Polyrattan and powder-coated steel provide weather resistance, suitable for year-round use; however, cushions should be stored or covered in persistent wet or freezing weather for best longevity. What are the advantages of polyrattan over traditional wicker? Polyrattan is highly UV and water resistant, easy to clean with mild detergent, and does not crack or fade as quickly as natural wicker. How should I clean and maintain the set? Cushion covers are machine washable. Wipe frames and glass with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Is this good value for a family of five? Designed for five adults, offering a balance of comfort, durability, exclusive UK design, a 3-year guarantee, and free delivery. How does it compare for small patios? Corner configuration maximises space. Footprint dimensions available in the size guide. Not modular, but compact for most UK patios.
