Product Information
Full details
The Charles Bentley Rope Weave Bistro Set is designed for individuals looking to maximize small outdoor spaces like balconies or intimate patios with a blend of mid-century aesthetic and modern durability. Featuring a robust aluminium frame with a realistic wood-effect finish, it offers the visual appeal of timber without the high maintenance requirements. While the set is crafted for style and comfort, users should be aware that the Olefin fabric cushions are sensitive to intense direct sunlight and should be covered or stored during extreme weather to preserve their lifespan.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can I leave this set outside all year?
While the aluminium frame is rust-resistant, it is strongly recommended to store the cushions indoors or under a cover during winter and harsh weather to protect the fabric.
How much weight can each chair hold?
Each chair has a maximum user weight capacity of 120kg.
Does the set require assembly?
The set comes with most components ready, but please refer to the included instruction manual for any necessary final assembly steps.
Is the wood-effect material actually wood?
No, it is a high-quality aluminium finish designed to look like wood, which provides the visual warmth of timber without the maintenance.
How do I store the chairs?
The chairs are designed to be stackable, allowing you to nest them vertically to save significant floor space.
What is the best way to clean the cushions?
Use a damp cloth and a mild soap solution for light cleaning. Do not machine wash the cushions as this may damage the fabric structure.
Troubleshooting
The table wobbles on my patio surface
Adjust the table placement or use furniture levelers; if the surface itself is sloped, ensure the feet are positioned on a flat, even section.
Fabric appears to be fading
Fading is often caused by prolonged UV exposure. Move the chairs to a shaded area when not in use and always use a protective cover.
Stains on the rope weave or cushions
Use a soft brush and warm soapy water to gently scrub the affected area. Avoid using high-pressure washers, which can fray the rope.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly of the Charles Bentley Bistro Set is straightforward due to the modular design. Ensure that you place the set on a level surface to prevent wobbling, particularly on uneven balcony decking or patio pavers.
Care Instructions:
- Frame Cleaning: Simply wipe down the aluminium frame with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dust or garden debris.
- Fabric Maintenance: The cushions are best cleaned by spot-treating spills immediately. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
- Storage: While the aluminium is weather-resistant, the Olefin cushions are the most vulnerable component. Use a breathable, waterproof furniture cover during winter months or heavy rain. Because the chairs stack, they can easily fit into a shed or garage to maximize space during the colder seasons.
