Constructed of 100% weather-resistant polycarbonate, the footrest is UV protected and designed for indoor or outdoor use. Unlike wooden furniture, the simulated wood will not fade, peel, chip, splinter nor rot when exposed to the elements and never needs to be painted or varnished. It is easy to clean and seamlessly complements any outdoor décor, making it a versatile addition to your patio, deck, garden, indoor sunroom or poolside.
