Care and Cleaning Instructions
To ensure your outdoor cushions stay in great shape for years to come, it’s important to care for them properly. With just a few simple steps, you can extend the life of your cushions and keep them looking fresh and comfortable.
Daily & Seasonal Care Tips
Here are some ways to keep your cushions lasting as long as possible:
• Cover them when not in use
Protect your cushions from sun, rain, and debris by using outdoor covers.
• Put them away in a dry storage area in the off seasons
During colder months or extended periods of non-use, store cushions indoors or in a protected storage space to prevent mildew or fading.
• Store them flat to keep their shape so they don’t fold over
Avoid bending or stacking cushions unevenly—lay them flat to help maintain their original form.
How to Clean Your Cushions
Outdoor living can lead to the occasional spill, dirt, or pollen build-up. Follow these steps to clean your cushions effectively without damaging the fabric or structure:
• Remove the cushion from the chair
This makes it easier to clean thoroughly and avoid getting your furniture wet.
• Gently brush off any loose dirt or debris
Use a soft-bristled brush or dry cloth to clear away surface dust and grime.
• Spray the whole cushion or certain area with lukewarm water or a garden hose
A light rinse helps loosen dirt and prepares the fabric for cleaning.
• Clean with a mild soapy solution
Mix warm water with a gentle detergent or soap. Using a sponge or soft cloth, scrub the surface in circular motions.
• Rinse off the whole cushion with a garden hose
Be sure to remove all soap residue to avoid any film or buildup.
• Lay the cushions on their side to completely dry
Ensure full drying by propping cushions upright or sideways in a well-ventilated area—never use a dryer.
• Put back on the lounge chair and enjoy relaxing again
Once dry, your cushions are ready for use. Sit back and enjoy your refreshed outdoor space.
Regular maintenance goes a long way in preserving the look and feel of your cushions. For additional protection, consider investing in cushion covers or storage bags, especially if your area experiences extreme weather.
