Patio furniture can greatly enhance your outdoor living space.  By choosing your patio furniture wisely you will not only create a great outdoor ambiance but will also extend your inside décor to the patio and backyard.  
Choosing patio furniture should not be a hard decision. There are many types of outdoor furniture to choose from.  Taking a walk through a home improvement store, a patio furniture store, or a garden center during the spring and summer months will remind you of the many types and styles of furniture that are available.  Since there are so many options, selecting outdoor patio furniture or accessories to suit your decorating style should be a breeze.
Several factors should be taken into consideration: price, style, and landscaping:
When it comes to price, you need to examine your budget carefully. While it’s true you get what you pay for, it is possible to get an excellent deal for a high-quality product. Your comfortable patio furniture should not be a place where you skimp on money because it is an investment that will last for years to come. It is important to remember though, price doesn’t always equate to quality.
There are several different styles of comfortable patio furniture and what you choose will depend on your personal taste. Outdoor furniture is most commonly made out of wood, metal, plastic, wicker, or a combination thereof. Choose a style you like that fits your budget. Focus mostly on the cushions themselves–some sets may not come with them–because this is where your comfort is going to come from. Some sets may offer more comfortable cushions than others. Who wants to sit on the bare furniture? When you choose the material, consider the climate you live in and how well it will hold against the elements.
Depending on the number of people you wish to seat and the available space, you will need to choose something suitable from the many outdoor furniture sets on the market. It's a good idea to choose something that has matching seats, benches, and canopies if you want a coordinated look. For some people, outdoor tables may be all that is required, either because they already have other outdoor furniture and simply want to accommodate more people or because they want to have additional table space for all the extra food, drinks and tableware that goes with outdoor entertaining.
You should measure and plan where you will put the furniture to ensure you have room for the entire set, including an umbrella to provide shade.
Finally, it is important to remember that most outdoor furniture requires maintenance.  It may require re-staining, steam-cleaning or covering during harsh weather periods.  Be sure to know what maintenance your outdoor furniture requires as this will add to the cost of the furniture over the long run.
