Assembling rattan cube furniture can seem daunting, but with the right instructions, you can easily set up your new set and enjoy your outdoor space in no time.
Here’s a straightforward guide to help you assemble your rattan cube furniture efficiently.
Step 1: Unbox and Organise Your Components
Start by unboxing your rattan cube set.
Lay out all pieces out - that's always a good place to start. Check against the inventory list to ensure nothing is missing. With the rattan furniture we supply, you'll find a manual with the parts list clearly listed.
Step 2: Assemble the Table
Begin by assembling the table. Start with the tabletop face down on a soft surface to prevent scratches. Each leg should be aligned with the pre-drilled holes found underneath the tabletop. It’s helpful to have all the legs positioned and ready before you start screwing them in.
Take the screws provided and start by loosely attaching each leg with just a couple of turns. This approach allows some wiggle room to ensure all legs are properly aligned. Once all the legs are loosely in place, go back and tighten each screw firmly with a screwdriver or an Allen key, depending on the type of screws included. Ensure that each leg is securely attached and that there's no wobble in the table’s structure.
If your table has additional support elements like crossbars or a lower shelf, attach these next. Crossbars will often slot into notches on the legs and secure with additional screws, enhancing the stability of the table. If there’s a shelf, it should fit into grooves or mount with brackets depending on the design. Secure these elements tightly as they contribute to the overall rigidity of the table.
After all components are attached, gently flip the table right side up. It’s a good idea to do this with two people to maintain control and prevent any damage to the table or injury to yourself. Once upright, give the table a gentle shake to ensure everything feels stable and solid. This is also a good time to check the level of the table; if it seems off, verify that all legs are tightened equally or adjust as necessary.
Finally, inspect all joints and connections once more to make sure nothing loosened during the flipping process. Tightening the screws after the table is upright can often secure them better, as the weight of the table helps to settle the components into their final positions. With these steps, your table is now ready for use, promising a sturdy and reliable surface for your outdoor activities.
Ensure each leg is securely tightened and stable before moving on. For examples of the types of rattan tables we have available, see this Brown Rattan Dining Set.
Step 3: Put Together the Chairs
Attach the back and seat panels of the chairs to each other, and then affix the legs. Use the screws and tools provided in your kit to secure all connections.

Key Takeaway: Ensure each chair is assembled correctly to avoid any instability or future mishaps.

Step 4: Arrange the Cushions
Once the frame of your rattan cube furniture is assembled, place the cushions. Most cushions have ties or Velcro to secure them to the frame, preventing any slipping or movement.
