Key Features
- 150cm round six‑seater: The Whirl table has a 150cm diameter and 74cm height, with 68cm of clearance under the table, giving enough space for up to six standard outdoor dining chairs.
- Natural finish teak construction: Both the frame and the slatted table top are made from natural finish teak, creating a unified timber expression and a warm, tactile dining surface.
- Slatted top without parasol hole: The table uses a slatted teak top design and is specified without a parasol hole, preserving a continuous circular surface and clean centre detail.
- Robust outdoor build: Weighing around 65kg with a cubic size of approximately 0.58m³, the Whirl table has a substantial feel suitable for permanent outdoor dining spaces.
- Protective cover available: A tailored protective cover is listed as an accessory for the Whirl Teak 150cm Round Dining Table, helping to reduce soiling and weathering when the table is not in use.
Materials & teak finish
Natural finish teak frame & top
Solid teak construction: The Whirl 150cm Round Dining Table is constructed from natural finish teak, with the frame and the circular slatted top both crafted from this close‑grained, oil‑rich hardwood.
Natural finish, no applied varnish: Gloster specifies that its teak is supplied in a natural finish, without additional varnishes or opaque coatings, allowing the timber to weather and breathe as intended outdoors.
Teak material properties
Weathering to silver‑grey: When exposed outdoors, teak gradually changes from golden brown to a light silvery grey over approximately 6–24 months as surface pigments fade, depending on local conditions.
Buffed or finely sanded surfaces: Some Gloster teak surfaces are simply sanded to a fine 220‑grit finish, while others are buffed to bring natural oils to the surface for a slightly richer sheen, which naturally softens as the furniture is cleaned and weathers.
Care & maintenance
Teak care
Regular cleaning and optional protection: Gloster recommends allowing teak to weather naturally and cleaning it once or twice a year using water with mild detergent or dedicated Teak & Upholstery Cleaner, with occasional light sanding if raised grain appears.
Sealers & protectors: Teak & Upholstery Protector can be applied to weathered teak to help repel moisture and reduce staining, while Gloster Teak Sealer, applied when the furniture is new, helps retain the teak’s natural brown tone; both can be topped up annually, or twice yearly on table tops.
Avoid oils and pressure washing: Because teak is naturally oily, wood oils and power washing are not recommended, as they can encourage mildew or roughen the surface and are difficult to reverse once applied.
Protective covers
Weathermax tailored covers: Gloster recommends using specially tailored Weathermax protective covers when the table is not in use; this performance polyester fabric balances water resistance with breathability to help reduce condensation and the risk of mould or mildew.
Dry furniture & regular checks: Furniture and cushions should be completely dry before covering, standing water should not be allowed to pool on the cover, and covers should be removed periodically so the furniture can be cleaned and inspected even when stored.
Warranty
Gloster states that its outdoor furniture is warranted to the original purchaser against defective materials and workmanship under intended reasonable use, starting from the date of delivery and subject to correct maintenance and cleaning in line with Gloster’s aftercare instructions. Normal weathering of teak (including end‑grain checking and colour change), general wear, and products or components over five years old are not treated as manufacturing defects, and claims are not accepted where items have been misused, modified, poorly maintained or returned without prior authorisation.
