Outdoor & Garden Sofa Sets

1. What materials are best for a garden sofa set?

The choice of material for a garden sofa set depends on durability, maintenance, and aesthetics:

• Wooden Garden Sofa Set: Offers a natural and timeless appeal. Hardwoods like teak and acacia are durable but require regular treatment to maintain their appearance and protect against weathering.
• Rattan: A stylish and versatile option. Natural rattan provides a classic look but is less weather-resistant, while synthetic rattan is UV-resistant, waterproof, and low-maintenance.
• Metal: Aluminium is lightweight, rust-resistant, and ideal for all-weather use. Steel is sturdier but may require anti-rust treatment for longevity.
• Plastic: Lightweight, affordable, and easy to clean, though it may not have the same premium aesthetic as other materials.

2. How to choose the right size and style for a garden sofa set?

Selecting the perfect garden sofa set involves considering space, functionality, and design:

• Space Measurement: Ensure the garden sofa set fits comfortably without overcrowding the area. Consider pathways and movement around the seating.
• Functionality: Whether the space is used for relaxation, entertaining guests, or outdoor dining, the layout and type of garden sofa set should match the intended use.
• Style & Aesthetic: Choose a garden sofa set that complements the outdoor space: modern aluminium frames for a contemporary look, wooden for a rustic feel, or rattan for a classic touch.
• Seating Capacity: Depending on the household size or number of guests typically entertained, options range from compact two-seaters to large corner or modular sets for flexibility.
