Know before you buy
Yes. The Catherine collection is engineered with a specific tension in the wicker weave that provides a supportive, spring-like feel. It is designed to be used as-is, though you can certainly add decorative throw pillows if you prefer a softer look.
The open-weave construction is actually an advantage in wet climates. Because it allows for maximum airflow and drainage, water passes through the frame rather than pooling, which helps prevent mildew and keeps the material dry.
Absolutely. The combination of a powder-coated aluminum frame and high-quality all-weather wicker is specifically rated to resist rust and degradation from salt air, direct sun, and heavy rain.
Very little. You can keep the settee looking new by simply rinsing it with a garden hose to remove dust or debris. For a deeper clean, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
At 40 pounds, the settee is substantial enough to remain stable in most residential outdoor settings. However, if you live in an area prone to extreme wind gusts, you may want to position it in a sheltered area or against a wall.
