Kinda a gardening question, kinda furniture, so I'm asking in both threads.
Anyone have recommendations for some good quality outdoor furniture for eating meals on our deck in summer, for 6-8 people? Ideally I'd like wood because I think it looks nicer in a garden than anything artificial, but I could be swayed for the right product.
We bought a set a few years back that looked really nice. Table, 2 benches and 2 stools for £1,500. Wooden tops, and powder coated metal legs. However, the quality was atrocious, and the coating protecting the wood that we'd been assured was really rugged and wouldn't need any maintenance any time soon started peeling extremely quickly. We've had 3 replacement sets under warranty now and they've all done the same thing. During my latest attempt to get another warranty replacement we've learned the manufacturer has discontinued the model due to the issues I've faced, and so I'll be given a refund. Hence me now looking for something completely different.
I don't have a set budget, and realise I'll probably have to spend a lot to get something that will last well. I'd rather that than replacing every couple of years, though.
