Every rattan patio chair set in this range sits on an aluminium frame that cannot rust, so you can leave it outside all year round without covering the frame or the rattan. Comfort is designed in too, with UV-stabilised HDPE rattan (high-density polyethylene) that won’t go brittle like cheaper PVC rattan can after a couple of summers. Unlike steel-frame seating, aluminium is not prone to internal corrosion from joints and bolt holes, so sets are typically built for well over 10 years with proper cushion care. Cushions are included (they’re not waterproof), so store them when not in use to keep them looking and feeling great. Simple assembly is included and should take around a minute.
