As I was lounging on the deck chairs at the beginning of summer I realized they didn’t look really fresh anymore. Especially not the under side.
I mean, yuck! I’ve had these for a few years and have hosed them off in the past but haven’t ever deep cleaned them.
I figured I’d try throwing the plastic mesh seats in the laundry machine but when they came out almost no different (left side) I decided elbow grease was needed. Turned out it was easy. Soapy sudsy warm water with dish washing detergent and a brush easily removed the dirt. Check out the right side!
Still need to get new elastics for the backs as they’re sagging a bit but at least they’re super clean. As good as new!
What lovely results.

Clean and white--makes me smile. Maybe you already answered, but where did you get those gorgeous square flowerpots?

Looked att some of your old post. I like that little white (of course) alarmclock on your bedside table ( June 11. 2012). I´ve been looking all over for something similar, but haven´t found one yet. May I ask where you got it?
For the time beeing I use my mobil phone, and I find that so annoying setting the alarm every night.
Good work on that sunbed!
Lots og love from Göteborg

Don't you love when some good old fashioned elbow grease pays off? Looks like new!

I got that clock from a local watch store but Muji sells (or at least used to sell) a nicer version of it,
