6. Maintenance and Care
Proper maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your patio furniture set.

- Cushion Care: The seat cushions feature a zipper design, allowing covers to be removed for cleaning. Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Air dry only; do not tumble dry. Ensure cushions are completely dry before re-attaching or storing to prevent mildew.
- Glass Top Care: Clean the tempered glass table top with a standard glass cleaner and a soft cloth.
- Protection: To protect the furniture from harsh weather conditions and UV exposure, it is recommended to cover the set when not in use or during prolonged periods of inclement weather.
- Stability Check: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability.
