also require UV protection. Choose weather-resistant<br />
woods like teak, redwood, cypress and cedar.<br />
Lush and Plush<br />
You may want steel or wood construction in your patio<br />
furniture for stability and longevity, but don't forget<br />
that without some homey comforts like soft, plush<br />
cushions, your outdoor furniture will go largely unused.<br />
Avoid pancake cushions. You know, those thin, puny<br />
little cushions that aren't plush or even very pliable.<br />
Opt for chubby cushions that feel light when you<br />
pick them up. Look for cushions with polyester filler,<br />
too. The more lightweight and springy the filler is, the<br />
more quickly it will dry out after exposure to moisture.<br />
That means it will resist mould and mildew and stay<br />
comfortable and sweet smelling longer.<br />
Check the Details<br />
An outdoor set can look attractive but have glaring<br />
flaws that can lead to problems after a few months:<br />
• When inspecting metal furniture, bring a magnet.<br />
Aluminium is not magnetic, but steel often is. Although it<br />
doesn't work with all types of steel, you can sometimes<br />
distinguish aluminium from steel construction (or<br />
fittings) by just testing them with a magnet. Remember,<br />
steel will rust while aluminium and stainless steel won't.<br />
