Choosing Outdoor Furniture Only By Looks

• When shopping for outdoor furniture, it is easy
  to be lured by the current trend or friends
  recommendation. Or may be you find something that
  looks good and made an impulsive purchase. You
  obviously will be wasting your money if you dont
  consider factors like quality, materials, or
  construction while buying outdoor
  furniture and its very unlikely to be fit for
  use or stand the test of time.

Not Choosing The Right Material

• Outdoor furniture is available in a wide array of
  materials, from wood and metal to wicker and
  resin. Each of these materials deliver different
  properties which can make them more or less
  suited to your needs. 
• The durability of outdoor furniture lies in its
  choice of material and picking the right quality
  material is a difficult decision. 
• The three major factors for deciding your type of
  material are weathering capability, maintenance
  care required and aesthetics. 
• Make sure your outdoor furniture frames, fabrics
  and cushions are weather-resistant and that they
  dont deteriorate easily.

Not Dimensioning Properly

• You want outdoor furniture which fits your space
  but still gives enough room for the furniture to
  function comfortably. So before you head to the
  store measure your space.
• Once done, compare the dimensions with the
  measurements of the furniture sets before buying
  and see which ones fit comfortably allowing for
  free space. And while youre at it, taking a
  measurement tape along with you would be a good
  idea too. An inch out of the required space can
  create an unpleasant and uncomfortable
  environment. Make sure you leave enough space
  around your furniture for adequate comfort.

Choosing The Wrong Style

• In the same way that some forget to think about
  measurements, other shoppers also make the
  mistake of not considering the design of their
  house. You have to remember to choose outdoor
  furniture that fits with the overall theme of
  your house exterior and your other furniture. 
• To be safe, always try best to coordinate with
  your other furnishings.

Choosing Cheap Outdoor Furniture

• Though it may be tempting, dont go for the
  cheapest price you can get on outdoor
  furniture, which will result in costing more over
  time.
• Even if you have to spend a bit more to get
  better quality, dont think twice. After all its
  going to be subject to the elements. 
• Its important for your garden furniture is good
  quality to withstand the elements and remain in
  good condition for years to come. You do not want
  to have any unnecessary repairs or replacements
  in the future.
