Wooden Furniture Care Guide
Understand the Nature of Wood:
Our wooden furniture, including Bali, Martinique, and Porto collections, features a light PU coating for added protection. However, it's important to note that wood is a natural material that may develop cracks and splits over time as it contracts and expands. Rest assured, these natural occurrences do not compromise the strength or durability of the furniture.

Regular Cleaning:
Keep your wooden furniture clean by wiping it with a damp cloth regularly. For best results, purchase our Maze - Wood Garden Furniture Cleaning & Protector Kit which is specially designed for wooden furniture.

Seasonal Maintenance:
Twice a year, apply Maze's protector to your wooden furniture. This protective treatment helps shield the wood from environmental elements and extends its lifespan. Apply the protector in autumn to prepare for winter conditions and again in spring to safeguard the furniture for warmer weather ahead.

Avoid Using Covers:
We do not recommend using covers for our wooden furniture. Instead, regular cleaning and maintenance as outlined above are sufficient to preserve its quality.

Natural Colour Changes:
Untreated wood may undergo colour changes over time due to exposure to sunlight and other environmental factors. This natural aging process adds character to the furniture but can be minimised with proper care and maintenance.

Can furniture be left outside all year round?

We can confirm that all of our furniture can be left outside all year round. However we do recommend purchasing one of our winter protective covers for your furniture even the sun can cause issues. Our covers provide superior protection from the elements. We strongly advise that all cushions should not be stored underneath your protective cover, otherwise the cushions will become water stained. In addition all cushions should be stored in a dry location when not in use.

Do our products fade in sunlight?

All of our PE Rattan products provide UV protection to ensure they do not fade in sunlight, resulting in years of enjoyment. Please see our cushion care guide for more details. We recommend not to place in direct sun and cover when not in use, Also parasol or other means of shade is useful in the hottest months.

How do I care for my furniture?

We recommend cleaning your furniture without the cushions at least once a year. 

Brush the furniture down to remove leaves and debris. Use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth to wipe dirt away. After the dirt has been removed we recommend rinsing your furniture.

Is our furniture fully assembled?

Many of our furniture ranges come fully assembled, as they are fully aluminium welded. The only components which usually require assembly are our tables, parasols and storage boxes. Please note that some furniture ranges come in sections and will require assembly.

Do you use Tempered Glass?

Yes we can confirm all of our glass has been tempered for your safety.

Does our Rattan Contract and Expand?

Yes all of our rattan will contract and expand based on the current weather conditions. In warm weather, our rattan will expand and then contract back to its original state once temperatures become cooler. This is a completely normal trait for rattan garden furniture and in result will stop the weave from snapping and becoming brittle in the winter months.

Please avoid leaving reflective objects on your table in direct sunlight. Glass table tops must not be located in direct sunlight (Glasses, Bottles, Ornaments) as this may lead to your rattan damaging in the sun.

Rattan Colour and Pattern Variation

Please note many of our rattan weaves are made up of varying colour strands and the strands can vary in thickness due to the items being handmade. These variations can look slightly different once in your garden depending on the level of sunlight and the design of each set may mean your weave is woven in different configurations. The colour can also vary, in the morning some ranges may look a little greyer and in the afternoon the sun may pick out more beige tones. All our photos have been taken in different settings and lighting. All our items are handwoven; no weaving is identical throughout our sets. All finishing strands are pinned in place to assure they do not unravel.

Rising Table Function

Rising tables are designed to be easily raised or lowered. We have designed these tables with no moving parts to ensure the most durable design. Our rising tables come with either an easy lock in, lock out mechanism or a gas lift lever.
