What is the best weatherproof garden furniture?
Cast aluminium is perhaps the best option for all-year-round, weather safe garden furniture. It won't rust as badly when in rain or snow and it’s sun-safe too, so it’s easy to leave outside. At Leekes, we also have a variety of other materials such as wood and steel that are durable in the outdoors too. We also have a range of bean bag seating that is easy to take indoors and furniture covers for when the weather gets bad.
What is the difference between rattan and wicker outdoor furniture?
Rattan is the name of the bamboo used in many outdoor furniture options and wicker is the name for the method of weaving. So, you will often find wicker rattan furniture, which is the method of weaving rattan. We have a range of rattan outdoor furniture that suits a variety of gardens. It can add to a classic patio furniture look, or refresh your garden with a modern design. We have a range of brands, from Hartman, Kettler and more, who all provide stylish garden furniture sets.
What garden furniture should you choose?
There are so many styles to explore, from class wooden patio furniture to luxury sofa sets. If you have a patio, ensure you’ve got enough space to fit your garden furniture. It’s also good to have your outdoor furniture in a place that’s shaded on summer days and well-lit on warm nights. Choose fabrics that are easier to keep clean, such as simple fabric covers or leather effects. Wood is also a great, low-maintenance choice. Outdoor lighting, cushions and rugs can also complete your patio furniture, so you have all the finishing touches to create the perfect space to enjoy. To complete the look, why not look at our BBQs or spas and pools to make your garden even more fun.
What is the best colour for outdoor furniture?

Light colours will add a touch of elegance and modern luxury to your garden.
