Outsunny Rattan Sofa Set 4-Piece With Glass-Top Table (Mixed Grey)

What exactly is included in the Outsunny 860-124V70GY 4-piece rattan sofa set?

The package includes one double sofa, two single chairs and one glass-top coffee table. You also get one double seat cushion, two single seat cushions and four back cushions. A user guide and instruction manual are included to help with assembly. Everything arrives in a single package so nothing needs to be ordered separately.

Is the rattan on this set real or synthetic and does it matter for outdoor use?

The rattan used is PE (polyethylene) rattan, which is a synthetic material. Unlike natural rattan, PE rattan does not absorb moisture, crack in frost or fade quickly in sunlight. This makes it far more suitable for outdoor use in the UK climate where rain and temperature changes are common. The mixed grey tone also means minor fading is less noticeable over time.

What are the exact dimensions of each piece in the set?

The double sofa measures 129cm wide x 78cm deep x 83cm high. Each single chair measures 63cm wide x 78cm deep x 83cm high. The coffee table measures 96cm long x 46cm wide x 42cm high. The seat height across the chairs and sofa is 36cm from the ground. These dimensions make the set suitable for most standard patio and garden spaces.

How much weight can the sofa and chairs hold?

The double sofa (loveseat) has a weight capacity of 220kg. Each single armchair can hold up to 160kg. The glass-top coffee table has a weight capacity of 30kg. These are solid figures that make the set suitable for everyday use by adults of varying sizes without concern about structural integrity.

Does this set require assembly and how difficult is it?

Yes, assembly is required. A manual and instruction guide are included in the package. The aluminium frame construction means the pieces are relatively straightforward to put together. Most customers find the process manageable with basic tools. It is worth setting aside a couple of hours and having a second person on hand to help position the larger sofa piece during assembly.

How do I care for and maintain this rattan sofa set?

The manufacturer recommends wiping the rattan and frame with a dry cloth. Because the rattan is PE-based it does not require oiling or specialist treatment. For the cushions, it is advisable to store them indoors or in a weatherproof storage box during prolonged wet weather or winter months. The glass table top can be cleaned with a standard glass cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials on the rattan weave as this can loosen the fibres over time.

What is the return and warranty policy for the 860-124V70GY?

Aosom UK offers a 30-day return policy from the date of delivery. If the item is faulty you can request a refund, partial refund, replacement parts or a full replacement within the first 30 days. After 30 days and within 6 months of delivery for non-electrical goods, replacement parts or a full replacement may be available if the fault is deemed to have been present at the time of delivery.

Is this set suitable for year-round outdoor use in the UK?

The aluminium frame and PE rattan construction make this set more weather-resistant than natural rattan or steel-framed alternatives. Aluminium does not rust and PE rattan handles moisture well. That said, for best longevity it is advisable to use a furniture cover during winter or extended periods of heavy rain. The cushions should be brought indoors when not in use as polyester fabric can absorb moisture if left out in prolonged wet conditions.
