Dear AT,
I'm looking for two outdoor benches for my outdoor space, and really love this simple Montego bench from Room and Board...but I''m not really liking the price!
I've scoured the city and searched online.
I'm also open to other materials such as wood-styled resin and metal (CB2 has this combination, but as a dining TABLE only!)...










How about the Molger bathroom bench from Ikea? http://www.flickr.com/photos/art_chel/533259790/in/set-72157600319268858/
I'm using mine as an outdoor seating/plant bench. It's nice because it has two levels.
I believe that was under 40 bucks. Depending on your budget you have many choices.

I like the style of that bench a lot too.
Last year I was looking for some benches like that, and I couldn't find anything I liked that was affordable... so... I just ended up building my own!
Don't get me wrong, they're not Room & Board, but they look cool and they're sturdy. I basically used four 4x4s for the legs, and used 2x4s for all of the in-between pieces.
Now, I built 5 of these things for just under $200. Good deal :)

I have actually been looking for something similar to this for my balcony since last summer...and unfortunately, I have not been able to find a decent substitute for less money. Please, someone prove me wrong!

Thanks for the suggestions! Believe it or not, Target is carrying a similar bench online. Looks as if that's where im going.
