About the Prospect Hill Collection
About the Prospect Hill Collection
The High-Density Polyethylene resin wicker patio furniture from the Prospect Hill collection will have a very tight weave, just like the rich rattan wicker, that will cover the powder-coated aluminum frames. Resin wicker will have the color died in one of three colors-Beach House Walnut, Cloud White (an off white color, not bright white), and Driftwood.
Cushions in 5 different colors will be included in the sofa and love seat seating sets, not in the dining or rest of the sets or pieces. Cushions are available in 15 different designs and colors for purchase at an extra price of $30.99 for each cushion.

Chairs and seating pieces will support 250 pounds per seating position, gliders will only support 200 pounds per seating position. Dining chairs will be open under the arms and all other sitting pieces will have resin wicker skirts under the arms.

My final thoughts on this collection
I like the look and feel of this Outdoor Weather Resistant Wicker Furniture, many collections will not have this many selections of sets or pieces. Some accessories like a rack and cushions are available when you purchase your patio furniture. The deep sitting sofa, love seat, and chairs will give hours of sitting enjoyment, you will have a hard time prying your butt off the cushions.
Dining sets will give you a great look for your outdoor space with a fraction of the cost of a rattan wicker set.
I would include a cover and storage for the cushions with this purchase to make my investment last longer. Cleaning with a gentle mixture of mild soap and water will be all that is needed to keep this patio furniture clean. Do not use glass cleaner on the tabletops, it will damage the powder-coated finish of the frames.
Customers liked the construction of these pieces, the comfortable high backs of the seating pieces, and the reasonable price for this resin wicker collection.
Prospect hill resin wicker looks incredible and I could easily go overboard when trying to get the right mix. My concern is about the actual wicker and how well it handles the wind. You mention getting a cover for the furniture, but can you explain how secure and protective that would be for protection against debris on a windy day?
Eric,
The resin wicker itself is very sturdy and will withstand most things throw at it. The cover is for long term storage against the winter weather and summer sun. The great thing about the resin wicker is that if it does get damaged, you can weave in new material to take its place.
John
I like this wicker patio furniture set. The only draw back is that I would most definitely have to purchase covers for the set due to the weather here in Florida. Does the company also have coverings available for this for purchase? Otherwise, I guess I would just buy tarps possibly?
Leahrae,
Covers are available at an extra cost. Spending the extra money will really make your investment last a lot longer in the Florida sun.
John
That is great to have patio furniture that is durable for the outdoors, especially in Northern Canada. This furniture looks like it will last for years and you can add different cushions and pillows to change it up a bit over time. Love the one with the cup holder too, I’m partial to cup holders. Thanks for sharing!
Tara,
The magazine rack/cup holder is a great option for this collection of resin wicker patio furniture. I have not seen one with any other collection.
John
Hello John, nice article. My fave is the magazine rack/cup holder – what a nifty idea. Wicker is ok but I find it can be so bulky and somewhat hard to clean once the dust starts settling in between the twine design, even though it is made from resin material. I liked the woodsy color set. The others are ok, but if I had to make a choice, it would be the brown color.
Thnx for sharing.
Michelle
Michelle,
The rack is a great extra for this collection. Gives you a place to put your stuff so you do not have to get up as often. Resin wicker patio furniture is a great solution to having patio furniture that will last for several seasons
