Aluminium Garden Furniture Buying Tips

When you view different metal patio furniture sites make sure that you check the size of the table, are the table legs thin, is the table top flimsy? Is the chair smaller or lighter, what’s the weight of the furniture, can the cushions be washed, do the chairs arrive flat packed, do the chairs stack, how long is the guarantee? Fact – it is impossible in the UK to buy a flat packed aluminium garden chair that will stack! 

Make sure that the aluminium is powder coated using A grade outdoor paint and that the aluminium is not recycled. Reclaimed aluminium often contains impurities which can lead to metal fatigue and then structural failure. Also, our aluminium furniture is structurally guaranteed up to an incredible 10 years! Please note, none of our aluminium chairs require home assembly.

We powder coat all of our aluminium patio furniture so our sets do not require storage in the winter months. As aluminium will never rust all you have to do is wash the metal down occasionally. You can even put our chair cushions in the washing machine (only the removable covers!). 

When you are searching the internet via Google or any other search engine, there are a number of very important attributes that you definitely must consider; 

Here is our check list: 

1. Can the cushions covers be removed?
2. Is there a bespoke service (call us to change any set combination)
3. Are the seat pad covers machine washable?
4. Are the garden chairs flat packed which will cause you assembly stress?
5. Do the patio chairs stack?
6. Is the aluminium garden furniture powder coated?
7. What size is the chair?
8. How much do the chairs weigh?
9. Are the table tops cast aluminium or punched metal?
10. How long is the guarantee (ours is up to 10 years)?
11. Is most of the chair made from tubing rather than solid aluminium?
