Outdoor sofas are hard to shop. You need to consider the material so that it can be ambient elements, maybe purchase a storage bin to store the mat and consider the color, because who wants visible stains? That’s why I’m so interested in the outside world. The company’s sofas come with Outershell, which is a built-in lid wrapped around the sofa cushion to prevent them from bird drops and rain. When you are not using them, just pull it onto the mat and paste the Velcro underneath. If you are leaving your home for a long time, otherwise there will be a storm along the way, with a gripper handle on the cover that you can easily grab them with one hand and take them indoors.
I was lazy and brought the mat to one time before a big storm. Otherwise, I just left my sweaters on the cushion and they still looked great for the two months of testing. (That’s all kinds of rainstorms and heat waves.) There’s no mold or anything on the external performance fabric mats, which are made of recyclable materials and also have waterproof barriers, and they look the same. I have navy colors so I found nothing, but the good news is that the mat cover is machine washable.
A sofa ready to hang out is very easy – you can roll up the cover and hide it, or you can throw it in your seat. It has my wife’s seal of approval! Considering she’s picky, it’s a tall bar. She was very happy on the sofa outside as I typed these words. The OuterCloud cushions are super plush and soft, and the fabric doesn’t feel rough on the skin.
The sofa itself uses forest management council certified wood, which means the teak used here is harvested from responsible management of the forest. It looks beautiful and feels solid. But you don’t have to be restricted by teak – the outer also has wicker and aluminum options. Speaking of which, you can use Outer’s modular seating tools to build your favorite seat layout completely, or choose one of the pre-configured options, whether it’s including the L-section or two armless chairs.
It is costly and I need to see how the outgoing invoice price is for the year, especially when winter comes, but so far there is a lot of love and the overall quality is promising. If I could make a wish, it was that the chair had a wider arm so that I could put down a cup of coffee, although this could also invite overflow. –Julian Chokkattu
