Quality resin wicker patio furniture is both tough and beautiful – ideal for complementing multiple outdoor decor styles.
For a modern and contemporary feel, consider sleek woven sets featuring geometric shapes; for something a bit more traditional try natural-colored wicker furniture instead.
It’s Durable
When it comes to outdoor furniture purchases, durability should always be at the top of your priority list. Quality wicker patio furniture stands up well against rain, snow and humidity without degrading over time; plus it’s easy to keep clean with just a quick hose down! For optimal results pair wicker with cushions made of waterproof and sun-resistant materials to prevent fabric degradation caused by prolonged sunlight exposure.
Look for wicker pieces with sturdy frames made of wood or cast aluminum. Bending or warping frames under heavy load could indicate poor craftsmanship and lead to early breakdown. If purchasing an assembled set, check that its frames were welded together in the factory for maximum durability and longevity. Finally, choose synthetic resin (not PVC) wicker that resists cracking and peeling for longevity and crack-resistance.
One way to extend the durability of wicker furniture is purchasing all-weather cushions and pillows. These durable fabrics can withstand sunlight, moisture and extreme temperatures while still remaining soft and comfortable even during a heatwave. Furthermore, some of these cushions may even feature ergonomic designs for optimal comfort.
Both natural and synthetic wicker materials are durable, with resin fibers lasting longer than traditional rattan wicker materials. Resin fibers are more resilient to the effects of sun rays and moisture exposure and don’t degrade quickly with exposure compared to its counterpart rattan. Furthermore, its availability in more colors makes matching your new furniture with your green space or home decor easy! Although initial investments for higher-quality wicker may be higher, but its long-term value makes for a chic, long-term addition to your outdoor living space!
It’s Lightweight
Wicker patio furniture can provide the ideal light and airy atmosphere, no matter your climate conditions or personal taste. As it’s lightweight compared to other materials, you can move it easily between spaces on your patio. Use a wicker table as the focal point in an outdoor living space before layering modern fabrics on top for an inviting lounge space perfect for relaxation and entertaining guests.
Wicker patio furniture’s light structure makes it easy to move around and keep clean, and does not rely on heavy cushions like other forms of furniture do. Furthermore, its material does not rust or oxidize like metal furniture does. Salt can damage wicker over time in areas with extreme hot weather; for this reason you should invest in high quality synthetic wicker that uses HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) rather than cheap PVC that may break down over time.
Tortuga Outdoor’s Sea Pines resin wicker patio set provides the ultimate combination of style, comfort, and quality. Available with Mojave or Java flat weave wicker flat weave fabrics – as well as 6″ thick outdoor cushions in various fabrics for each weave style – the frames are constructed of powder-coated aluminum which won’t rust in any climate while the UV resistant wicker material itself stands up well to mildew, fade, and UV rays.
All-weather wicker furniture is an extremely flexible, stylish, and long-term piece of patio furniture that works in most decor styles – from traditional to casual or modern. If you want something heavier but less lightweight than wicker, consider teak or wrought iron; cast aluminum would also work. Alternatively, look at plastic/molded resin pieces which mimic wood grain for a lighter option while still fitting into any design aesthetic aesthetically.
It’s Easy to Maintain
Wicker patio furniture makes an excellent addition to any outdoor living space, as its resilient material stands up well to weather elements without warping or cracking. Furthermore, its easy care requires only occasional cares to keep it looking its best and look brand new for longer than some other materials like metal and wood. However, that does not mean it won’t bring years of pleasure!
There are various ways you can extend the lifespan of wicker furniture. One important way is by regularly vacuuming with a brush attachment to remove dirt and dust from crevices. Furthermore, at least once every month use water mixed with mild soap to wash your piece with soft cloth or brush; harsher treatments could damage its fibers.
After every cleaning session, it’s crucial that your wicker furniture dries completely to prevent mold and mildew growth caused by moisture accumulation. To speed this process up, set up fans or use towels to dry the surface after it has been scrubbed clean.
Natural and synthetic wicker furniture are both easy to maintain in terms of cleaning methods, yet there may be differences that you’ll need to keep in mind. Resin wicker can withstand weather fluctuations and moisture better than organic rattan, so it may be more suitable in climates with harsh winters. Furthermore, painted pieces may need occasional touch ups; using wood glue on affected areas and then sanding before repainting should provide effective repair of this damage.
It’s Affordable
Wicker patio furniture offers high quality without breaking the bank, making it an excellent option. Wicker is significantly less costly than many other forms of outdoor furniture such as those crafted from natural materials like rattan or bamboo because its material costs are lower, plus its maintenance requirements don’t necessitate protective coatings or chemicals as frequently.
Wicker furniture’s beauty lies in its ability to blend seamlessly into any interior decor style. Its geometric shapes and rounded lines make a modern space appear contemporary while its earthy brown tones lend themselves perfectly for rustic or beachy styles. Plus, wicker can even be used in more formal settings with suitable cushions and fabrics!
When shopping for wicker furniture, compare both prices and quality before making your selection. Some affordable brands use leftover strands from weaving their sets, which may unravel over time. To prevent this from happening, select sets with thicker gauge aluminum frames. Also ensure that any tightened sections can support your weight efficiently.
Another key consideration for your wicker furniture’s long-term success in your climate is how long it will stand the test of time in its environment. Extreme heat or salt water conditions will hasten its decomposition faster; for best results, bring it indoors during periods of extreme heat or extreme cold to protect it.
