How to find the perfect patio set for your outdoor space

Creating a beautiful and inviting outdoor space starts with finding the perfect patio set. Whether you're looking to dine al fresco or relax in the sun, selecting the right furniture is essential. To help you make the best choice, we've put together some tips and a comprehensive buying guide. Let's dive in:

1. Consider the patio set’s design

The design of your patio set should match the preferred vibe of your outdoor space. Whether you're going for a modern, traditional, exotic, colourful or neutral look, choose furniture that complements your style and the atmosphere you are aiming for. You can also consider whether or not you want to match the design with how you have styled your home inside. That way, you can create a nice common thread and elegantly fuse your indoor and outdoor living spaces together.

2. Size matters

Before purchasing a patio set, consider the number of seating options you need and the space available in your outdoor area. Measure the area to ensure that the furniture fits comfortably without overcrowding the space.

3. An outdoor furniture set for dining or relaxing?

Are you planning to use your patio set for dining or relaxing? This will help you decide whether to opt for a dining set with a table and chairs or a lounge set with comfortable seating options.

4. The material has both a visual and practical impact

The material of your patio set plays a crucial role in both aesthetics and practicality. Here are some popular options you can choose between among our selection:

• Wood: A classic choice that adds warmth and natural beauty to your outdoor space. It requires regular maintenance to keep it looking its best.

• Acacia wood: Known for its durability and resistance to weather elements, acacia wood is a great option for outdoor furniture. It has a beautiful grain pattern and can last for years with proper care.

• Bamboo: If you're looking for a rather eco-friendly and lightweight option, bamboo is a fantastic choice. It's easy to maintain and adds a tropical touch to your patio.

• Aluminium: A lightweight and rust-resistant material that is perfect for outdoor furniture. It's easy to clean and can withstand various weather conditions.

• Plastic: Affordable and low-maintenance, plastic patio sets are a popular choice. They come in a variety of colours and designs, making it easy to find one that suits your style.

• Glass: Glass-top tables add a touch of elegance to your outdoor space. However, they require regular cleaning to keep them looking their best.

• Ceramic: A durable and stylish option, ceramic patio sets are resistant to weather and stains. They are available in various designs and colours to suit your taste.

• Poly rattan: This synthetic material mimics the look of natural rattan but is more durable and weather-resistant. It's a great option for those seeking a contemporary and stylish patio set.

• Polypropylene: Known for its durability and affordability, polypropylene patio sets are resistant to fading and easy to clean. They are available in a wide range of colours and designs.

Consider the benefits and relevant considerations for each material alternative when making your decision.

By following these tips and accounting for all relevant factors, you'll be well on your way to finding the perfect patio set for your outdoor oasis. Happy shopping.

How to keep your outdoor furniture set looking sharp

To make sure your outdoor furniture set stays in tip-top shape, it's important to clean and maintain it regularly. Different materials and treatments require different care, so here are some tips to keep your patio furniture looking nice:

• Regular cleaning - The most basic care advice for outdoor furniture is cleaning with a light detergent and water on a regular basis. This will not only help to get rid of stains and dirt but also mould that may damage the furniture.

• Apply paste wax to metal furniture - If you have garden furniture sets made from metal, applying a paste of wax to it will add a layer of protection against harsh weather conditions. Just like you use sunscreen to protect your skin against the sun, metal furniture could benefit from getting wax applied to it. If you see signs of corrosion or rust on your metal furniture, remove the rust and apply a primer first and then a coat of paint.

• Keep your outdoor furniture sets in the shade - Your outdoor furniture set will benefit from sun protection. So, think about putting it under a patio umbrella or a permanent shade structure. Doing so will extend the life of your furniture by reducing the risk of sun, rain or wind damage.

• Use covers - Covers protect your garden furniture sets from harsh weather conditions like UV, rain, sun, wind and others. When choosing covers for your furniture, ensure it fits comfortably over each piece. Ensure you take the measurements so that the cover isn’t too loose or tight.

By following these tips and taking proper care of your outdoor furniture, you can ensure that it stays looking sharp for years to come. So get out there and enjoy your beautiful patio oasis.
