When you're choosing the best patio furniture, you'll usually buy a set - but do you want a dining table plus chairs, comfy seats with a coffee table, or a long table with benches? You also need to think about material and style. Rattan is very popular at the moment, but if you prefer wood then make sure it's hardy enough to withstand the cold and rain if the patio furniture is left outside. You can find metal patio furniture - but make sure it's rust-proof - and if you want something fuss-free, then plastic is probably the best patio furniture material.
