When buying outdoor dining furniture sets, there is definitely a hodgepodge of various styles, sizes and accessories that will make anyone dizzy. We created this "almost" complete buying guide to help break down some of the questions that must be asked and different options to help you make the best choice for outdoor furniture.
First, you will want to consider the following questions:
How many people usually use the suit?
How big is the outdoor space?
How often do you entertain?
Who will use the furniture (children, adults, elderly)?
Determine the fixed size. Once you decide how many people usually use the suit, you can decide how big the suit you need. Whether it is a comfortable two-piece suit for you and your partner, a nine-piece suit for a large family or anything in between, as long as it fits your terrace, we can help you achieve it. Shape is also an important factor. A square or rectangular table will provide a more modern straight appearance, while a round table will be more free and rustic. You should also consider round tables to make it easier to add extra chairs.
Choose your height. Dining height, counter height and bar height all provide unique benefits and visual appeal.
The dining height can be dressed up for a formal dinner or for an outdoor leisure night. Compared with the higher bar height, it is easier to get in and out, and it is comfortable to sit for long periods of time.
The counter height is an intermediate option, and if people are standing around looking for a place to put their drinks, some extra height can be provided. It is also the easiest to get in and out, because it does not need to sit down or walk up.
The height of the bar provides a more casual look, which is perfect for leaning and standing. Although it creates a higher viewing platform, it may be difficult for children and the elderly to climb.
Choose a seat option. Although a standard dining chair is great, you also need to consider adding armrests, or even a swivel chair. The armrests not only increase comfort, but also make getting in and out of the chair easier. The swivel chair can not only change the field of view, but also can enter and exit without moving the chair. The swivel chair is especially useful if you choose a polyethylene suit due to the weight of the chair. Other options include stools with higher table heights or benches. These stools create a bar-like feel, which is a great way to increase seating space, especially for small children.
Choose your material and color. Our most popular tableware is made of HDPE recycled plastic and has many advantages. It is very heavy to prevent it from being blown away by the wind, it can stay outside all year round, and it is always colored by minimizing scratches and fading. Others prefer teak, which gives a more natural feel. Teak is a very durable and strong wood that can adjust its temperature naturally. Our third most popular suit is the rattan, which is not only lightweight, but also creates a beach-like feel. Choose your color and you are one step closer to finishing your new tableware!

Do I want an umbrella? Whether it is a large umbrella extending on the terrace or a standard umbrella on the table, the umbrella can provide a cool area in hot weather and provide protection when it rains. An umbrella is also a great way to bring some bright accent colors and make your set popular!
Should I add a carpet? Although it may not actually be the best choice around swimming pools or muddy areas, carpets can bring color and comfort. This is also a good way to make outdoor areas comfortable. If you decide to use a carpet, you need to make sure it is at least two feet longer than your table so that the entire set remains on the carpet.
Add your finishing touches. To take your terrace setting to a new level, consider adding outdoor cushions for comfort and style, centerpieces with fresh cut flowers, tablecloths, fire protection devices, and some stylish napkins or napkins. Make important statements in small details to take your dining environment to the next level.
You may be wondering why this guide is "incomplete". Although we have provided a lot of information, it is not complete because it misses an important thing-you. It lacks your opinion, your style and your color preference. In the end, you are the decision maker, and we are just here to help you!
