Imagine this: after weeks of rain, the sun is finally shining and you decide to invite friends over for a backyard gathering. As you go outside to prepare, you realize your outdoor furniture is in need of an upgrade. Jim Dove, principal designer at Dove Design Studio in Palm Beach, Florida, emphasizes the importance of investing in durable outdoor furniture that can withstand various weather conditions.
When shopping for outdoor furniture, consider materials that are resistant to sun damage and weathering. Dove recommends powder-coated aluminum for humid environments like Palm Beach. Plastic can also be a good option when paired with the right materials for an elevated look. Wood requires more maintenance and protection to prevent warping and color loss over time.
To ensure longevity, it’s essential to move outdoor furniture indoors and cover it when not in use. Keeping these factors in mind, Dove shares the best durable outdoor furniture sets to shop for different needs and spaces:
