Patio Sets - Don't Be Cheap

You can buy some very cheap plastic garden furniture but you really have to think if it is worth the money.

Unless you are only thinking about having something, anything to sit on in your garden and you have a very limited budget I would rather wait. Sit on a picnic rug and cushions on the lawn until you can afford to pay for a quality patio set.

You see cheap patio furniture is just not going to enhance your garden or patio and it certainly won't be comfortable unless you pad it out with the thickest patio cushions (and that is defeating the object of saving money as these don't come cheap).

You don't need to pay an arm and a leg for your furniture to get something with style but you do need at least a few hundred dollars. High prices are not necessarily the highest quality however - see this consumer article on comparing prices on patio sets so you do need to shop around.

If you can't afford a full set at the moment look at buying just one or two pieces in a classic material such as teak so that you can add to your patio furniture collection each year.
