How easy is it to take care and maintain my rattan furniture?

What about looking after your furniture set, is rattan really any good or are you going to end up with a ragged off colour furniture set after a year? Well the best news is that rattan is not the same as most resin furniture.


Its easy top clean and can take a beating with a hose and brush without being damaged. The man made wicker weave is extremely robust and is usually UV proof but to be sure you get a set that lasts a life time you could make a small investment in rattan patio furniture covers when you buy your set. These are relatively inexpensive but will keep the dirt and dust away from the weave over the winter months leaving you with no cleaning come the summer.


Cushions and covers are usually detachable and washable so you need not worry about these getting into poor condition. With a synthetic rattan patio furniture set you really do get the best of both worlds with a set that's easy to maintain and looks stylish.
