"...and Ron sank so low in his chair that only his crimson forehead
could be seen." (COS 88)
"Ginny jumped as though her chair had been electrified." (286 COS)
"'Certainly, certainly,' said Dumbledore, his eyes twinkling. 'Let me
draw you up a chair--'
And he did indeed draw a chair in midair with his wand..." (POA 228)

Plus there are several mentions of "seat" that just don't sound like
how people describe benches.  "He [Harry] slipped into a seat between
Ron and Hermione at the the Gryffindor table..." (PS 220)
"He [Harry] and Hermione sat down on either side of Ron, who had saved
them seats." (POA 91)
"Percy, who was sitting a few seats down..." (POA 92)
"Harry dropped into a seat at the Gryffindor table..." (POA 96)

Haven't had a chance to leaf through GOF for chair references, but
these are what I have found in the first three.
