Summer is almost here and it is a great time to think about outdoor furniture. There are different types of furniture for varying budgets and styles.

• Plastic - it’s affordable and it’s relatively sturdy. And now it comes in all different styles and colors. Plus, you can buy it anywhere
• Metal and Mesh - a relatively new style is the metal/mesh chairs. The mesh makes them really comfortable and the metal is long lasting. Watch out for the mesh though, it can easily tear and falls apart if left out over the winter months
• Wicker - an old fashioned look that can wear well. Overtime individual parts do begin to break apart.
• Wrought Iron - always best if used with seat covers. Can leave marks on your clothes!
• Teak - teak outdoor furniture wears extremely well and looks like a million bucks. It will cost you though!
• Redwood - Best for benches and tables. Nice old fashioned picnic look.
