Please help with outdoor wicker furniture

Posted by dixiedog_2007 (My Page) on

I am looking for outdoor resin wicker furniture to put on my back screened in porch. I have searched numerous places on the internet. We do not have many places in my area to see anything in person thus my search is on the internet.

I found this furniture that I like along with the cushions that they offer. I like this style and I like the color of the cushions that I can get, but I don't really like the price. Has anyone seen anything similar for less the price?
I'm not familiar with this company nor any of them online to be honest. I haven't even checked out what the shipping costs would be�not sure I want to.:)

Any and all help would be appreciated. And as a P.S. Craigslist would not help much. Believe me, I live in a high priced area and nothing is cheap on Craigslist here.

First link furniture and second link cushions:

I was surprised at the cost of the outdoor furniture at the patio store ($4000 to $8000). My DD got a very nice set at Home Depot for about a 1/4 of the patio store price.

I was fortunate that I got this set including the table for $40 on CL. Granted, the colors are dated by I got the framed canvas ($25) from Salvation Army to help it out a little.

I purchased my 3 cushion sofa and glider chair at Sears a few years ago. I'm sorry I can't find the receipt, but it was reasonable compared to the Lloyd Flanders selections. I had it delivered (car is too small) for a fee and I scoured the internet for a "promo code" for a discount (score!)and combined it with the Memorial Day sale. My local Sears showed some of the collection that I eventually purchased, but I ordered my set online. I also looked at Target online, but the 3 seater sofa was sold out by the end of May.You are smart to start early.I was so happy with the Sears product, I later bought an outdoor table and chair set.

In the midwest we have Gordman's, Lowes, Home Depot and Menards. All sell wicker furniture....but more in the spring and it does go fast. Gordman's has a big selection but don't know about the quality.

Have you checked Pier 1? We have a set of wicker rockers with ottoman and table from Pier 1. They're indoor wicker, but since they never get wet we've been able to use them on the screened porch. They do have outdoor wicker available.

Here is a link that might be useful: Pier 1

Thank you for all of the help. I posted this same question on another forum that I frequent and low and behold Kmart of all places has some wonderful resin wicker furniture that looks almost exactly like what I was looking at for 3/4's the price. I ordered a full size sofa, 2 chairs, coffee table and 2 end tables. They are heavy, almost the same color and while the cushions aren't what I showed (they will be yellow) I will add colorful pillows and will be great. I am thrilled and they are going to be delivered in less then 2 weeks for everything!

I've got some power washing to do and then some painting and it's going to look terrific. I have to hold off a bit because of weather but I'm excited. I've been using old furniture out there for the last 4 years and this will be a fresh new start along with all the new landscaping that I worked on last season in the backyard (worked by behind off!!!).

Thank you again.

This is what I ended up going with. Here is the sofa.
