You will find many options when searching for patio furniture. You can find patio furniture made from aluminum, wicker, wrought iron, and wood, to name a few. Each one has its advantages and disadvantages and each fulfills a slightly different need. The important thing, of course, is to know which material is best for your specific needs.
Aluminum is an incredibly strong, durable and rust-free material. When placed outside, aluminum patio furniture rapidly creates a slim,small layer of oxide around the top layer. This helps the material resist corrosion, ensuring that your aluminum patio furniture will not disintegrate over time, even when exposed to the worst weather. Aluminum also tends to be quite lightweight, allowing you to move it about the patio or garden as needed. The aluminum sling line all come with a mesh seat, making it a great choice around the pool. There is no need to dry off before sitting down, or to worry about chipping paint or creating rust with the water.
Wrought iron patio furniture has many properties similar to aluminum, but is generally heavier and needs slightly more maintenance. While aluminum creates its own natural layer of oxide, wrought iron requires washing and waxing a few times a year. If you live somewhere with extreme weather conditions, wrought iron furniture can be an advantage, as its weight allows you to leave it in place and guarantees that it won't get tossed around by the wind or damaged from the rain. Wrought iron items are often large, necessitating a certain amount of space to present them correctly. Wrought iron creates an elegant, stately look and fits well in a yard with dressy appeal.
For a completely different look and feel, wicker patio furniture is a great choice. Wicker has been the material of choice for furniture for thousands of years due to its durability and resilience to various weather conditions. While it's very durable, wicker is also light. This makes it the perfect furniture for a portable patio furniture solution. Wicker is often quite inexpensive and creates a light, airy look and feel.
For a much heavier look, wood patio furniture is a beautiful choice for blending your furniture into the natural surroundings. It is a great material for outdoor picnic and barbeque tables, swings and lounge chairs. Cedar wood or teak are naturally resistant to insect and weather damage and is a heavy, durable material. It has a much more rustic feel than other materials, and is, therefore, more appropriate for someone looking for a more natural ambiance. As the owner of wood furniture, you do have to be comfortable with change and natural imperfections. The wood will change color, slightly, overtime and will come with certain natural imperfections. In addition, you can change the look of wood patio furniture by painting it or you can leave it in its natural shade to enjoy its rustic feel.
