern style, preference should be given to ergonomic-type products with metal legs and a creative shape. In this case, the model should be as functional as possible, and therefore folding.

The color is matched to the tone of the existing furniture, but the print on the upholstery is undesirable. Country trends and Provence is extremely important to show belonging to your style through prints. Shades should be light, the priority is white and its combination with the tones of the pastel group. The shape of the furniture for these styles should be elegant. Prints of this style: light cage, strip, meadow flowers.

Pay attention to the height of the legs. If you need to take the product to the kitchen with a bar, you need to choose an option of a similar height. They are on sale, but if the store models are not like, you can order them individually for a specific interior. Along with the height of the supports, you need to pay attention to the depth of the seat, which will help the so-called fitting.

When choosing a size, you must rely on furniture that is already in the kitchen. In addition, it is important to consider the footage of your kitchen. If the room is spacious, you can afford to purchase a more comfortable option. However, if there is hardly enough space in the kitchen, you should limit yourself to a small model, moreover, of a laconic form.

Do not forget to pay attention to build quality when buying. Nothing should stagger, hang out. These are obvious signs of marriage, which with all desire cannot be eliminated, because this is a torn thread of compounds. See that the upholstery is intact, dense, quality made and clean. Dirty material may indicate that the product has already been used, but returned to the store (which means there is definitely a marriage there).

For a kitchen interior to be status, take stylish products. Do not pick them on the basis of "and so it goes." If the furniture does not fit the style of your room, it will not look beautiful in it. If possible, choose options with a back and a drawer. Look at the type of seat: it should be soft, but elastic.
