Wipe the wood surfaces down with a soft cloth and mild soapy water to remove dirt and surface debris. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry naturally. Avoid using abrasive cloths, harsh detergents, or pressure washers, as these can strip the natural oils from the wood surface.

Olefin cushion covers can be spot-cleaned with a soft brush and diluted mild detergent. Allow cushions to dry fully before storing. Remove cushions during heavy rain and store in a dry, well-ventilated space during the off-season to extend their lifespan.
