We don’t use the dining table much and have taken the chairs out, looking at a bench or hutch with some storage for one side of the table. Anyone have any ideas or mods that you have done?

While I'm not a furniture maker and it's not as nicely upholstered as the store bought benches, I was able to put this together in about a day (staining and varnish took longer). Things tend to collect on flat surfaces including seats so we wanted something with a draw instead of a lift top. The high back protects the window trim.
When we travel we remove the pad and strap our remaining chairs to the top of the bench (we have a recliner that gets moved into the space occupied by the two chairs).

I made the mistake of opening your post while my wife was sitting next to me. She leaned over and said "ooooo..." when she saw the picture. Thanks. Thanks a lot. Another project added to my list.

Our bench base is 34 1/2"L x 21 1/2"D x 17"H. The back extends 19" above the seat. All dimensions were based on the available clear floor space, the height of the existing chairs, and the desire to have a 3" foam pad to sit on. If your going with a store bought bench you'll want to determine your maximum allowable dimensions and then find something that fits.
I see that GD offers a storage option for the 315RLTS that looks like a bench with a lift top and a wall mounted padded back. It might be worth while to see if this is available as an after market purchase.John
