This is one of the original designs from when the company was first founded and to date is one of our most celebrated   Although four legged benches are common we wanted our version to take into consideration some of the feedback related to this style.  The goal was to get the most optimal comfort for a specific demographic: senior citizens. In fact many of the modifications were driven by this group’s needs and comments. The seat height was raised, the angle of the backrest adjusted, and the height of the armrest tweaked to make this bench extremely comfortable and user friendly.  This was also the first bench that employed an all-aluminum frame as opposed to steel.  As well, the armrest and seatback have been designed to discourage our skateboarding friends from using them as a rail to grind. Ideally suited for many scenarios ranging from to parks to playgrounds the Rutherford truly shines as a dedication or memorial bench.  The Rutherford name comes from the last name of a good friend of the designer.
