Patio and Garden Furniture

Tip! While new, teak patio furniture is available in different colors from light to dark brown with the passage of time, it transforms into a light silver gray. The very first appearance of this first gray lining comes into notice after using it for three or four months.

Patio and garden furniture comes in a range of designs, and also a range of prices. Confused about what to get? Read on to find out what your few hundred dollars can get you.

If you just need a simple bistro table and two chairs, one hundred dollars may be enough. Cheap but very durable sets like these are usually made of quality cast aluminum, and are typically enforced with rust-resistant coating. You can either buy them assembled, or assemble them yourself. Assembly will take about half an hour, and can be fun of you are good with your hands.

Sets like these can go for $150 during peak seasons (spring and summer), so be sure to order during off-season months. You can even get this for less than a hundred dollars, if you are lucky.

Tip! Some patio benches are beautiful and perfect for seating guests comfortably. Such benches make great patio furniture, especially when used with a table for grilling out and eating on the porch etc.

If you have a bigger budget and a bigger space, then invest in patio sets that are made of stylish all-weather woven wicker resin and heavy-duty steel frame with protective finish. Most of the sets in this price range include two lounge chairs (typically cushioned), a love seat, and a coffee table (usually tempered glass-top that is resistant to scratches). The cushion is usually covered with easy-care fabric, and is easily replaceable.

Add a few more hundreds of dollars and you can buy patio sets complete with an umbrella and an umbrella base. Most sets in this price range are made of heavy-duty steel frame construction (usually coated with protective power finish) and have at least six sling-swiveling bar stools and a fashionable glass-top table. The chairs usually come with easy-care cushions and fabric covers, though some furniture stores sell these separately. Sets like these are built for serious entertaining.
