We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A four-piece V-shaped outdoor sectional that you'll thoroughly enjoy sitting on while sipping cocktails and sharing conversations. FYI, putting it together is super simple so no need to panic or jump on TaskRabbit.
2. A pop-up wind-resistant gazebo if you like the idea of having a gazebo in your backyard but aren't willing to shell out a few thousand dollars for a permanent one (why so expensive?). It can fit up to six people and only takes one minute to set up and break down. If this isn't a win then I don't know what is.
3. A tortoise garden sculpture that looks oddly realistic. If one thing's for certain, this new faux pet in your garden will be a conversation starter if nothing else. Let us know what you name him!
4. A woven wicker outdoor dining set that will likely become your favorite spot for al fresco meals no matter what time of day it is. Don't be intimidated by the white cushions — they are removable and washable so you don't have to worry about stains cramping your style.
5. A cult-favorite Weber charcoal grill that's the perfect size for any outdoor space — be it patio, balcony, stoop, porch, or yard — and can barbecue grub for a decent amount of guests. At last, you can make those TikTok grill recipes that have been burning a hole in your saved folder.
6. A set of solar-powered stake lights in a classy copper finish that charge by day and gleam at night. Whether you put these in your driveway or along a walking path in your yard, these energy-saving lights will come in handy and last you for seasons to come.
7. A classy lantern tiki torch to (stylishly) keep mosquitoes away while you're chilling in your backyard. Did we mention, it can be used as a full-size torch, mid-size garden torch, OR table torch? And don't forget to grab a bottle of bug-repelling citronella and cedar fuel while you're at it.
8. A string of LED microdots in case you're looking to subtly brighten up your outdoor space in style. Whether you string them along the perimeter of your backyard or add them into planters or lanterns, these lights will give your space the small touch of personality that it was missing.
9. A neutral palm leaf rug for those who like the idea of having a rug as outdoor decor but also desire something simple that can stick around through many backyard makeovers. You can never go wrong with a cute, neutral colored rug in any area of your home — backyard included.
10. A cozy outdoor pillow that is designed to add comfort to those stiff patio chairs but also does a great job of adding flashes of color to your backyard decor. Fair warning: Your indoor pillows may get a bit jealous of these (they're that dang comfortable!).
11. A relaxing porch swing that's also surprisingly super easy to put together. Spending time in your backyard reading, bird watching or doing whatever you heart desires will hit differently in this swing designed with ultimate comfort and relaxation in mind.
12. Or a chaise lounge swing that is indeed as comfortable as it looks. Between the zero-gravity design and the attached umbrella that creates the perfect shaded area anywhere in your backyard, you may want to consider grabbing two so everyone in the household can enjoy.
13. An all-weather outdoor coffee table so you can enjoy food and drinks outdoors with some panache. Featuring a wicker and steel frame and glass top, you don't have to worry about the wind blowing this stable table across your yard (we've all been there once or twice).
14. A sturdy double hammock with a stand and carrying case if you've always wanted a hammock in your yard but also love the idea of having one that's portable. According to some reviewers, if relaxation was a piece of backyard furniture it would be this hammock set, so add to your cart and rejoice later.
15. A self-watering planter in case you're planning on adding some greenery to your backyard and need as much help as possible keeping your plant babies hydrated. What better way to fake having a green thumb than buying planters that do some of the work for you?
16. A set of decorative garden flamingos in case you're looking to give your backyard a bit of a retro tropical feel. We're not sure how flamingo decor has remained a backyard essential for decades, but we're happy because honestly, how could you resist?
17. A tabletop fireplace to heat things up in your backyard. Just imagine sitting next to the warm ambient fire sharing laughs or marshmallows. We see you and your family creating many memories with this!
18. A classic outdoor clock that also measures the ambient temperature. This stylish yet functional piece of decor is perfect for leaving your phone inside so you can truly enjoy time outdoors without reaching for your device every two seconds to "check the time" (only to end up mindlessly scrolling through your feeds).
19. A cascading fountain that will give your backyard the ~tranquil vibes~ you've been longing for. The realistic stone texture and sound of running water will instantly transport you to the outdoor spa of your dreams.
20. A large metal and wood wind chime that's nice to look at but also super soothing to listen to. We're not sure the exact science behind why wind chimes makes you feel so serene but we are grabbing a few for the good vibe-rations.
21. A durable ceramic birdbath so your feathered friends can enjoy your yard when they stop by to say hello. As the gracious host that you are, it's only right that you accommodate them — and trust us, they'll appreciate every bit of the hospitality.
22. A simple zero-gravity lounge chair if the most important part of sprucing up your backyard is creating a comfortable space to sit. The adjustable footrest and lockable back allows you to recline at the perfect angle so you can sit back, relax and soak up the sun.
23. An innovative cooler bar table so you can have all of your favorite beverages at arm's reach. This cooler keeps beverages cold for up to 12 hours and emptying is as simple as using the drain plug. If you haven't figured it out already, this is a must-have item for your backyard barbecues.
24. A functional yet chic umbrella that you probably wish you'd found sooner. But don't fret, because there's still plenty of time to get use out of it this summer. Did we mention that it's water,- UV- and fade-resistant and even tilts to block out the sun wherever you need it? Score.
25. An environmentally friendly and stylish rain barrel in case you're looking for a way to collect and store rainwater (that isn't a eyesore). FYI, this design holds up to 50 gallons (!!!) of water (yes, you read that correctly) and comes with a hose.
