From dining to reclining, great outdoor patio furniture can transform your backyard into an inviting space. Choose from comfortable chairs and sofas made of resilient materials like acacia wood and weathered aluminum for long-term durability.
Choose between classic furniture styles with curved lines or modern pieces featuring sleek lines and minimalist designs, as well as budget-friendly pieces crafted from metal, plastic or all-weather wicker.
1. Outer’s Brown Wicker Outdoor Sofa with Armless Chairs
Outer’s modular outdoor furniture set has likely caught your eye across social media and ads–from targeted Facebook posts to #sponcon on Instagram–for good reason: their wicker sofas and chairs offer comfortable seating solutions made sustainably.
After testing this brown wicker outdoor couch with armless chairs for two months through thunderstorms, humidity, and tropical storms – and braving summer thunderstorms as well – I can confirm it’s the real deal. The wicker frame is sturdy and durable while its seat cushions boast memory foam and high-resilience foam for optimal support and are machine-washable – meaning spilled cocktails or drool won’t become an expensive replacement hassle! Plus it comes complete with custom covers which can easily be machine-washed for easy cleanup after spilled cocktails or drool mess!
Best part? OuterShell by this brand provides cushion protection from rain, dirt and bird droppings while double as an easy carry case for storage purposes. Zip it onto the back of each cushion to cover them easily for protection as well as double up as storage capacity!
Outer’s modular sofa comes in easy-to-manage boxes and requires light assembly, though you have the option of upgrading to “white glove” delivery for an added fee. Furthermore, you can purchase chair and table separately if you’d rather fill your patio entirely with Outer pieces; and their return policy is one of the best available in this industry if any discrepancies arise in terms of color or fabric choice.
2. East Oak’s Outdoor Chaise Lounge
Nothing beats sitting out on your patio, breathing in fresh air and enjoying family or friend company while unwinding or laughing with them. Finding durable furniture for your oasis is crucial if you want it to remain looking its best year after season; depending on its maintenance needs, materials used and climate setting your backyard furniture should remain functional for many years to come.
For those who appreciate relaxing, this East Oak outdoor chaise lounge provides the ideal spot to do just that. Crafted with powder-coated aluminum and iron frames that resist rust, its textilene upholstery provides quick-drying fabrics that also block UV radiation – the East Oak chaise is the ultimate place for restful lounging or hosting happy hours.
Metal outdoor patio furniture tends to last the longest but can also be heavy. If that’s alright with you, these Outer wrought iron rocking chairs may be just what your backyard needs – easy assembly with Velcro attachment for cushions securely fastened in place and handles that make transport simple!
3. Neighbor’s Six-Piece Sectional Sofa
Rooms To Go offers an outdoor wicker sectional sofa designed for contemporary lifestyles at multiple lengths to suit any landscape, along with protective covers to shield it from inclement weather conditions. Wicker rattan style furniture recalls classic pieces owned by your grandparents; however, this modern take looks much cooler and features solution-dyed Sunbrella cushions for ultimate comfort. A matching lounge chair, chaise and ottoman can also be found. RH Outdoor’s Walker Teak Sofa can easily complement traditional or modern minimal styles with its stylishly curved silhouette and dark powder-coated aluminum frame. At only 68″, it easily seats three comfortably while coming complete with matching ottoman, lounge chair and coffee table.
4. Serena & Lily’s Teak Sling Chair
Serena & Lily offers this classic teak sling chair as an easygoing seating solution, complete with stylish fabrics to withstand the elements and develop a silvery-gray patina over time, adding rustic charm.
If your outdoor space is larger, considering an inviting sectional sofa like this one from Neighbor may be beneficial in accommodating multiple people during outdoor gatherings or just lounging around. Made of weatherproof materials and available in various color choices to fit in with any patio decor scheme.
When purchasing wooden furniture, look for hardy species like acacia, cypress, bamboo and redwood which can withstand the elements. To preserve its appearance, regularly treat these species with water repellent and oil to protect their appearance.
Are You Shopping Patio Furniture Sales This Winter? Another way to save on patio furniture is by shopping sales during fall and winter when retailers are less busy, says Forest. By patiently waiting a few months, high-end patio furniture may become available at fraction of its retail cost if available at sale time.
If you’re shopping on a budget, check out stores like Wayfair (for contemporary and modern designs) or AllModern (which features affordable styles inspired by Bauhaus and other mid-century designers) as they offer deals. Other stores offering affordable styles can include Target which carries outdoor furniture and decor as well as Birch Lane with natural-wood pieces.
