OK looking for inspiration.
SWMBO bought new garden furniture. I got a big rectangular cover to go over it.
However of course when it rains this just forms puddles in the dips of the cover.
I need an inspired idea that needs to be very simple but to put something under the cover to form a slope from one end to the other for run off.
But this simple solution needs to be simple enough that my missus will accept when she decides to take the cover off on the rare sunny days we get up here! (Bang goes my idea of building a wooden frame)
Here’s the furniture (cushions are removed)

Ours sits out all year cushionless with no cover and no apparent damage but it’s coated metal framed not the rattan effect. Could you leave yours uncovered in summer and only cover for the harsher months? Alternatively could you stack the table and stools on top of the seating to make a more boxy shape and put the cover over the whole lot without big dips.

Best to bring garden furniture under cover in winter, in garage for example. It will deteriorate rapidly if lef outside even if it has a cover.

CGN, not an option sadly.

Mmm stools on top of seat. Might be onto something.
I had actually contemplated blowing up the wee paddling pool we have got my granddaughter and jamming it under it.
Will have a look at the stools idea. When it stops raining….

I put bricks under two of the legs of my table to tilt it and covered it. the chairs stacked and another cover on them. The chairs rusted!
