                     4 TIPS FOR BUYING YOUR 
PERFECT OUTDOOR DINING SET
Outdoor Dining
◦ Enjoying a meal in the open air is one of the greatest joys in life. There can’t be 
anything better than sitting outdoors on a beautiful evening and sipping a latte or a 
glass of wine with family and friends.
◦ The perfect outdoor experience requires delicious meals, exciting drinks, inviting 
patio furniture, and the right outdoor dining set. Here’s a comprehensive guide 
to help you buy the right table, chairs, and other furniture for that complete dining 
experience. 
1. Consider your Dining Space
2. Choose a Table Size and Shape
3. Select the Table Material
4. Prepare a Layout
Consider your Dining Space
◦Measure the space available in your backyard or patio area. It is vital to leave some 
open space for guests to walk around and to move the tables and chairs 
comfortably. You also need about two to three feet of open space for people to pull 
out their chairs. For instance, if the area is narrow, go for a small, square, or 
rectangular patio dining set. 
Choose a Table Size and 
Shape
◦Once you have measured the available space, you can start looking at the options 
for patio dining sets. If you have a balcony, select a bistro or outdoor bar set
 instead of a standard-height set. Bar-height tables have smaller perimeters and 
allow for more open space visually.
Select the Table Material
◦ Patio dining tables are available in a variety of materials. You can choose one as 
per your personal preference bearing the appearance in mind. The two important 
factors to consider when you select the table material are the amount of 
maintenance required and weather durability. Since you are buying outdoor 
furniture, it must be capable of withstanding the harsh reactions of different 
weathers. 
Prepare a Layout
◦When you plan outdoor seating, consider the number of people for whom you 
require seats. Is there a need for wider seats? The capacity for standard tables is 
four to eight diners, but there are also options for two to 10 or more diners. Sets 
come with an appropriate number of chairs, making the decision easier for you.
