Table & Chair FAQ

1. Where can I purchase a Lifetime table or Lifetime chair?
   Visit www.competitiveedgeproducts.com to purchase Lifetime products online.
2. What is the warranty on the Lifetime table?
   Warranty depends on the actual product, as well as the product line.
3. How do I file a warranty claim?
   All Warranty Claims must have 3 pictures of the damaged parts, a copy of a dated sales receipt, and a brief description of what has happened to the product. Report product defects in writing to: Lifetime Products, Inc., PO Box 160010, Clearfield, UT 84016-0010.
4. Where is the model number that I need to register my product?
   The model number is often stated on the product label near the UPC. The UPC code is 12 digits long; the four numbers given as the eighth to eleventh digits are the model number.
5. What is polyethylene and why is it better than wood?
   Polyethylene is a plastic that is virtually indestructible. It resists chipping, cracking, or peeling, unlike particleboard laminates. It is more durable, easier to clean, lightweight, and ideal for indoor and outdoor use.
6. What makes the steel legs weather-resistant?
   The manufacturer uses a powder coating process that coats bare metal with electro-statically charged powder, which is then baked at a high temperature. Lifetime also adds a hammer-tone finish, which is a textured coating resistant to scratches.
7. What is BIFMA and why is it important?
   BIFMA stands for Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturing Association. BIFMA sets industry standards for commercial-grade furniture, and Lifetime tables meet these standards.
8. How much weight can it hold?
   These products meet BIFMA standards for strength and durability, ensuring they support heavy loads in commercial and residential settings.
9. Will it fade outdoors?
   Products left in the sun for extended periods may eventually show wear; however, UV inhibitors help maintain the integrity of the polyethylene and provide long-lasting color.
10. Will it stain?
    The non-porous surface resists tough stains, including red punch, permanent marker, mustard, and motor oil.
11. How do I clean it?
    Most messes can be cleared with a damp cloth and mild dish soap. For stubborn dirt, a mild abrasive cleaner and a soft-bristle brush will restore the surface.
