Can garden furniture be left outside?

Yes, but it depends on the material. Weather-resistant materials like rattan-effect resin, powder-coated metal, and treated hardwoods are designed for outdoor use. However, prolonged exposure to rain and UV rays can cause wear over time. Using furniture covers or storing cushions indoors helps prolong their lifespan.
