I am looking for an attractive, sturdy easy to clean & look after table & chairs for my garden. (possibly one thats seats 6 people) However, do not want to spend a fortune, can anyone recommended where i should go for this, i.e Argos, Robert Dyas etc I have never brought garden furniture before, so need to know whats good & whats not! Thanks

Plastic doesn't wear too well. My favourite garden furniture is the wooden type. It lasts for years if you apply some wood oil to it once a year & it looks lovely. It can be expensive, but I got my set from my nearest IKEA store (www.ikea.co.uk) & it was cheaper than some plastic sets I've seen in garden centres etc!

Steal them from my house. But you're too late, some scumbucket already did it!!

Try Loot, or charity furniture stores.

We have a lovely wooden table and chairs but would they spoil if i left them out permanently for the summer? Theyre treated with something - ie they came like that. We hardly ever use them cos its a pain getting them in and out of the shed, but if i felt safe to leave them out we'd use them more! Its been so wet lately ..

I have wooden furniture out in my garden year long. If they are sealed with a non-yellowing polyurethane, you will need to add extra coats every other year or so to continue protection. Also, I purchased covers for my furniture that keeps the leaves off of them and adds protection during our rainy season. I have the ones with vinyl on the top but fabric underneath against the furniture. The ones that are only made of vinyl can trap moisture between the cover and wood which causes mold or mildew.

I once found some really nice furniture made of really heavy wire covered in plastic so that the summer rains did not harm it ...... it was never hot from the sun ...... but it was in a park, and I never was there when the caretakers were there, to ask where it had come from ...... I love that stuff.

With it went nice low round tables on a pedestal, in heavily coated natural wood ... they were also rainproof and really nice ... spill proof, too, and low enough for a child to feel comfortable using....

In this particular park, there were no umbrellas because planted in the seating section were Honey Locusts ... disarming and lovely ...

Ta!

Hammocks.
