How do you maintain an outdoor Balinese bed?

The aluminum frame is easily cleaned with water and mild soap. Cushions and mattresses, if they have removable covers, can be washed according to the manufacturer's instructions. The use of a protective cover is recommended during winter or periods of inactivity.

Which materials are most resistant to weathering?

Powder-coated aluminum is the most resistant to corrosion and moisture. For textiles, synthetic fabrics such as polyester or polypropylene with specific UV and water-resistant treatments are the most durable.

Is it necessary to anchor it to the ground?

It is generally not necessary. The weight and distribution of the structure itself provide sufficient stability. However, in areas exposed to very strong winds, the canopy should be folded away when not in use.

What's the difference between this and a double sun lounger?

A Balinese bed goes beyond the concept of a sun lounger. It offers a more spacious and enclosed area, almost like an outdoor room, thanks to elements such as the canopy and curtains. Its purpose is to create an immersive relaxation experience, not just a place to sunbathe.
