Know before you buy
Poly-lumber is a high-density polyethylene material made from recycled plastics. It is chosen for outdoor furniture because it is weather-resistant, won't rot or splinter like wood, and does not require seasonal staining or painting.
Yes, the umbrella hole is designed to fit most standard-sized patio umbrella poles. It provides a stable way to add shade directly between the two seats.
The Tete-a-tete measures 70 inches in length and 38 inches in depth. You should ensure you have at least a few extra feet of clearance around the perimeter to allow for comfortable access and movement.
The bench arrives unassembled and requires basic tools to put together. While the process is straightforward, it is recommended to have two people assist with the assembly to manage the weight and alignment of the poly-lumber components.
The 300-pound weight capacity refers to the limit per seat. This ensures the structure remains stable and safe for two adults.
