Now Is the Best Time to Buy Amazon Patio Furniture—and We Found 20 Sets to Help You While Away the Rest of Summer

• Pros: weatherproof, sturdy steel frame
• Cons: difficult to put together
• Set size: four-piece
• Material: polyrattan, steel

This little beauty is made of a weatherproof polyethylene rattan with a steel frame, giving it both strength and durability to last beyond the season. We love that it comes with four pieces, including a tea table, two cushioned chairs and one cushioned double chair for less than $200, making it a budget-friendly option for a patio (or even a porch or apartment balcony). The layout also makes the pieces easy to separate if you want to set it up in two smaller areas for conversation.

• Pros: all-weather wicker, anti-rust steel frame, fire pit and furniture covers included
• Cons: expensive, need to purchase propane tank separately
• Set Size: five-piece
• Material: wicker, steel

No time to make an actual fire pit? This five-piece wicker set has you covered. We chose it specifically because it comes with its own lava rock fire pit fueled by propane, so you and your house guests can stay nice and cozy well into fall (especially once you realize how easy it is to turn on and off the electric ignitor). You'll also get a three-seater sofa, two chairs and a loveseat, all of which feature weatherproofing and anti-rust frames, and the furniture covers for each piece are also included.

• Pros: great for smaller patios, easy to put together, chairs fold up for storage
• Cons: prone to rust, not as sturdy as some other options
• Set Size: three-piece
• Material: polyester, glass, steel

Who says you can't have a full patio setup in a small space? We think this option will be perfect for those with limited outdoor real estate because its two simple chairs fold up easily when they're not in use. At 28 inches tall, the small textured glass table is also a great height for enjoying a morning coffee solo or a meal with a partner in the sunshine. The steel frames of these pieces come powder-coated to make them more resistant to wear and tear and the chairs have a breathable, water-repellent polyester mesh fabric.

• Pros: multiple waterproof wrap covers, comes with a fire pit, fastening strips on covers
• Cons: sits sit low to the ground, arrives in multiple boxes
• Set Size: eight-piece
• Material: polyrattan

With a total of eight modular pieces, we like the freedom this one allows for, since the whole collection can be arranged however you see fit. The cushions connect to the polyrattan seats via fastening strips to prevent sliding, and they're made with water-resistant fabric that's meant to last, rain or shine. There's a waterproof cover with adjustable hem cords, too, so you can keep this grouping nice, even in inclement weather.

• Pros: easy to fold and store, convenient for small spaces, budget-friendly
• Cons: not as comfortable as others
• Set Size: three-piece
• Material: steel

Don’t mind skipping the frills? This three-piece patio furniture set may be bare bones, but it will get the job done without costing you a pretty penny. It comes in a variety of colors and can be ordered with or without cushions (add an extra $30 if you choose to get them). Its small table and two chairs are super easy to fold up, giving you plenty of extra space when the set is not in use, and it’s made of rust-resistant steel to boot.

• Pros: space-saving, removable covers, easy to put together
• Cons: cheap cushion fabric
• Set Size: five-piece
• Material: polyrattan

This five-piece balcony furniture set comes complete with two chairs, two nesting ottomans, which are designed to slide under the seats and save (precious) space and a small table. And don’t worry about bringing anything inside when it rains: This set ticks the boxes of being both water- and UV-resistant. If the comfy cushions get dirty, just remove the covers and give ‘em a good wash. Alternately, you could replace them altogether—something Amazon shoppers recommend on account of the "cheap" fabric. Advised one expert: "My suggestion is to get different covers if you can find them."

• Pros: chairs rock and swivel, eco-friendly fabric, extra-thick cushions
• Cons: requires assembling
• Set Size: three-piece
• Material: polyrattan, steel, olefin

Let's skip to the good part: The two included patio chairs in this three-piece set can rock back and forth. Not only that, but they swivel by a full 360 degrees. The cushions of this baby are built for comfort, with extra-thick olefin that's reportedly greener than cotton, wool, silk or rayon, and we also like that they're reportedly stain-resistant and durable. The small side table, meanwhile, is just the right size for holding a few glasses or coffee mugs, a book, reading glasses or even a decorative plant.

• Pros: detachable lounger, all-weather wicker, thick cushions
• Cons: assembly may be difficult
• Set Size: two-piece
• Material: polyrattan, steel

L-shaped furniture is nice because it gives you the option to kick back with your feet up when you want to bask in the sun or to sit normally on the couch part when you're chatting with guests. This set makes an "L" with its detachable lounger, which allows you to convert this grouping into a three-person loveseat if you so choose. There's a side table with a tempered glass top to rest your belongings on, too.

• Pros: space-saving design, removable cushions
• Cons: may be too small for some adults
• Set Size: three-piece
• Materials: polyrattan, steel, glass

Want to enjoy a romantic dinner à deux out on your patio, deck or balcony? This adorable three-piece includes a 20-inch-wide glass-top table that's just the right size for a meal under the stars. Its two chairs can uniquely be tucked underneath the table to save space when needed, and the seat cushions are removable (you know, for easy cleaning). We also like that the rear legs are slightly curved, so they’ll sit comfortably more on grass and lawns (no wobbling here!).

• Pros: dries off quickly, sleek style, budget-friendly, included tool kit
• Cons: hard to assemble
• Set Size: four-piece
• Material: steel, textilene fabric

Sometimes, you just want something that looks nice that won't break the bank. That's where this Greesum set comes in. It's sized such that it will fit in some small spaces but won't look out of place on larger decks or patios. The steel frames feature an anti-rust coating and you'll get two chairs, a loveseat and the glass coffee table. For its price, it's a nice setup that will give any outdoor space a more homey feel—especially with a cozy throw blanket draped over its arms. As a little added bonus, we love that the company throws in a little tool kit for assembly.

• Pros: aesthetically pleasing, study material, easy to fold for storage
• Cons: small size, less comfortable than others
• Set Size: three-piece
• Material: steel, ceramic tiles

This little garden set, which features a whimsical mosaic made of strong ceramic tile, includes a small table and a set of chairs crafted from super durable, weather-resistant metal. It’s practically begging to be placed in your backyard next to a rose garden, where you and your favorite person can share a cup of tea on a gorgeous summer day. The chairs can be tucked away for storage and it comes with a one-year warranty in case anything should go awry.

• Pros: UV-resistant, sturdy, high-quality, provides storage space, handwoven
• Cons: difficult to put together, screws may not align, may be smaller than expected
• Set Size: three-piece set
• Material: polyrattan, polyester, metal, tempered glass

Poolside drinks, anyone? This three-piece patio bar set is made with durable handwoven wicker and has an anti-UV finish that will keep it looking far pricer than the $100 you spent on it. The two shelves provide storage, and Amazon shoppers say it's super sturdy once you finally get the thing built—you'll want to approach it with patience however, as most cite the process as taking over an hour with a struggle to get the screws aligned. Still, as one writes, "100 percent worth it!"

• Pros: sturdy, rust-resistant, high-quality, adjustable feet
• Cons: screws may be stripped
• Set Size: seven-piece
• Material: cast aluminum

Cast aluminum is known for its high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance against corrosion, so it's no surprise that we chose this dining set as a favorite. With an antique-inspired design cast in stunning bronze cast-aluminum, it comes with four chairs and a round or square table. The chairs were built to contour to your frame, right down to their curved armrests, and the feet are adjustable to help ward off wobbliness.

• Pros: real wood, water resistant, stain resistant, no assembly
• Cons: can be uncomfortable
• Set Size: three-piece
• Material: acacia wood

For anyone who appreciates the simple things in life, there's this three-piece wooden bistro set with easily foldable (and portable) chairs and a table. It set comes fully assembled, so you can enjoy it right out of the box, and its natural acacia wood frame should be plenty warp- and fungus-resistant. Still, the company says you'll want to take special care of it to keep it looking its best, shielding it from extreme heat or cold and not allowing it to get fully soaked, despite its water-resistance.

• Pros: included protective cover, room for a large group
• Cons: cushion covers are not removable
• Set Size: seven-piece
• Material: polyrattan

You know the saying "the more the merrier?" This set embodies it. With room for seven people to enjoy breakfast, shoot the breeze or stargaze, this three-person sofa with a large dining table and matching stools can be set up however you please. The 52-inch table is large enough for several settings, and each and every piece is made from weather-resistant wicker. It even comes with a fitted protective fabric cover to protect it from the sun, which is a huge bonus.

• Pros: comfortable, removable cushion covers, easy to assemble, recyclable
• Cons: chairs sit low to the ground, no labels on instructions, cushion colors may be different in person, chairs may be shorter than expected
• Set Size: four-piece
• Material: polyrattan, steel

Like many of the sets on this list, this four-piece is built with a weather-friendly galvanized steel frame and handwoven PE rattan that's both durable and sleek. Unlike the other sets on this list, however, it's one of the few shoppers say is *actually* easy to assemble, even without labels on the instructions. (Don't worry—there's a YouTube for that.) Its cushion covers are removable for easy washing, meaning your kid's ice cream disaster won't be the end of the world, and we love that the PE rattan is recyclable, according to the company.

• Pros: lightweight, easy to clean, can be rearranged, rust-resistant
• Cons: sits low to the ground, cushions can get saggy
• Set Size: seven-piece
• Material: polyrattan, galvanized steel

Sure, this bright, bold set that comes in fun shades of turquoise or red as well as several more muted options, pictured above, is on the larger side, but that's because it really has it all. You'll get four middle chairs, two corner chairs and a tempered glass table. Everything is made from durable, synthetic polyrattan wicker that's reportedly all-weather resistant, easy to clean and lightweight, plus, its galvanized steel frame is reportedly rust-resistant.

• Pros: comfortable, good value
• Cons: instructions may be confusing, smaller than average
• Set Size: three-piece
• Materials: polyrattan

While the jury's still out about whether or not the assembly for this three-piece design is a breeze or requires a little extra help, a 4.4-star collective rating from more than 13,000 signals that it's likely worth the effort. "Comfortable" was a word that came up often among Amazon shoppers (no doubt thanks to the sponge-filled removable cushions) and the waterproof PE rattan collection features a durable steel frame that's likely to weather a storm—or twelve.

• Pros: ergonomic design, modern look
• Cons: can be wobbly
• Set Size: three-piece
• Materials: polyrattan, metal

With its bright finish and a modern, all-weather woven rope design, this bistro set stands out among a sea of boring blacks and browns. The two chairs come with thick padded cushions that are covered in water-resistant polyester, along with a matching round café table. More than just looking cool, however, Ttose with sore backs and aching joints will appreciate the ergonomic design of the chairs, along with the vented back that helps promote air circulation (something that's sure to come in handy through these dog days of the season).

• Pros: chairs swivel and rock, ergonomic design, weather-resistant
• Cons: chairs and table arrive in separate shipments
• Set Size: five-piece
• Material: textilene fabric, metal

We love that the four chairs included in this set can swivel on their bases, allowing parents to keep an eye on their kids as they play in the yard without having to crane their necks. The square table is paired with four weather-resistant chairs with breathable textilene, all of which come on sturdy metal frames with powder coating. The tabletop also has an umbrella hole for optional shade.
