While Ovios wicker furniture is built to last, several factors can potentially cause damage. Prolonged exposure to extreme weather conditions such as harsh sunlight, heavy rain, or snow can degrade the wicker over time. Physical stress, like exceeding the weight capacity (for example, 350 lbs for individual chairs in the Patio Furniture Set 3-Piece with Swivel Chairs), can strain the frame. Improper cleaning using harsh chemicals or abrasive tools may damage the wicker's surface. Although Ovios uses synthetic PE wicker, which is less susceptible to pests, some insects might still attempt to nest in the furniture. Additionally, if left damp for extended periods, mold and mildew can grow on cushions or wicker.
To prevent damage, it's important to follow care instructions, use furniture covers when not in use for long periods, and address any issues promptly. By taking these precautions, you can help ensure your Ovios wicker furniture remains in excellent condition for years to come.
