Not at all — rattan furniture is surprisingly easy to maintain.

Here’s the truth:
Good-quality rattan practically takes care of itself. It's durable, lightweight, and made to last. Just follow these simple tips:

Basic Rattan Care:

• Dust it regularly with a soft cloth or vacuum brush.

• Wipe with a damp cloth (not soaking wet) to keep it clean.

• Keep it dry — rattan doesn’t like sitting in moisture.

• Avoid harsh sunlight to prevent fading if it’s natural rattan.

• Tighten screws or check joints occasionally if it’s a flat-pack build.

Bonus:

For spills or deeper cleans, use a mild soap and warm water — then dry it off with a soft towel. That's it.

So no, it’s not hard at all. In fact, that’s why people love it — rattan gives you texture and style without the high maintenance.
