Care & maintenance tips for outdoor dining tables
With a little care, your folding outdoor dining table will stay beautiful and functional for years. Here are our top tips:
- Clean regularly: Wipe the surface with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Protect during bad weather: Although many of our tables are weather-resistant, we recommend using furniture covers or folding them away when not in use during heavy rain or snow.
- Oil wooden tables: If your table is made from wood like acacia or eucalyptus, treat it with outdoor furniture oil once or twice a year to maintain its natural look.
- Store smartly: Fold your table flat and keep it in a dry, sheltered place during winter or extended periods of non-use.
- Check hardware: Occasionally tighten screws or bolts to keep your table sturdy and safe.
