Turn your patio into a living room

Questions and answers

Is eucalyptus good for outdoor furniture?

Yes. Eucalyptus is a dense hardwood that resists rot and insects better than pine or acacia, and it is a common choice for mid-range patio sets. It still benefits from annual oiling and covering in harsh winters.

How hard is assembly?

It ships flat-packed and requires assembly. Expect to set aside a couple of hours and to need a second person to hold frames while bolts go in.

Can the cushions stay outside in the rain?

The foam fill will soak up water if the set is left uncovered in steady rain. Bring cushions in or use a cover when the weather turns.

How many people does the set seat?

Four. The sofa seats two and the two chairs seat one each, with the coffee table in the middle.

Does it need maintenance?

The wood should be oiled once or twice a year to keep its color and prevent drying and cracking. Tighten the bolts after the first few weeks of use.
