Look around at your porch or deck to be able to determine what type of patio sets would best blend in. If you have a deck that is made of a very dark wood, or perhaps a porch that is inlaid with slate or another form of dark tile, you will definitely want to choose a light wood for your wicker. The contrast created will be beautiful.
The material for your dining set is important. One reason is your allotted budget. For example hardwoood is more expensive than metal, glass or plastic (which is the cheapest option of all). There is a more modern material that homeowners started to show some preference for, in the form of synthetic material mixes. Glass is a modern material but it is easily breakable. Wood is timeless and always in style, but a bit more expensive. If you are a lover of modern, contemporary and even futuristic styles, metal is the way to go.
A patio umbrella is as functional as it is attractive. Pair one with your patio dining set to protect your skin from the harsh UV rays, relentless sun, and rainy days. The two most basic forms of umbrella are tableside and freestanding. The freestanding umbrellas are generally taller stay upright by being attached to a heavy base. There are also table umbrellas which fit into a pre-made hole in the table's surface. Both kinds work equally well. From here, they are further categorized as being either manually operated or automatic. Manual umbrellas must be opened by hand, usually by a basic rope pulley mechanism. Once open, they normally secure with a peg and hole. An automatic umbrella opens with a crank or button, and there are also auto tilt umbrellas which operate the same way, but tilt further than straight up and down. Once open, these umbrellas can be adjusted to tilt in various directions so that the direction of the shade can be controlled as the sun crosses from east to west.
Regardless of which set you choose, cleaning and maintenance is a key part of keeping your furniture like new. It is always recommended that you attempt to remove stains as quickly as possible, regardless of whether or not the cushion material is washable. Another option is to select a set that does not use cushions, and is made entirely out of plastic, wood, or other material. In this case, it is still important to closely monitor the condition of the wood, plastic, or metal on your outdoor patio dining furniture sets.
