The Official (Mostly Affordable) EHD 2025 Outdoor Furniture Roundup

While it’s not “warm” in most places, yet (in the US at least), it is on its way, meaning our outdoor spaces are going to be calling our names sooner than we think. And if you are someone who needs either a new piece of furniture or an entire set, this post is here to help. Now, I say this anytime I write about outdoor furniture…it’s not cheap stuff. So while it’s always a bit shocking, outdoor furniture does have to hold up to the elements (ideally), making the price tags a little more justified (?). But remember that as much as we wish outdoor furniture was a “set it and forget it” category, you do have to protect those cushions, cover that furniture, etc, to keep things nice season after season. I really did my best finding pieces that looked great and that, based on the market, were on the affordable side, which is, as always, relative. This post was also really hard to put together this year because there were SO many great and beautiful options, but also lots of them were very pricey. I did sprinkle in some of the higher priced pieces because I simply couldn’t help myself. Y’all at least needed to see them:) Let’s jump right in, shall we?

1. Laholm Outdoor Sofa | 2. San Marcos All Weather Wicker Deep Seat Outdoor Sofa | 3. Leni Outdoor Sofa | 4. Matilda Acacia Outdoor Patio Sofa | 5. Isla Indoor / Outdoor Sofa | 6. Melrose Teak Outdoor Patio Sofa

Seating is such an important part of relaxing in an outdoor area, and if you have the space for a sofa these six are pretty great options. I think that #4 is SUCH a great find for that price and while cream cushions may make some people nervous, you can buy a cover for $65. Done! #3 and #5 are the high rollers of the group but my oh my are they pretty beautiful. I love that you can see the straps on the front of #5. But if you have a more mid-range budget (and light cushions aren’t your preference) #1 and #6 are really amazing choices.

1. Capra Outdoor Sectional | 2. Clearwater Outdoor Patio Teak Wood 6-Piece Sectional Sofa | 3. Lubek Outdoor Low Right Sectional | 4. REVSKÄR Set | 5. Haven 4-Piece Teak Outdoor Sectional with Sunbrella | 6. Cana 3-Piece Outdoor Patio Sectional Sofa

But maybe you need (or want) a sectional! We have used #3 in two projects (Bowser’s and the River House) and everyone loves them. I got the sofa version of #5 and it was real simple to put together myself, and I love love the cushion color so much. Perfect for someone who doesn’t want a really light cushion color but also doesn’t want to go too dark. Big fan if you have the budget. However, wanting a sectional doesn’t mean you need a huge space, #4 and # are ideal for a small outdoor area.

1. Henryville Round Teak Outdoor Coffee Table | 2. Pebble Indoor/Outdoor Oval Coffee Table | 3. Pertti Rectangular Steel Outdoor Coffee Table | 4. Peggy Outdoor Oval Coffee Table | 5. Orb Coffee Table | 6. Fayette Round Coffee Table

If you have (or are getting) a sofa or sectional, you’ll likely need a coffee table, right? Where else shall you put your charcuterie board and fine wine? Or you know, a bowl of chips and some ice cold White Claws:) Both pairing sounds pretty dreamy to me. But back to coffee tables! I think this is a perfect place to have a little style fun that feels less like a big risk. All six of these have a good amount of personality, but all say something different stylistically. The traditional modern twists of #3 and #4 are so good (FYI #3 is a small one so great for a small space or you could double up!). I was shocked and delighted by the price of #6. It’s so pretty and claims excellent durability. And if you have the budget, #5 is insanely cool and could easily be an indoor coffee table too. You can’t go wrong with this group.

1. Costa Black Metal Outdoor Sun Lounger | 2. Saeon Outdoor Acacia Chaise Lounge Set (Set of 2) | 3. Monterey Outdoor Teak Chaise Lounge | 4. Laholm Outdoor Chaise Lounge | 5. Alvah Outdoor Eucalyptus Chaise Lounge | 6. Everlee Outdoor Powder Coated Aluminum Chaise Lounge Set (Set of 2)

If you have the space, an outdoor chaise lounge is THE BEST. You will not regret it. Even on my weird super skinny balcony, you bet I found a chaise lounge that fit. It’s a bed for the outside, what’s not to love? I’m pretty partial to the adjustable back so that’s what all of these have (mine doesn’t and I really wish it did). I want lounge height options (I’m an options gal, can you tell?). Of course, I’m drooling over #1 and #3 for different reasons but for the price and flair, #5 is hard to beat. The shape of #6 is so cool and #4 is from Article so it’s both beautiful and undoubtedly comfortable (I have yet to experience anything from Article that has been so comfy to sit on and it’s been a lot of pieces).

1. Kaetlin Acacia Outdoor Lounge Chair (Set of 2) | 2. Ratcliff All-Weather HDPE Adirondack Chair (Set of 2) | 3. Aeri Outdoor Lounge Chair | 4. Palissade Cord Lounge Chair | 5. Damarie 2 Person Chair | 6. Chrystan Metal Outdoor Lounge Chair

Of course we can’t forget a great lounge chair. Perfect for a conversation area, around a fire pit, etc. #1, #3, and #6 are huge bangs for your buck and are all different styles so there’s something for everyone! I have sat and didn’t want to get up from #3 (actually got to watch a movie sitting in it). I love the color and modern curvy shape of #4 (it also comes in a deep red). And who doesn’t love a good egg chair (especially if it fits two)?

1. Menades Cantilever Outdoor Umbrella | 2. Easy Open Ivory Outdoor Cantilever Umbrella | 3. Square Canvas White Sand Sunbrella® Cantilever Outdoor Patio Umbrella

Yesterday, as I was prepping this post, I had a conversation with my best friend about outdoor umbrellas. The house she and her husband bought came with one, which was of course nice, but stylistically isn’t what she ultimately wants. And like any normal afternoon conversation amongst best friends, I asked her what she wanted out of an outdoor umbrella/what did and didn’t work about the one they have? She loves that it’s a cantilever since her sweet but active little boy is constantly moving around the backyard playing. Plus, this little munchkin (along with this mother) has sensitive pale skin. So having an umbrella that can easily move with the sun is key. What she hates about her current one is the big chunky plastic base, which I very much get and would feel the same. Oh, and she doesn’t want to spend a million dollars…which I also very much get. So I tried to find a few options that fit the bill (mostly). #1 is awesome because of the wheel on the base and I love the wood accent. The price is right with #2 and while it’s harder to move, that base is way less intense than the average affordable option. Then #3, the most expensive, is honestly just so pretty. I love the “wood” stand and base so much. I know they are all white canopies but #2 has some darker shades if that’s your preference!

1. Natalie Sunbrella® Outdoor Umbrella | 2. Steel and Aluminum Market Crank and Tilt Outdoor Patio Umbrella | 3. Business & Pleasure Co. Market Umbrella

For those of you who prefer or only need a market style umbrella, I’ve got you too. Now, #1 and #2 do tilt so they do have a little more functionality. Both have those classic stripes we love and those prices are pretty great! Of course you do need to buy a stand but I’ve got you covered in the next section. Then while pricey, #3 is pretty special. The trim is actually a dark blue but comes in other, brighter, colorways. Honestly, Business & Pleasure has a ton of really fun and colorful options if that’s more your style.

1. Corbyn Umbrella Table | 2. The Felix Wicker Outdoor Umbrella Side Table | 3. Round Black Concrete Patio Umbrella Stand | 4. Business & Pleasure Co. Clamshell Base | 5. Wheeled Umbrella Base | 6. Concrete Free Standing Umbrella Base

Ah yes, the necessary stands. You can go super simple with ones like #3 and #5 (this one has wheels:)) or have one that’s got a little more something happening like #4 and #6. But if you aren’t using it in the middle of your dining table, I love these umbrella side tables like #1 and #2. #2 is brand new and part of the incredible new collection that Jake Arnold just did with Crate and Barrel. Go check it out!

1. The Townsend Wood and Stone Outdoor Dining Table | 2. Spector Extendable Rectangular Outdoor Dining Table | 3. Alyisa Extendable Rectangular Eucalyptus Outdoor Dining Table | 4. NÄMMARÖ | 5. Vikesha Rectangular Outdoor Dining Table | 6. Savio Oval Light Brown Eucalyptus Outdoor Dining Table

Speaking of Jake Arnold’s new collection, when I saw that dining table (#1) my jaw dropped TO THE FLOOR. Please, someone get it (if you need a table) and invite me over. I promise I’ll be a delight and if all else fails I’ll bring a great bottle of wine. But a $4,000 is not a super doable purchase for a lot of us, which is why there are five other great options:) If you want to go simple but classic, #3 and #4 are perfect. #3 can seat up to 10 people when fully extended! #2 is also extendable and real chic.

1. Sarek Outdoor Dining Table | 2. Ellie Bistro Table | 3. Brogel Bistro Round Steel Dining Table | 4. Dairon Round Iron Outdoor Bistro Table | 5. Colima Round Black Metal Outdoor Bistro Table | 6. Sydney Outdoor Bistro Table

I had to make sure I looked out for the small space dwellers like myself and find some pretty bistro tables. #5 is a real beaut and right up my alley but less affordable. #1 and #6 are awesome modern options that also feel special:) #4 is pretty small which is great if you only need something little but pretty (and under $100?!).

1. Farrah Outdoor Stacking Dining Side Chair (Set of 2) | 2. Outdoor Dining Side Chair (Set of 2) | 3. Sydney Outdoor Stacking Dining Chair (Set of 2) | 4. Melrose Teak Outdoor Dining Side Chair with Cushion (Set of 2) | 5.
Sierra Outdoor Dining Chair Set (Set of 6) | 6. Oceana Outdoor Stacking Dining Chair (Set of 2)

And finally we’ve come to the end, the dining chairs. I’ll never not love the shape of #2, and for that price, I would be so tempted if I needed a set. For an ever better price tag, #1 is a total classic and comes in other colors! And if you like a little color, I really love #6. It’s such a cool chair. But I get if you want to keep things neutral, like #3 and #4, they are happy and bright and will go with anything. If you have a bigger table and love a cushion, #5 has a ton of visual texture that I love. It’s a set of 6, y’all!

Ok, this is where I leave and hope this post was helpful if you are in need of some new pieces. If anyone has any other recs, put them in the comments!

Love you, mean it.
