The weight capacity of a wooden bench depends on factors like the type of wood, the thickness of the wood used, and the construction quality. A well-built wooden bench made from hardwood can typically support 400 to 600 pounds. Adding cross-supports or using thicker wood can increase the weight capacity. Benches made from softwoods or those with weaker joints may have a lower capacity, typically around 200 to 300 pounds. To ensure safety, reinforce the bench with metal brackets or additional supports.
