Know before you buy
Unlike natural wood, POLYWOOD Heritage™ Lumber is a high-density plastic composite that does not require staining, painting, or waterproofing. It is engineered to resist splintering, rotting, and cracking, making it significantly more durable for long-term outdoor use.
The stool is manufactured with ColorStay™ technology, which incorporates UV-inhibitor compounds directly into the material. This ensures the color remains vibrant and resistant to fading, even when exposed to intense, direct sunlight over many seasons.
Maintenance is minimal. You can keep the stool clean by simply wiping it down with a soft cloth, warm water, and mild soap. Because the material is non-porous, it does not absorb stains or moisture.
Yes. The high-density composition and weather-resistant finish make this stool an excellent choice for coastal areas. It will not corrode or degrade when exposed to salt spray or humid, salty air.
The 20-year warranty protects against structural defects, including splintering, rotting, cracking, chipping, or peeling. It ensures that the material integrity remains intact under normal outdoor residential use.
