How To Choose the Perfect 4-Piece Ratan Furniture Set for The Summer

A 4-piece rattan garden furniture set is a great way to instantly upgrade an outdoor seating area. Stylish and durable it elevates the look and feel of gardens with its classy aesthetic and comfortable practicality but there are things to consider when trying to find the right set that fits your needs.

Which is better, rattan or wicker?

Wicker was a popular choice of yesteryear for outdoor furniture, and you may still see it around. However, more and more people are opting for rattan thanks to its visual appeal and unrivalled longevity. The natural beauty of the material on a 4-piece rattan garden furniture set is something that has seen it become a part of many family homes.

Can rattan furniture be left outside all year?

Good quality rattan furniture won’t weather if left outside. Other exterior factors could still affect it though so you may want to consider investing in a high-quality outdoor furniture cover for peace of mind but, generally speaking, rattan furniture that has been treated properly should hold up well against the elements.

Weatherproof options with machine washable cushion covers and sturdy frames can go a long way to keeping your outdoor furniture in good condition and making sure it lasts for a long time.

How can you tell if rattan is good quality?

PE rattan is the best quality for outdoor furniture as it is weather resistant and can be hand woven. This means that it will last longer than certain other types of rattan like PU or PVC rattan. You’ll find that all of Keplin’s rattan furniture is PE to ensure a long-lasting, high-quality product.

What size rattan should you get?

Knowing the size of your space and your exact needs is key in getting the right piece of outdoor furniture for you. For example, a 4-piece rattan garden furniture set will be ideal for a couple or those who enjoy entertaining just a few friends at a time.

Something like Keplin’s 4-piece rattan furniture set would be ideal for these settings, thanks to its robust build yet elegant looks. Coming with a tempered glass coffee table it’s great for having coffee in the garden or just sitting out in the sunshine and relaxing. Versatile enough to fit most spaces and effortless to clean, it’s a real winner for that luxurious bistro feel.

However, families or people who like larger gatherings and outdoor dinner parties may want to opt for the 8-seater Keplin rattan garden set as it offers that little extra seating room.

With a large, L-shaped corner seat and two stools that can be arranged around the included coffee table, the water-resistant cushions mean they can stay in place all year round. Enjoy leisurely afternoons chatting, eating and drinking in the garden, on the patio or in the conservatory for a deluxe and sophisticated vibe at all times.
