2-Seater Outdoor Sofa Cover 170x90x60cm

This 170x90x60cm outdoor furniture cover is designed to protect a compatible 2-seater garden sofa or lounge sofa from dust, dirt and weather exposure. Garden furniture is regularly exposed to sunlight, rain, dust, leaves and other outdoor debris. Covering your furniture when it is not in use helps reduce this direct exposure.

The grey cover is made from HDPE polyethylene, has a material weight of 100g/m² and is UV-resistant. A nylon cord at the bottom allows the cover to be secured around the furniture.

Which Garden Furniture Will Fit a 170x90x60cm Cover?

This cover is intended for a 2-seater outdoor sofa or similar lounge furniture that fits within the appropriate dimensions. The description “2-seater” alone does not guarantee a correct fit, as garden furniture dimensions vary considerably between manufacturers and models.

Always measure the maximum width, depth and height of your furniture before ordering, including armrests, the backrest and any other projecting parts.

How to Measure an Outdoor Sofa for a Cover

Measure the maximum external dimensions of the complete piece of furniture and compare them with the 170x90x60cm cover. Do not measure the seating area alone.

1. Measure the overall width of the outdoor sofa.
2. Measure the maximum depth from front to back.
3. Measure the total height to the highest point.
4. Include armrests, backrests and projecting parts.
5. Compare all measurements with the dimensions of the cover.

The cover should fit over the furniture without being continuously stretched tightly across sharp corners or projecting parts.

Protection from Dust, Dirt and the Weather

The garden furniture cover helps protect your outdoor sofa from dust, dirt and direct exposure to the weather. This is particularly useful when garden furniture remains outdoors but is not being used for a period of time.

A furniture cover does not automatically prevent every form of moisture exposure. Humid air and condensation can still occur underneath a cover, which is why ventilation remains important.

HDPE Garden Furniture Cover

The cover is made from HDPE, or high-density polyethylene. This plastic material itself absorbs very little moisture and is suitable for practical outdoor applications.

The specified material weight is 100g/m². Avoid pulling the cover tightly across sharp edges and take care not to damage the material on projecting parts of the furniture.

UV-Resistant Outdoor Furniture Cover

This garden furniture cover is UV-resistant. The material is therefore designed to withstand exposure to ultraviolet radiation better during outdoor use.

UV resistance does not mean that a material can never age or change appearance after prolonged exposure to strong sunlight. Actual exposure depends on factors such as location, intensity of sunlight and duration of use.

Outdoor Sofa Cover with Nylon Cord

A nylon cord at the bottom allows the cover to be secured around the furniture. This helps keep the cover in position and reduces the likelihood of it moving during normal outdoor conditions.

Check the cover and its fastening during strong winds. No loose garden furniture cover should be assumed to be completely stormproof.

Why Use a Cover for Garden Furniture?

A garden furniture cover reduces direct exposure to dirt and the elements while your furniture is not in use. This can be particularly useful when an outdoor sofa remains on a patio or in the garden throughout the season.

The cover helps protect against:

• dust and loose dirt;
• leaves and garden debris;
• direct rainfall;
• bird droppings;
• direct sunlight and UV exposure.

How to Reduce Condensation Under a Furniture Cover

Allow sufficient air circulation around and underneath covered garden furniture. Covering furniture while it is still wet can trap moisture underneath the cover for longer periods.

Whenever possible, make sure both the furniture and cover are sufficiently dry before covering the sofa. During longer storage periods, check the furniture regularly and ventilate it when necessary.

Can Outdoor Cushions Stay Under the Cover?

Whether cushions can remain outside underneath the cover depends on the specifications and care instructions of the cushions themselves. A furniture cover does not automatically make moisture-sensitive cushions suitable for permanent outdoor storage.

If the cushions are not designed for prolonged outdoor storage, keeping them in a dry indoor or suitable storage space is generally preferable. Always follow the cushion or furniture manufacturer's care instructions.

Using a Garden Furniture Cover in Winter

The cover can also be used when your outdoor sofa will not be used for an extended period. Clean and dry the furniture before covering it and make sure that some ventilation remains possible.

Remove accumulations of water, snow, leaves and other debris from the cover when necessary. Prolonged additional weight should be avoided.

How to Use an Outdoor Furniture Cover

1. Clean the outdoor sofa and remove loose dirt and leaves.
2. Allow the furniture to dry before fitting the cover.
3. Remove moisture-sensitive cushions if they are not suitable for prolonged outdoor storage.
4. Carefully place the cover over the complete sofa without forcing it over sharp edges.
5. Secure the cover at the bottom using the nylon cord.
6. Allow ventilation to help reduce trapped moisture and condensation.
7. Check the cover regularly, particularly after strong winds or severe weather.

How to Clean an HDPE Furniture Cover

Remove loose dirt regularly and clean the cover gently when required. Use a cleaning method suitable for HDPE and avoid aggressive products or tools that could damage the material.

Allow the cover to dry properly before folding it away for longer-term storage.

Recyclable HDPE Material

The furniture cover is made from recyclable HDPE. Actual recycling options depend on the waste and recycling facilities available in your local area.

When the cover eventually reaches the end of its useful life, dispose of it in accordance with local plastic recycling requirements where suitable collection facilities are available.
