Features and construction

The frames and all of the table is made of steel with either an E-coated or Powder coated finish. The table will have a wood grain look for the legs and top. The steel slatted top of the table will look like wood planks but will last longer with the proper care.

The chairs will have steel legs with a double cross brace for stability. The upper portion of the chair will have a woven resin wicker finish in variable brown colors. A tan cushion will give you long-term sitting comfort, it will need a storage solution to last more than a couple of years in outdoor weather conditions.

Assembly does take some time even for those with some skills. Each piece will have screw-type adjusters on the bottom of each foot. This will help if you are sitting this set on a surface that is not completely level.

Assembly and care of your patio furniture

The assembly for this set will take some skills to get it together quickly. All tools needed will be included in the hardware pack. Have a level surface for the final tightening of the hardware for the best results.

Each chair will need the seat and back attached to one arm set. Attach the other arm set and then the lower support bar. The cross brace only fits one way correctly, follow instructions closely. After all hardware is attached, sit the chair on its feet for final tightening for best results.

The table with the top upside down. will need the legs attached and then the leg brace. sit up on its legs before the final tightening of the hardware for the best results.

Care of this patio furniture will be dirty surfaces to be wiped down with a damp cloth for most spills. Tough marks will need a mild soap and water mixture. Do not use any harsh chemicals as they will damage the painted surfaces and they will start to discolor or peel.

The cushions will need a storage solution to last more than a few years in outdoor weather conditions. The covers do have zippers so they can be removed for cleaning. For some of my storage solutions, see my information here.
