Exterior furnishing is not an easy task, espcially when it comes to materials. We might all want a kind of Outdoor Rattan Set that is easy to maintain or rearrange, lasts for years and, of course, with the most reasonable cost possible. Among various types of materials available, wood and synthetic rattan appear to be the two most popular. But “Which suits my exterior space best?”, you might be wondering. Don’t worry, Let’s find out with Outdoor Synthetic Rattan Furniture Supplier: We are going to do some comparisions between wood and synthetic rattan outdoor furniture based on several factors so that you can make a wise choice.

Wood

Not all woods are created equal, but if there’s one common benefit to all wood patio furniture, it’s the ageless appeal of its natural beauty. Pine, cedar, or fir are softer woods with some degree of natural weather resistance; hardwoods such as shorea and teak boast exceptional durability and performance.

Benefits:

Lends a warm, casual feel to any outdoor space

Acacia and cedar offer some natural weather resistance at a great value

Teak provides incomparable durability that will last a lifetime if cared for properly

Withstands: Rain (if sealed properly), sunlight, humidity, wind, and extreme temperatures

Care Tips:

Always use coasters, pads or felt to avoid the appearance of moisture rings and heat marks

Sealing with varnishes or stains can help prevent warping in humid climates

If sealed wood, clean with a mild soapy water mixture to remove dirt, dust and pollen

If painted wood, avoid exposure to moisture, clean with a damp cloth

For untreated wood, keep out of rain and direct sunlight to preserve quality – clean with lightly damp cloth

In conclusion, while wood is stronger, outdoor Plastic Rattan Set performs better in terms of weather resistance. Cost differences are variable and usually, wicker is cheapler than wood. Each type of material has different styles to go for and the choice is up to you!

Luckily, our Plastic Rattan Set are designed to require little to no maintenance and are incredibly quick and easy to wash. The materials we use on our rattan garden furniture sets are especially developed and chosen to ensure easy care and maintenance. PE rattan is a synthetic type of rattan which means that you don’t need to worry about it fading away or cracking when you wash it and the aluminium frame is also rust free.

Remove Dust

Use a microfiber or disposable duster or a vacuum cleaner with an upholstery brush to dust the entire surface of rattan furniture. This will prevent excessive soil build-up in the weaving.

Mix dishwashing liquid with a gallon of warm water

The amount I go with usually is ¼ cup of dishwashing liquid and a gallon of warm water. When water is warm, it is much more effective at cleaning than cold water. Make sure that you mix those two up by stirring them. It is best to use a bucket because you are probably going to move it around. One bucket should be more than enough to clean your entire bistro set or furniture set.

Dip your soft brush into the bucket and start cleaning

I have found some articles online that are suggesting that you use a toothbrush for this. Well, I have tried cleaning one chair with a toothbrush and the other with a much larger soft brush. Guess what? There was a big difference in the time that it took me to clean one single chair. But speaking of cleaning them, there was not so much difference. In fact, when I tried to do the process with a toothbrush the chair got dry before I could finish so it was left with spots on it.

My conclusion? Don’t be stupid enough to use a toothbrush. Having a much larger soft brush will make your process much shorter and your furniture a bit cleaner.

Rinse your rattan furniture again

There is nothing much to say here. Use your water hose and set it on spraying just like at the first step. Make sure that your table, chairs, etc. don’t get dry before you are finished with this step. If they get dry while there is still soap on them then you will end up with spots on your furniture. Again it is best to clean your rattan in the shades if it is sunny outside.

Leave to dry

Now it is time to let your furniture dry out in the sun. Some people use cloths to wipe it and make the process faster but I think that it is perfectly fine to just leave it out in the sun. While you are waiting for your rattan furniture to dry you can clean your cushions if you have any.

Keeping your outdoor rattan furniture clean, covering it in wet or windy weather, providing a surface protectant, and storing it indoors in winter are the best ways to weatherproof your furniture and extend its life in your outdoor landscape.
