1. A two-person bistro set with two cushioned rocking chairs and a small table, because the chairs will optimize your porch relaxation time, and the glass-top table adds some elegance to your space. This compact set is especially good for smaller outdoor spaces, like balconies.
2. An outdoor patio daybed that will make those lazy days in your yard feel like a vacation. With this setup, two people can lay comfortably on the pillows underneath the water-resistant canopy, which provides plenty of shade.
3. A wooden planter bench so you can be surrounded by nature's beauty whenever you're outside (even if you're on the balcony of your extremely urban apartment). This solid wood two-seater has planters on either end that are large enough to be filled with small trees, bushes, or whatever your green thumb-y heart desires.
4. A cushioned outdoor loveseat that combines contemporary and rustic influences, so it fits into just about any backyard space. The solid acacia wood frame is weather-resistant and the deep seat will help your guests truly take a load off.
5. A set of four aluminum stackable patio dining chairs so you won't be scrambling for extra seats at your next outdoor gathering. Whether you are starting to build your patio setup or you need additional seating, these chairs are rust-resistant and ship fully assembled for an easy setup.
6. A pair of Acapulco chairs with a hammock weave finish that will catch the eyes of all your guests. Plus, their steel frames and rattan material means they are built to last.
7. An oversized four-in-a-row game because it's the super-fun big kid/adult version of the two-player childhood classic. The board is made of solid, heat-resistant and UV-resistant wood and folds up easily when it's not in use, so the only thing you have to worry about is your opponent getting that all-important middle spot.
8. A long reclining chaise that is as sturdy as it is comfortable, with a steel frame wrapped in woven wicker rattan, a cream cushion you can tie to the frame so it stays in place, and six reclining positions.
9. A reclining zero gravity chair to make sitting feel more like ~floating~ — so if you don't have a pool, this can get you as close to that "lying on a raft in the deep end" feeling as possible. The breathable fabric will make you feel cool and dry, even if you're sitting on it out in the sun.
10. An aluminum garden bench with a basket-weave style seat and back that will stand out anywhere you put it, even indoors — but let's be real, this piece was born to be the star of your backyard.
11. A ceramic garden stool to give your flower beds and shrubs a little extra hit of style. This can also work as a small table or stool inside your home, but its weather-resistant materials make it suitable for outdoor use, too.
12. A plastic Adirondack chair that's perfect for an experienced backyard entertainer, as well as someone just starting theirr outdoor decorating journey. And the fact that you can fold this chair for storage during the off-season makes it even more dynamic.
13. A lighted umbrella to make your outdoor area welcoming and comfy, day and night. The umbrella's solar panels fuel the LED lights, so you don't have to worry about plugs or batteries — just enjoy the umbrella's shade during the day, and soft light at night.
14. A porch swing that has major hammock vibes (without taking up a hammock-sized amount of room in your yard). With its heavy duty metal frame and cushion, it should have you swinging for years to come.
15. A six-person dining table for when it's your turn to be the host. Made from rust-resistant steel and with a slatted top, you won't have to worry about this beauty getting gross or rusted from rainwater — you just have to worry about making the best fruit salad possible to serve to all your BBQ guests.
16. A wicker bar cart with a metal frame that will allow you to serve your guests with fun, coastal style, indoors and out.
17. A giant block stacking game because it's perfect for when you want to take game night outdoors. The 56-piece game comes with a carrying case, making it easy to take with you and put away when you're done playing (I'm not saying you *have* to make the loser do clean-up duty but...you probably will).
18. A butterfly-shaped metal bench that will basically transform your outdoor space into a sculpture garden. This whimsical steel bench is solid, and can support up to 300 pounds, so you don't have to worry about it taking flight in a strong wind. 🦋
19. A giant pong game so you can see if your skills are just as good when you're playing on a whole yard, instead of just a ping-pong table.
20. A three-seat metal porch swing that can fit the whole gang when it's time to lay out (or just give you some real space to spread out). With its built-in canopy, you'll never have to worry about sunburn, so you can just focus on relaxing, that key summer activity.
21. A floor lantern with a battery-operated LED candle, so you can have all the style of a real candle lantern, with none of the risk (who wants to wake up at 3 a.m. in a cold sweat, wondering if they remembered to blow the candle on the patio out? Not me). The flameless candle sits in a powder-coated steel frame and automatically shuts off after five hours with the timer function.
22. A small metal bistro table that's perfect for small talk and other casual moments in the great outdoors. This table for two would be a perfect fit for small outdoor spaces, or to accent a bigger outdoor space, and the metal top is UV resistant, meaning that it won't get faded after being exposed to that scorching summer sun.
23. A standing patio heater to keep warm on those cold outdoor evenings. You shouldn't have to spend the whole night indoors just because it's a little bit chilly, and this propane standing heater will make it more bearable — plus, you can adjust the temperature by just turning the knob.
24. A four-person metal dining table that was made for all weather, so you can keep it outside all year (even when the temperature turns and an outdoor meal is the last thing on your mind).
25. A gas and charcoal grill just in case you're ready to become the undisputed superstar of cookout season. This gas-and-grill model comes with stainless-steel warming racks and two side tables for additional working space.
26. A camping hammock that you can wrap yourself up in and easily take with you everywhere. And we mean literally everywhere — this can work indoors or out, and it folds down into a carrying case, so you can take it out camping, or even just to visit a friend, so you two can both cuddle up together in comfort.
27. A vented umbrella to help provide stability and safe coverage during unpredictable weather. This umbrella has UV protection, is water resistant, and rust resistant, too. Adjust how much coverage the umbrella provides with the easy-to-use crank mechanism.
28. A 22-inch fire pit that you can pick up just in time for bonfire season. This instant backyard centerpiece comes with a mesh cover to keep the burning embers in the pit and a poker helps to make it easy to remove the lid and stoke the fire. Plus, it comes with a grill if you want to use it as a barbecue (!!). Seriously, this is going to re-invent your backyard hangs.
