What makes rattan cube sets different from regular rattan dining sets?

Rattan cube sets feature a unique space-saving design where stools tuck entirely beneath the table, forming a compact cube when not in use. This dramatically reduces the patio footprint—cube sets seat 8-10 people when unpacked but pack down to less than half that space. The footstools serve dual purposes as extra seating and footrests, making them ideal for smaller gardens or patios where you want maximum flexibility.

Are rattan cube sets available in different colours?

Yes, our rattan cube sets come in popular colours including grey, black, truffle brown, and chocolate mix. Some ranges also offer two-tone designs such as black rattan with vanilla cushions for a striking contrast. All rattan colours are UV-stabilised to resist fading over time, and cushions can be purchased separately in alternative colours.

How many people can a rattan cube set seat?

Rattan cube sets typically seat 8-10 guests. An 8-seater cube includes four chairs and four footstools; a 10-seater includes four chairs and six footstools. For everyday family use with 4-6 people, leave some footstools tucked under the table to maintain a smaller footprint.

Are rattan cube sets easy to assemble and move?

Rattan cube sets arrive flat-packed with illustrated step-by-step instructions, taking 1.5-2 hours for a standard 8-10 seater with two people. The modular design means you assemble the table frame, attach the glass top, then assemble individual stools and chairs. Once assembled, the set is sturdy but can still be moved if needed, though the glass-topped table is best moved by two people.

Can I leave my rattan cube set outside in winter?

Yes, rattan cube sets withstand UK winters with PE rattan and powder-coated aluminium frames that resist rain, frost, and snow. For maximum longevity, cover with a weatherproof furniture cover during the wettest months (October-March) and store cushions indoors. With seasonal care, your rattan cube set will provide excellent service for 5-10 years or more.
