Good news! In our continuing efforts to supply you, our customer, with the most efficient and effective service possible (while delivering the highest quality products, of course), we have decided to adopt a brand-new patio furniture supplier. Say hello to Harmonia Living.
Summer is in full swing and that means BBQ’s, parties, quiet dinners outdoors and more. But is your patio ready to go??? A quality summer bbq requires quality outdoor furniture. Don’t get caught dragging your indoor furniture outdoors when extra guests arrive. Our collection of outdoor wicker furniture is designed to give you the ample seating you need at prices you can afford! Make the most of these precious summer months with an outdoor furniture set the whole family can enjoy.
Quality outdoor wicker furniture starts with quality outdoor wicker strands. Cheap outdoor wicker furniture is made of PVC which is not only harmful to the environment but also won’t last as long as PE outdoor resin. Plus PE outdoor resin can be recycled making it the environmentally sound choice. A quality outdoor wicker set made from PE resin with an aluminum frame will last for decades making this an economically sound decision.
Another feature to focus on is dimensions. Many cheap outdoor wicker furniture sets shave money off the costs my shaving down the size as well. What this means is that a three seater couch will only fit three people squished together. Our three seater outdoor sofas will comfortably seat 3 and even 4 or 5 when in a pinch! So before you settle on a outdoor deep seating set make sure you carefully check all the dimensions and materials when comparing sets.
And finally don’t let summer fade away your cushions. When purchasing your outdoor furniture set make sure your set comes with quality outdoor fabric like Sunbrella or Outdura. These fabrics can last years in direct sun without fading. Plus quality outdoor fabrics resist mold from rain and fog making them the smart choice for your outdoor furniture cushions.

One of the most common questions I get at PatioProductions.com is "what is all weather wicker outdoor furniture and how is it different than synthetic wicker, resin wicker or outdoor wicker furniture?" Well truth be told they are all the same. That's not to say that all weather wicker outdoor furniture is the same in terms of quality, actually that couldn’t be further from the truth, but the terms themselves all refer to the same thing.
Resin is just another way of saying plastic. So is synthetic. So resin wicker and synthetic wicker are just fancy ways to say plastic wicker outdoor furniture. Of course none if the big outdoor brands use the word plastic when describing their furniture. Just imagine if expensive brands like Dedon or Brown Jordan tried to market a $7000 plastic sofa! Needless to say this wouldn’t go over so well so instead outdoor furniture brands make up fancy names like all weather wicker, synthetic wicker and resin wicker to describe this new style of outdoor furniture.
Although all weather wicker outdoor furniture is made of plastic, it’s not JUST plastic. To make high quality outdoor furniture that will last for years in the hot sun without ever fading or cracking very special plastics are used complete with UV inhibitors and color that’s dyed through vs. coated on the outside. The quality of plastic used can vary drastically so make sure you read up on how to pick a the best wicker and what to avoid. When quality plastics are use the result is the most durable and stylish outdoor furniture on the planet.
Another element important to the construction of quality outdoor wicker furniture is aluminum. Among metals, aluminum is extremely light weight and durable and it does not rust either making it the ideal metal for outdoor furniture. Another benefit of aluminum is that it is easy to work with so designers can create elaorate shapes like those found on outdoor wicker daybeds. Avoid frames that are made of steel because they are heavy and will rust. So before you click buy now make sure the product your purchasing is made with an aluminum frame!
Could your patio look better? Perhaps you’ve invested in some fine outdoor furniture to enhance the aesthetic of your backyard, and to provide welcoming outdoor comfort for your guests. But this may not be enough. How can you get that visual panache that your patio needs, without being too tacky or too expensive? Perhaps you might consider outdoor wall fountains.
Outdoor fountains are beautiful and easily maintained patio decorations that are available in a wide range of styles. Some water fountains are designed in metals such as stainless steel or copper. Others feature natural, elegant slate faces. Still others feature glass or mirror faces, acrylic resin, and in some cases wood materials like bamboo.
No matter what material you end up choosing for your outdoor wall fountain, you will find that the dynamic nature of this work of “living art” instantly enhances the beauty of your home’s back patio. Perhaps more importantly, an outdoor fountain serves as an anchor between the natural and artificial elements of your outdoor space. A fountain like this will make your entire backyard seem whole or complete, as it unifies every facet of your outdoor aesthetic, from the flowers and trees in your garden to the hardwood outdoor wicker furniture.
One great way to pick the perfect outdoor fountain for your patio is to find one that offsets or embellishes your outdoor furniture. For example, if your outdoor furniture is built from a light wood material like birch or oak, consider installing a copper outdoor fountain nearby. The warm, bronze tones of rustic copper are charming and welcoming when they are placed near a piece of light hued wood furniture. A soft-colored slate fountain also looks great in such a setting.
If your outdoor furniture is darker and heavier, however, a copper or soft-colored slate outdoor fountain may not be ideal. The deep, luxurious tones of teak furniture is complemented and offset very effectively with sleek stainless steel indoor water fountains, which provide a brilliant metallic hue in contrast to teak’s thick red and black tones. Mirror faces are also very effective when paired with dark furniture. If you’d rather have an outdoor wall fountain that seems more natural, consider investing in one with a dark-colored slate face, as this will accentuate the natural, deep tones of the furniture.
With time, patience, and a little bit of creativity, you will surely find the perfect outdoor fountains and outdoor patio furniture for your backyard.
