Product Information

A big bonus of investing in an outdoor furniture cover is that it will make maintenance and cleaning a lot easier. As the cover acts as a barrier between your furniture and the elements, it is less likely to be affected by mould, mildew, or rusting, so the time spent learning how to clean garden furniture is cut in half. Whilst covering your garden table and chairs makes cleaning them a lot easier, the caveat to this is that the cover itself needs to be cleaned. The furniture may be free from mould and mildew, but the cover won't be unless it's washed regularly - remember, it's taking all the rain, snow and creepy crawlies your furniture would otherwise be getting. Measure accurately: For the perfect fit, make sure you measure your outdoor furniture before choosing your cover. You want it to be a snug fit to ensure maximum protection.

If you treat the wood every year, your furniture should be resistant to water and won't need covering between uses during summer.
