Mold/mildew Should I be worried that using this cover will cause mold or mildew on my cushions? For example, it rains one day

try placing a ball mid-table and other items on cushions to keep some air circulation going. Might mitigate your mildew problem.''''marinmarine

We bought several covers in the Veranda line. We noticed mildew on the inside of the table cover after a few cold foggy weeks (we live in the SF Bay Area). Concluded that it was due to condensation on the vinyl interior. Left our seat cushions underneath the Verdanda covers and some cushions did have condensation and some mildew. I removed the seat covers and soaked them in some bleach+laundry detergent over night. Mildew came out without a problem, but I don't know how I'm going to get the mildew off the interior of the Veranda covers.

In relatively dry Southern California, we store our cushions separately. There will be moisture under the cover.

I have not had any problems with mold or mildew. The handle dries out when you have finished making the rice. I am really happy with this rice maker!

I am not sure, my cushions were not too bad so I purchased some outdoor material and my covers.

Ours is on a covered porch outside. So it gets direct evening sun and wind blown rain. It is meant for outside use, but if you have it in a completely unprotected area where it is always exposed to the elements it would deteriorate faster. Think of hanging natural fiber string outside. If its a wet climate, mold and fungus could grow on it and weaken it. I would keep it a bit protected. I have never washed mine, they seem to always look nice as they age.

Ours has been in many rainstorms. There has been only a very minimal amount of water that got in (teaspoons), and it was during a very heavy rainstorm. I have not had it in the winter yet, but plan or storing the cushions there.

Not really. The cushions can be removed and stored. Or you can buy all weather covers. I live in Florida and they have been in intense sun and rain for two years with no problems.

My cushions got moldy after 2 years. I never liked the fabric and I'm currently looking to replace them.

We live in Utah where we have next to no mold problem so that is not an issue. However I was raised in the northeast where it is a big problem. I would suggest wiping it out every few weeks according to your humidity, which is the big factor. Sorry I can't help more. Have a good day.

I have had mine for two months and have not had any mold problems. It is padded using molded plastic. It does hold water between the frame and the cushion, but can easily be drained with just a tilt of the stool after use.

I have owned my deck box going on two years. I keep my furniture cushions in them all year around. So far I have had no water leakage where I have had wet or mildew cushions. I also have had no bugs in the box. However during the spring and summer as a precautionary measure I spray an insect repellant on the deck area under the box 2-3 times during this period. I never have had a problem. Hope this helps.

I was told by the Luxxella person who took my order over the phone that the fabric was not like sunbrella, that the cushions would get wet and mold. I ordered the sunbrella upgrade. I've received the furniture and original fabric but have not received the sunbrella cushion covers yet. They take longer to receive. 6 to 8 weeks I think; where the furniture arrived in about 3 weeks.

I have not had any problems with mildew, they are easy to clean. I actually use the bottom bucket for the bath toys myself.

No mildew. I take the sponge filter out after each use. It has worn out pretty fast but I use the fan alot at work 8 hours a day 5 says a week. Best buy ever.

I have 2 of these racks and love them! One of them is used in Florida, where it is humid, and we have not seen any mildew/mold. Have used it for 4-5 years. There is a coating of plastic on the rods.

I have not had any problem with mold or mildew. I don't know what material they are made from. All I know is they work for my handicapped husband.
