Polywood
4.6
(21)
"I second Pollywood. It’s not cheap but it’s worth it because it lasts forever and you can leave it outside all winter."
"Polywood. It’s more or less traditional patio furniture that’s made out of trex. It’s good in the sun (doesn’t bleach), is heavy enough to not blow around, can be pressure washed, you can leave it out in the winter, and will last forever."
"I have Polywood adirondack chairs from target and they have held up amazing. Plus they don’t get hot and are very easy to clean."
"We love Polywood. It’s spendy but worth it"
"Spend the money on nice polywood / plastic composite stuff. This will be year 3 having my set and it's still basically new. They are nice and heavy so they don't blow away, and I haven't had any fading issues either."
"It was so worth it. It’s buy it for life."
"Never had an issue with mine. Just got Polywood dining table this year, but I’ve had Adirondack chairs for 8-9 years now and they’re good as new."
"My polywood furniture is bullet proof and in our ranch setting there are a lot of rats / mice / critters. The quality still looks brand new after years of use."
"The patio furniture has not been affected by squirrels in over a year."
"I'd recommend looking into Polywood. It's durable and requires minimal maintenance."

"Great investment in outdoor furniture with frequent sales."
"Costco all day. If it’s bad, you bring it back."
"Costco. No question. They have super stringent quality testing for items they sell."

Sunbrella

"This is quality fabric and will hold up in the sun."
"My only input is to get something with Sunbrella fabric/cushions."
"If you do cushions the sunbrella fabric is worth the splurge."
"Sunbrella fabric does not fade and looks brand new."
"If there is fabric to involved, make sure it’s Sunbrella brand fabric."
