FAQs

Our heated furniture is powered by electricity. Simply plug in the furniture to any standard 120v outlet (GFCI for outdoor use) and turn on the control knob. There, you can set to your desired temperature, between 80 - 120 degrees and adjust as needed. Your furniture will begin heating and will hit the set temperature in approximately 10-15 mins, depending on the ambient temperature. Each items comes with an automatic shut off feature after 8 hours of use.

Yes, the cords are outdoor grade and outdoor outlets are required by National Electrical Code to be ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected.

Our furniture has been in the market for over 12 years so we know a thing or two about longevity and durability. All of our pieces are hand made from natural materials so slight variation in the finish and color is likely and not considered a defect. Hairline cracks can form over time and are not to be considered a defect, simply patina. Galanter & Jones pieces are incredibly resilient, however unintentional damage can occur and is easily avoidable. In order to avoid the formation of visible scratches, do not place or drag sharp or coarse objects on the surface (like those keys in your pocket!). Avoid any contact with acidic materials on the surface such as citrus, berries, olive oil, red wine as they can be harsh to the sealant and can possibly stain.

For excessive wear & tear, we sell at-home resealing kits for $40. Simply contact us and we'll help you place that order.

Our outdoor furniture is incredibly durable and requires minimal to no maintenance. To avoid stains due to spills, we recommend keeping it clean using a mild, non-abrasive cleaner or simply warm water and a soft towel. Avoid anything abrasive, acidic or that contains bleach. These could damage the sealer. If you won’t be using the pieces for an extended period of time and in extreme conditions such as heavy snow, we recommend storing under an overhang or using a cover. Let us know if you are interested in ordering one!
