What is the sectional made of, wicker, aluminum, etc? Are their cushions, if so are they Sunbrella fabric? Are the cushions thick or thin? Is their a warranty on said sectional? More on reddit.com

The IKEA APPLARO outdoor line is pretty great. You can buy as many sections as you want to create a custom sectional outdoor sofa. It’s made from real wood, so it needs some care and to be covered for bad weather (they sell a cover for $60 for it too) but wood is also easy to refresh if it gets weathered (sand it, re-stain with an $8 jar of stain, and seal). The cushions also have removable covers that are washable. They don’t tie to the sofa so I ended up buying heavy-duty self-adhesive Velcro and attaching a small piece to the bottom of each seat cushion and the other side to the wooden seat to keep them from sliding around when sitting. Yes it’s annoying to assemble but it’s very affordable for the size and customizable configurations, and there are other outdoor pieces in the line that match (table, bench, etc.) More on reddit.com
