The Bottom Line
May 21st, 2009 by Shari
These days, color plays a huge part in furnishing an outdoor living room (the area formerly known as the backyard). One of the big advantages of shopping at CedarStore.com is that we offer a full spectrum of color choices in outdoor furniture, so you’ll be able to find porch chairs, swings, face-to-face gliders, garden benches, ottomans, accent tables, and everything else, to complement any décor.
Our huge palette does not stop there, however, as we also feature a spectacular line of outdoor furniture cushions in scores of brilliant colors and stylish patterns. Because they are available in several materials as well, I thought I’d give you a bit of information about each.
Sunbrella®, which comes in a stunning variety of colors and designs, is unparalleled for its quality, durability, and ease of maintenance. It is highly resistant to mold, mildew, stains, and the fading that can be caused by the sun’s UV rays. The best way to keep it looking new is to avoid letting anything set into it, so be sure to brush off dust, dirt, or crumbs, before they become embedded in the fabric, and wipe up spills immediately. This should be no problem, because it’s what you would naturally do anyway. You can also spot-clean stains just by using warm water and mild soap.
Cushions made of olefin polypropylene and polyethylene spun fibers feel as soft as cotton fabrics, but have strength and durability that’s comparable to canvas. They are treated with a Teflon compound, which makes them resistant to tears, stains, and mildew. Finished with a UV inhibitor, they are wonderfully resistant to fading, so that their many colors stay true and vibrant for years. These, too, can be cleaned with soap and water.
Our 100% Polyester cushions feature an open weave, which gives them the feel of a soft fabric, and lets them breathe as well. They are also treated to resistant soil and stains, and can be spot cleaned with mild soap and water, or simply sprayed down with a hose.
Sunsharp and Teflon cushions, which also come in a rainbow of colors, are designed to withstand the elements in style, resisting soil, stains, dirt, and fading, and are as easy to clean as the rest of our cushions.
So, it appears that you can’t go wrong with any of them. No matter which you choose, comfort is the bottom line; so just relax and put your tush in our cushion.
Yours Outdoors,
Kathy
