6. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will ensure the longevity and appearance of your ZEYUAN garden chairs.
- Polyrattan Frame: Clean the PE rattan regularly with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cushions: The cushions are designed for outdoor use but should be stored indoors during heavy rain or off-season to prevent mildew and fading. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Allow to air dry completely before storing.
- General Care: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they are tight. If the chairs are exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, consider using a protective cover when not in use to prevent UV damage.
