How does natural rattan’s flexibility affect outdoor sofa stability on uneven ground?
Natural rattan's inherent flexibility plays a crucial role in the stability of outdoor sofas, especially on uneven ground. Unlike rigid materials, rattan can adapt to minor surface irregularities, reducing stress on the frame and preventing structural damage. This flexibility allows the sofa to maintain balance, minimizing wobbling or tipping. However, excessive flexibility without proper reinforcement may compromise long-term stability. High-quality rattan furniture often combines flexibility with sturdy framing to ensure durability. For outdoor use, selecting rattan sofas with reinforced bases enhances stability while retaining the material's natural adaptability, making them ideal for uneven terrains.
