Promising review: "I am pleased with this product so far. The cushions are comfy and it's a good height for sitting. Assembly was easy and didn't take long. I can't wait to enjoy more days on my porch with this set." —Kathrin Blosser

Get it from Amazon for $209.99 (available in three colors).

This swinging hammock chair comes with two cushions and installation hardware.

Promising review: "Back to basics — simple, chic, and comfortable. Perfect addition for the backyard, porch, anywhere you'd like to lounge. There were no installation directions, but they do provide a number of options to work with based on your needs." —afytasuki

Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in three colors).

Plus, the stand is easy to assemble, disassemble and pack up in the included carrying case for storage or travel.

Promising review: "Features to love: The cotton fabric is sturdy and breathable. I never feel stuck to it the way I do in a nylon hammock. The setup/take down is super easy and the frame is very sturdy — we have definitely put 300+ pounds in it. The ability to raise and lower the hammock with the multiple hook positions might be the best feature. I have bad knees and like to get into the hammock from a higher position... no problem. My kids like it lower so they can reach the ground to swing it... no problem. It works great as a traditional hammock to lay in. It works as a 'swing' to sit on. It has enough fabric that you can cover up if you're cold or want to block out light or bugs. We have accidentally left it out in the rain several times and it dries great, hasn't faded from the sun, hasn't had any mold, and hasn't developed any weird smell.

Things not to love: Nothing! This is a great hammock. It may not be as portable as those little nylon hammocks but if this is for your yard and not for camping, this is hard to beat." —Mary

Get it from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in four fabric types and 39 colors).

It comes with the L-shaped sofa sectional and the side table, which has a tempered glass top.

Promising review: "I’m shocked by how comfortable this is. It has more cushion to it than my couch. I’m someone who will spend hours on my patio for meetings and such. I put it together by myself. The trick is to put the screws all in before tightening them, otherwise it will seem like they don't fit. Put the screws in and twist a few times. Once you have them all in, then go back and tighten them. Trust me, it’ll save you doing extra work. This set is actually bigger than I expected, table included. Very pleased with this purchase." —Brooke D

Get it from Amazon for $399.99 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "What a cool use of space, and it's a great match for our outdoor set. I store sunscreen and other items when not entertaining. There's a reason thousands of people purchase this. It's a functional cool piece." —Mamma 4

Get it from Amazon for $80.96+ (available in two colors and three styles).

It comes with a bar table and two cushioned stools.

Promising review: "We ordered two of these outdoor bars for our patio. They look so great put side by side to create one long bar. I searched online for days and found this item to be the best value (as each bar comes with two stools, cushions, and the glass top). The instructions could have been a little more helpful, but it was fairly easy to figure out. The bar is very sturdy, and the shelving inside is great for extra storage. If you are looking for a relatively inexpensive way to improve your outdoor space, this bar is the perfect addition!" —Debbie M

Get it from Amazon for $159.99+ (available in four styles).

Promising review: "This set is beautiful, good quality — especially for the price and so sleek and bold looking! I ordered this twice because I was so thrilled with the first set I ordered!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $139.98+ (available in three cushion colors).

Promising review: "Exactly what I was looking for. Construction seems sturdy. Dimensions and style were perfect for the small patio space I was looking to get use out of, and the egg shape of the chairs is very comfortable. I paired them with a seagrass outdoor rug, faux fur chair pads, a beanbag-style pouf footstool, and some boho throw pillows, and love how the space was instantly transformed. I highly recommend this set." —Baby blues

Get it from Amazon for $199.99 (available in five colors).

Promising reviews: "Very sturdy and nice quality for the money paid!! Not difficult to assemble. Small table though it does fit six adults. Practical and looks good!!" —Theo Botis

Get it from Amazon for $179.99.

This table does *not* come with chairs as pictured above, so be sure to pick up a set of indoor/outdoor chairs if you need 'em.

Promising review: "For the price, it can't be beat. The table I received is by far the best 'budget' furniture item I have ever bought. It's not a cheap piece of junk that you would expect for the price by any means. It feels and looks like quality furniture. It's sturdy, easy to assemble, and looks fantastic. The packing was great and it had all the hardware (plus some extra). I'm kind of baffled." —Travis Longo

Get it from Amazon for $242.

Promising review: "Beautiful, hand-crafted, custom-fit to my railing. Creator is great to deal with on a custom piece. Everyone compliments it. I eat or have drinks on it every day and prefer it to eating at my dining room table! The second tier is ideal for serving dishes, glasses, bottles, and the main tier is ideal for main dishes, computers, and notebooks while optimizing my patio functionality and keeping me at my serene view throughout my day.

Promising review: "When I came across these Adirondack chairs, I immediately loved the bright blue color option that they had. The vibrant color was the perfect addition to bring some life and fun to our backyard patio area. I was also surprised with how quickly my husband was able to assemble the chair when it arrived using the easy to follow instructions. The chair seems very sturdy, durable, and high quality that it should be able to last being outdoors year round without showing wear and tear. I’m excited to enjoy many evenings outside with our friends and family enjoying the new furniture!" —Jessica

Promising review: "We bought two of these to use by the pool. The color is so vibrant and they were super easy to assemble! We used an electric pump and had them both complete in under five minutes total. If you follow the instructions and put the inflatable insert in the fabric cover before inflating, and inflate 90%, you will have no issues!" —Austin Collings

Promising reviews: "I absolutely love this egg chair! I'm so happy I purchased this item! It was relatively easy to put together. I put the base part together all by myself and the seat part I had help. It took us about an hour or so in total to put both pieces together. The chair is so comfortable to sit in!" —Donna

"Perfect place to curl up and read a book. It has been on our uncovered patio for over a year now and has held up to the weather perfectly well." —Katie

Promising review: "We love this lounge chair!!! The price was fabulous!! (And just a note... If you take care of your things — i.e. cover up the swing with a tarp and bring the cushions in when not using it — It will stay like new. Sun and rain can age anything! Easy-peasy!!) This lounge swing is so comfortable and made very well!! And it only took my hubby and I 25 to 30 minutes to put together. Take my word for it... you are not going to find a nicer lounge swing at this price!!" —Marash

Get it from Amazon for $229.99+ (available in nine colors).

Promising review: "My favorite purchase for our deck. I LOVE this fire table. Good size, great value compared to what is out there. Packaged nicely. My husband put it together alone in 30–45 minutes with no frustration and easy-to-follow directions. Puts out a decent amount of heat. Enough rocks to adequately cover. Just add your propane tank. I love that it has a lid as well. You will find sturdier fire tables, but not at this price. Excellent value." —MGF

Promising review: "Perfect size for our quaint balcony space in our condo building. The vibrant chartreuse color couples perfectly with our retro robin egg door.

We also put an electric pan on it so we can fry food outside instead of smoking up the house. We keep that pan underneath along with the grilling utensils. Its use is unlimited." —Tracey

Promising review: "Once it was together and everything was tightened, it feels very sturdy and well made. It fits our deck perfectly. I know some of the reviews mentioned it was small and it is, but that's what we wanted. Neither of us our particularly tall and our deck is only 10x11 so we didn't want something huge. It's perfect for our space. It's lightweight so I like that we can move it easily from the deck to the front porch or into the yard. We just put it together last night so we will have to see about longevity but for now we are very happy." —Brooke A. Bailey

Definitely worth the money!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I am super excited to share my feelings on these chairs! After doing a lot of research, I decided to go with these, and I am so glad I went with these! These are without exaggeration the best beach chairs I have ever lounged in. They come fully assembled, with the exception of the side drink rest, which is very easy to pop on. These fold up quite compactly and are very easy to transport. And these are so comfortable! When lounging in these chairs, I am incredibly relaxed. I look forward to lounging on the beach or in the backyard in these chairs. I have been a broken record telling everyone how wonderful these chairs are. You cannot go wrong if you go with these chairs!" —Bobby D
