Our advice Buying Guide
Are rattan benches durable?
Rattan is related to the palm tree, making it a robust option for wooden outdoor furniture. Rattan benches are extremely strong, and how long they last depend on the type of material and level of care they receive. Natural rattan furniture, and synthetic rattan, are resilient to the outdoors, able to withstand harsh sun or cold winter temperatures.
However, to keep your bench in pristine shape, occasionally move your bench indoors or place a protective cover over it during extreme weather. This is crucial for natural rattan more than synthetic, as the organic fibers can rot or develop mold with prolonged exposure to moisture.
Rattan benches are typically constructed of palm fibers woven over a wooden or metal frame, so your bench’s durability also depends on the materials used for the frame. Heavy-gauge powder-coated steel or galvanized aluminum will last the longest; however, if your bench’s wooden frame is sealed and treated, you can prolong its lifespan by sanding and re-sealing the frame every three to five years.
While your bench’s overall design is durable, occasionally, the weaving may loosen or require repairs. This is due to the thinness of the rattan threads. Cleaning and conditioning your rattan bench regularly can help extend its lifespan.
How do you waterproof rattan furniture?
You can waterproof your rattan benches and other types of rattan furniture through the use of a yacht varnish. Start by very lightly sanding down your rattan furniture with fine sandpaper; the idea isn’t to remove much of your rattan’s surface—you just want to give the varnish something better to stick to! Then, paint on 3 coats of a clear yacht varnish. Dry the varnish thoroughly over a few days, and then your rattan benches should be water-resistant.
Should rattan benches be indoors or outdoors?
Rattan benches are versatile and can be used indoors and outdoors. Keeping rattan furniture indoors requires less protective treatment than when they’re used outside.
Place rattan benches in sunrooms for an outdoor feel. Integrate rattan benches into your living space to contrast bright-colored sofas, cushions, and ottomans for a cozy aesthetic. If you choose to use your rattan bench for outdoor seating, be sure to use a protective cover when you’re not using it to protect it from UV rays and excess moisture.
Use UV and fade-resistant cushions for your rattan bench outdoors.
