Outdoor furniture should be chosen for your climate as much as your style.

Aluminum

Light and rust resistant, but can move in strong wind.

Resin wicker

Easy to clean and weather resistant. Check that the frame underneath is also rated for outdoor use.

Teak

Durable hardwood that weathers to gray unless oiled.

Steel

Heavy and sturdy, usually powder-coated. Touch up scratches to prevent rust.
