Make sure that whatever patio set you buy is designed to be durable for outdoor use. Look for weather and rust-resistant frames, water-resistant cushions and fade-resistant fabrics. Teak furniture can run pricey, but if you're looking for a long-term investment, it ages beautifully and is easy to care for. It offers excellent weather resistance and the oils and resins in teak wood are natural bug repellents.

Opt for an outdoor patio furniture set that goes with the style of the rest of your home, whether that's modern, traditional or retro. Your outdoor space should be an extension of your home.
