Replica rattan material won't warp, sag, dry, or fade like real rattan. It's far more durable than real rattan and easier to clean and maintain. Simply give it a quick wipe with a damp cloth to remove stubborn marks and staining. Legs are made from heavy-duty steel with a powder-coated finish for enhanced rust-resistance. Compact folding design allows you to easily transport the bistro set in a campervan or car to soak up the sunshine on summer adventures. Real rattan furniture is big, bulky and difficult to store away, which is why many people leave it outside all year round and run the risk of it fading. Because the table and chairs fold flat, they're easy to store in a shed or garage. ClassicLiving
