Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and extend the lifespan of your VINGLI Outdoor Bar Stools.

• Cleaning: Wipe the frame and rattan with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. For more stubborn dirt, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by thorough drying.
• Cushion Care: The seat cushion cover is designed to be waterproof and can dry quickly after rain. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with a mild detergent and water. Allow to air dry completely.
• Frame Inspection: Periodically inspect the metal frame for any signs of rust or damage. Touch up any scratches with appropriate outdoor furniture paint to prevent rust.
• Fastener Check: Regularly check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as needed to maintain stability.
• Storage: During prolonged periods of non-use or harsh weather conditions, it is recommended to store the stools indoors or cover them with protective outdoor furniture covers to prevent wear and tear.

Troubleshooting
