Outdoor Furniture Sets

Outdoor Seating Collections for Your Backyard Space

An outdoor seating set can turn your porch, deck, or patio into a relaxing retreat, a refreshing spot for entertaining family or friends, or a home office when the sunny skies and warm temperatures beckon. Ashley carries a wide selection of outdoor seating sets so you can choose the size and materials that fit your space and your taste.

Types of Outdoor Seating Sets

Whether you’re interested in creating a casual hangout space or enhancing your outdoor dining options, you’ll find a variety of outdoor seating sets to suit your needs, such as:

• Outdoor bar sets ranging from stools and a countertop for an intimate get-together to larger tables with a fire pit and several chairs to keep the party going after dark
• Outdoor bistro sets, ranging from Adirondack-style armchairs with a small end table to a round table and chic metal chairs for chatting poolside
• Outdoor conversation sets, such as a Beachcroft 3-Piece Outdoor Seating Set with removable polyester cushions and throw pillows that are easy to clean
• Outdoor dining sets with a range of seating options such as cushioned benches, folding chairs, armchairs, and swivel chairs

How to Choose the Best Outdoor Seating Set

Before you shop for an outdoor seating set, designers recommend measuring your space and making a list of what activities you’d like to do there.

If you love to dine alfresco, small outdoor seating sets that include a dining table and chairs can work even in small spaces, such as a balcony. Set the scene with outdoor dinnerware and lighting for a get-away-from-it-all feeling.

Want a fresh-air family room? Wicker outdoor seating sets can make a porch or a patio cozy and inviting. Add a rocking chair, plush cushions, or an outdoor rug, and get ready to unwind under the stars.

Hosting friends for cocktails or a light lunch? Metal outdoor seating sets with a fire pit table or an outdoor sectional seating set with an outdoor cooler provide ample room to settle in for a while without heading back to the kitchen.

Just remember to keep about a foot of space around any outdoor seating set for guests to maneuver, designers say.

Shop for weather-resistant fabrics for cushioned seating to keep your outdoor seating set looking its best for years to come. These colors stay brighter longer and resist mold or mildew growth. Most outdoor furniture nowadays has forgiving materials and finishes, so you can revive it with a mild cleaning. But to cut down on the upkeep, look for an outdoor seating set you can store in a garage or under protective outdoor furniture covers when needed.
