FAQs

What are the dimensions of the armchair?

The dimensions are W 63 cm x D 70.5 cm x H 80 cm, with a seat height of 36.5 cm.

Is the armchair suitable for all weather conditions?

Yes, the die-cast aluminum and heat-treated Ashwood are designed for outdoor use and offer excellent durability. However, covering or storing during extreme weather is recommended for longevity.

Does the wood require regular treatment?

The heat-treatment process makes the wood rot-proof and insect-resistant, meaning it's durable even without treatment. However, applying a wood protector periodically can help maintain its original color and appearance.

Can this armchair be used indoors?

While designed for outdoor use, its sleek design also makes it suitable for indoor spaces, particularly in sunrooms or areas with an open-plan layout.

How difficult is the assembly process?

The armchair is designed for easy user assembly and comes in kit form with instructions. Most users find the process straightforward.

Will the wood color change over time?

Yes, the Ashwood will develop a natural patina over time, which adds to its timeless charm. This is a natural aging process for outdoor wood.

What kind of maintenance does the aluminum frame require?

The aluminum frame requires minimal maintenance. A simple wipe-down with a damp cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Armchair wobbles after assembly.

Ensure all screws and bolts are fully tightened. Check that the armchair is placed on a level surface.

Wood appears dry or faded.

Apply a suitable outdoor wood protector or oil to the Ashwood slats. This is cosmetic and does not affect structural integrity.

Surface marks on aluminum frame.

Gently clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Avoid abrasive materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This armchair is part of the Hay Traverse collection and is designed to be compatible with other items in this range, such as tables and stools. It also complements other outdoor furniture pieces with similar material aesthetics.

Care:

Frame: Wipe the aluminum frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish.
Wood: The heat-treated Ashwood is naturally resistant. Clean with mild soap and water if necessary. Periodically, you may wish to apply a wood protector or oil suitable for outdoor hardwoods to maintain its color and condition, though this is not strictly required for durability. Do not use harsh chemicals.
General: To prolong its life and maintain appearance, consider covering or storing the armchair during harsh weather or off-seasons.
