a true to its life and durability outdoor furniture in windy, wet and sunny locations - 'real teak furniture is the best' - i have a dining set outdoors in the last 10 years and just needed to polish it during Spring/Summer to maintain its shiny looks after all these years (again, there are real teak furniture polisher),you just have to get cushions to sit on and you can put these away in the garage/closets during Winter; avoid the synthetic teak ones or fake teaks - there's a lot of teak-look-a-like in the market that will rot in a short time.

We've just bought some, off Etsy, very happy with it.
Our criteria were rather different from those above. Forget elegance and glass top tables. Will it blow away in a gale, will it last a decent number of years without rotting, rusting, will it be comfortable, will it suit the setting and can we afford it on our budget?
Ours is solid wood, well made, can seat 6 round a generous table, can be oiled annually and cost just £400. It looks completely at home on our terrace and the dunnocks like it as they feel safe underneath the table. Better than any forgery

Yes, though we paid a bit extra to have 4 chairs rather than the 2 benches as it gave us more manoeuvrability. We need to be able to fit in daughter's friends and to squeeze in an extra seat if need be. I hate all those designer 'garden rooms' in gardens the size of a pocket handkerchief (does anyone have those any more?) but it will give more space for entertainment than our small dining room would permit. Boozy evenings round the firepit for her to look forward to
It is nicely finished with bevelled edges rather than just square cut timber and the curved ends on the table give a fraction more space. It was delivered promptly too, though it's a good job I'm an early riser as they came at 6.30 in the morning!
