FAQs
What is the primary material of this garden bench?
The bench is crafted from solid oiled teak, known for its durability and natural beauty.
How many people can this bench comfortably seat?
This M12 model is designed to comfortably seat two people.
Does the bench require assembly?
Typically, FDB Mobler benches arrive fully assembled, so no assembly is required upon delivery.
How often should I oil the teak bench?
It is recommended to reapply teak oil at least once or twice a year, or as needed, to maintain the rich finish and protect the wood. Frequency may depend on your climate and exposure.
Can this bench be left outdoors year-round?
Teak is weather-resistant, but for maximum longevity and to preserve its original finish, it's advisable to protect it from extreme weather or store it in a dry, sheltered location during harsh winter months.
Will the teak change color over time?
Yes, if left untreated with oil, teak will naturally weather to a soft, silvery-grey patina. Regular oiling helps maintain its original warm tone.
What is the warranty period for FDB Mobler outdoor furniture?
Please refer to the retailer or FDB Mobler's official website for the most current warranty information, as warranty terms can vary.
Troubleshooting
Wood appears dry or faded.
Reapply a suitable teak oil following the product's instructions. Ensure the wood is clean and dry before application.
Surface stains or mildew appear.
Clean the affected area with a mild soap and water solution and a soft brush. For stubborn stains, a specialized teak cleaner may be necessary. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely before re-oiling if desired.
Bench feels unstable.
Check that the bench is on a level surface. For solid wood furniture, minor adjustments might be needed over time; ensure all parts are secure (though typically these benches are fully assembled and rigid).
Minor scratches or dings on the surface.
Light scratches can often be minimized by gently sanding the affected area with fine-grit sandpaper (following the wood grain) and then re-oiling the spot. Deeper marks may be more visible.

Care:
To maintain the bench's beauty and longevity, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the bench with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
- Oiling: To preserve the natural oiled teak finish and color, reapply a suitable teak oil at least once or twice a year, or as needed, especially after cleaning. Ensure the wood is clean and dry before applying oil.
- Protection: While teak is naturally weather-resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions (heavy rain, snow, intense sun) can affect its appearance. Consider using a protective cover or storing the bench in a sheltered area during extreme weather or off-seasons to prolong its life and maintain its finish.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or strong chemicals, as these can damage the wood and its finish.
