3 Reasons Why You Should Purchase Patio Furniture Before Summer
With the year in full swing, it's remarkable to think how fast warmer weather is approaching. Many frugal shoppers ask, "When is the best time to buy patio furniture?"

Frequently Asked Questions About Buying Patio Furniture Before Summer
Buy before Labor Day—before the rush. Summer sparks a mad dash and stockouts. Ordering ahead secures your set and avoids late-season leftovers. Patio Productions recommends shopping early to lock availability and value before peak demand hits.
You get first pick—fewer compromises. Early orders beat dwindling inventory. You avoid “last one in the warehouse” pieces and get the exact arrangement and colors you want—smart shoppers reserve their sets before the seasonal scramble.
Plan for up to 4 weeks. Custom Sunbrella cushions are handmade after you order. Allow as much as four weeks, so ordering early ensures you’re enjoying cookouts—not waiting on cushions—when warm weather arrives.
Yes—reserve your order. Most retailers allow backorders. Reserving early protects your place in line and helps you avoid settling for substitutions when demand peaks.
Often—low inventory pushes prices higher. As stock thins, manufacturers commonly raise prices to meet demand. Buying before summer helps you avoid seasonal increases and get the best value.
Inventory reductions and clearance steals. Pre-season sales can run up to 35% off, and discontinued lines may be deeply discounted (think “96% Off” closeouts). Early birds catch the best deals—and complete sets.
More time enjoying, less time waiting. Picking styles, colors, and fabrics takes time. Ordering ahead means your set arrives and is assembled before the first barbecue—so you get the most out of every warm weekend.
When is the Best Time to Buy Patio Furniture
1. Supply and Demand
Plain and simple, it's a mad dash for outdoor furniture when Summer arrives. When products are in high demand, there is a greater chance that the outdoor setting that you want is out of stock. You can avoid this by placing your order in advance or reserving your order. Most retailers will allow you to place your order on backorder.
Another thing to consider is production quality. When you order earlier in the season, you get first pick. That means your chances of receiving a defective set are much lower. When supplies run low, you may receive the last chaise lounge chair sitting in the back of the warehouse all year. Be smart, and get what you want before it's gone.

2. Get the Most out of the Summer Months
Sometimes we forget how long it will take from when we start shopping to when we actually enjoy our first outdoor cook-out. If you are a happily married couple, husbands should know one thing; shopping is never easy. Changing your decision about the arrangement you would like, colors, fabrics, etc. is something that you don't want to rush.
Oftentimes, homeowners want Custom Sunbrella Cushions. These cushions take longer to finish because each piece is handmade once you place your order. Allow up to 4 weeks for these types of orders to arrive at your doorstep.

3. The 96% Off Sale
Everybody knows that when the price of something goes down, it's the time to buy! Many times you can catch manufacturers and retailers while they are trying to clear out a discontinued product line. If they don't have enough to complete a larger set, you may be able to cash in on big savings by scoring that outdoor set that they are trying to liquidate.
Keep in mind it's not uncommon to see prices rise during the summer. When manufacturers are low on inventory, it's common practice to raise prices to meet demand. Don't pay more for something that you could have ordered earlier for a discounted price.
