The Ultimate Protection for Outdoor Furniture
Nov 5th, 2009 by Shari
These days, outdoor furniture is generally much more durable than the porch swings, gliders, and patio chairs of the past; and it certainly outlasts those flimsy folding chairs that everyone used to have. Geez – remember them? They had aluminum frames that were collapsible (even though they weren’t supposed to be!), and seats and backs made from those stiff strips of plastic.
When you sat on them in shorts, they’d leave big, red, square patches on the backs of your thighs. Moreover, there was a limited selection of colors, and only one style; but, if you wanted something really fancy, you could get the ones with gold threads running through the strips of plastic. Yeah, those were great; they left big, red, itchy squares on your thighs! Not many people know this, but those chairs were the true inspiration behind the Capri pants craze of the ‘60’s; it was not Mary Tyler Moore on ‘The Dick Van Dyke Show’ as is widely believed.
Of course, those porch chairs rarely lasted more than a season, nor were they meant to; but even the more expensive pieces couldn’t come close to achieving the longevity of today’s outdoor furniture. However, people have always tried to protect their patio furniture by storing it, or using outdoor furniture covers, in the winter; and, while that certainly helped, the covers back then weren’t much more durable than the furniture.
Fortunately, that’s all changed now. Here at CedarStore.com, along with our long-lasting, decay-resistant wood outdoor furniture, and our nearly indestructible, polywood, aluminum, synthetic wicker, and vinyl porch furniture, we have a wide assortment of incredibly strong furniture covers that will keep your outdoor chairs, picnic tables, rocking chairs, sofas, loveseats, and accent tables looking like new (or whatever condition they’re in when you cover them!).
They’re available in several ultra-durable, waterproof materials that are highly resistant to mold, mildew, and fading, and are easy to clean. Besides providing shelter from the harshest elements, our furniture covers come in several striking designs, colors, and patterns that are almost as beautiful as your furniture. Best of all, we offer free shipping on all of our covers; and many of them ship in just a few business days, so you can have them before the first snow flies.
And please don’t ask, “What are snow flies?”
Yours Outdoors,
