Outdoor furniture is an essential component of outdoor life for many homeowners who use their backyards for parties, barbecues, book reading, and general relaxation. When purchasing patio furniture at the right time can save significant sums; be mindful of seasonal trends or major shopping holidays that offer opportunities to score clearance deals on porch furniture sets.
Seasonal Trends
Seasonal trends play a key role in furniture pricing and can help you determine when is best time to purchase outdoor patio furniture. Fall and winter tend to see reduced demand for this kind of item, leading to deeper discounts such as traditional fire pit tables or wicker chairs.
Summer peak season for outdoor furniture sales can also be an excellent time to find deals, although you’ll face stiffer competition. By being patient and waiting until after Fourth of July or Labor Day sales end, however, you may be able to find what you want at an affordable price.
Midwinter is also an ideal time for buying patio furniture as online retailers will reduce prices to make room for spring collections and products. Brick-and-mortar stores will often reduce inventory in order to generate revenue and clear out warehouse space, making it easier for you to find quality pieces at discounted prices.
Floor Models
Floor models (also referred to as showroom models, demo units, display units or showpieces) are items on store showroom floors that customers are free to try out and take home with them. Floor models may remain on display for several weeks at a time while being handled by hundreds of customers each day; therefore they make ideal choices for shoppers looking for high-quality furniture at great prices.
But before purchasing furniture off of the showroom floor, there are a few key considerations you should keep in mind. When purchasing as-is or scratch-and-dent furniture, the biggest downside can be found with its lack of manufacturer warranty coverage, especially in relation to items like mattresses or outdoor patio sets with extended coverage warranties.
Common downsides of as-is furniture include limited return and delivery options, for instance at Woodstock Furniture & Mattress Outlet our scratch-and-dent and floor model pieces are sold without manufacturer warranty or Furniture Care Protection plans available to them – something many shoppers find disconcerting when making an informed purchasing decision about quality or how well it’ll fit into their home environment.
While furniture that is sold as-is has likely been handled extensively, that may not always be the case. A sofa displayed at a showroom might have been touched and used by hundreds of visitors each day; however, its likely that any abuse which would cause serious damage has passed unseen.
