Rattan Garden Furniture

Hi There

Has anyone recently bought Rattan Garden Furniture from Moda Furnishings or Feature Deco (or elsewhere) where you have received the products within a reasonable time period and been happy with the quality of the actual product?

We want to purchase a large rattan cube set with two 3 seater sofas (as opposed to 6 chairs). Moda Furnishings and Feature Deco are the only two companies I can find who supply this but the reviews, particularly for Moda, are highly confusing. There are 90%+ endorsing them and singing their praises (it's hard to tell if these are genuine or paid for) and the rest advise steering well clear due to dishonesty across the board with promising false timescales and poor quality products. People also say that these companies are getting the negative reviews taken down by offering sweeteners to do so or getting TrustPilot to remove the reviews claiming they breach the standards (because people are complaining before receiving the product!).

It's a minefield out there so if there is anyone who is able to share a genuine experience having bought furniture from either of these two suppliers (or if you can recommend elsewhere) that would be much appreciated.

Following. I’ve not heard of either company but looking to buy some garden furniture this summer.

I have a Kettler Palma corner set which has 2 3 seater sofas. It's brilliant quality, and has really changed my life.

Loveka, this sounds great! I'm so desperate for garden furniture, I want my life to be changed too ;o) so hope you don't mind me asking for more info...

Have you had the set for long? I've had a quick look on the net - is this the one you have or something similar? www.kettler.co.uk/palma-corner-set/

You mention that it's a corner set, can the two sofas be separated or do they need to be in the corner formation?

Thanks Smile

Loveka - are the cushions with the Kettler set kid proof - do they stain easily with lots of very messy eaters? And do you have to have the huge cushion box to put them all into when not in use?

I love the round Palma set but don’t think it could withstand my toddlers!

The sofas separate, in fact we have them like that. They are fantastic quality, worth every penny.

The cushions are heavy duty and withstand a shower. I have covers which I put on for heavy rain. I keep them behind the sofa and just pull them over.

I have had them a year now. Last year I didn't use the cover and the cushions got soaked through several times. They still look great!

I love MN.

That link has gone straight onto Pinterest under my 'New House' board.

Another job, jobbed !!

Thanks Loveka for clarifying. It all sounds great and the fact that the cushions are heavy duty is a real bonus Smile
