Wayfair is one of our go-to sites for furniture and decor, and its outdoor selection doesn’t disappoint. There are so many choices for conversation sets (like four-piece rattan set that seats four people), outdoor pillows, and patio bar essentials—and many of them ship for free and arrive in just days. You’ll even find a dedicated section of outdoor furniture for small spaces, which includes this table and chairs set for two people. There’s also the option to get custom patio furniture and cushions if you’re willing to wait longer for delivery. These pieces have multiple options to choose from for cushions, frames, colors, and more.

If you have any questions about a particular item or the site in general, you can easily message customer service using the “chat now” button on every product page. The representatives can often help you find information that might be missing from an item’s description. The site offers free shipping on orders over $35, but depending on what you buy, there are sometimes options to upgrade to full-service delivery and assembly. Wayfair accepts returns for most items (excluding clearance and custom options) within 30 days of delivery. Just note that your refund will subtract the return shipping costs, and the item must be disassembled, in its original condition, and shipped back in original packaging or a box of similar size.

No matter what you’re shopping for, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to find it on Amazon. So it’s no surprise that the mega-retailer has a huge selection—more than 30,000 items—of outdoor furniture and accessories from a wide variety of brands. You can browse by category, material, price, and color, but there’s no easy way to see collections or similar styles next to each other on the results page. Whether you need patio seating, dining tables, or canopies and gazebos, there are bound to be plenty of options on Amazon that work for your outdoor space. We especially like this bistro set from Phi Villa that comes with two bar stools and a square high-top table. It’s a great choice if your home has a small deck or patio, but you still need somewhere to sit and eat outside. Another option we like is this wicker conversation set, which has a table, sofa, and two chairs that can be arranged in various ways on your patio.

Many items come with free standard shipping for orders over $25, but Prime members will appreciate that some furniture pieces are eligible for free two-day shipping. If you aren’t a member yet, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial that gets you immediate access to the shipping benefits and other perks. Most items are eligible for returns within 30 days, and it’s easy to contact customer service right on the website via chat.

It’s easy to spend hours browsing through Target’s outdoor furniture and decor. There are plenty of stylish statement pieces, simple dining sets, and small-space furniture to choose from. We love that you can shop by product category (like conversation sets and outdoor benches) or by style, with dedicated pages for light neutrals, dark neutrals, tropical looks, and coastal vibes.

Orders over $35 get free standard shipping, and there’s a small selection of outdoor furniture pieces that ship in two days. (Another way to get free shipping is by paying with a Target RedCard.) Depending on your location, you might even find that some of your favorite pieces are available for in-store pickup. Target’s return policy varies, but you’ll generally have at least 90 days to return or exchange your patio furniture either in-store or by mail (without any return shipping fees). For example, people who paid with a Target RedCard have an extra 30 days, and items from Target-owned brands are eligible for returns for an entire year.

Frontgate might be best known for its festive displays and extensive decor options for the holiday season, but the home and furniture retailer also offers high-end outdoor furniture. You can browse by collection, furniture type, and material—like aluminum, wicker, and teak—if you’re looking for something specific. Frontgate allows you to order free swatches of its patio furniture so you can get a better idea of the fabric before making your selection, which is helpful considering these are definitely investment pieces.

There’s a lot of outdoor furniture to choose from, including seating options, accent tables, and side-mount umbrellas that will make your backyard look like an outdoor oasis. These wicker chaise lounges are a popular choice because they’re contoured to offer more support for your body. There’s also this curved five-piece sofa set that’s made of durable aluminum and UV-resistant wicker, and it’s spacious enough for people who frequently entertain outdoors.

Walmart is a great place to shop for patio furniture on a budget because you’ll often find products on sale. You can browse by factors like style, material, and the number of seats, and you can even filter the results to show only marked-down patio furniture. There are more than 1,000 patio seating and conversation sets to browse through. One stylish piece of furniture that really caught our attention is this wicker egg chair with multiple cushions for extra comfort. Along with traditional seating options, Walmart also has decorative yet functional items, like this hanging steel porch swing designed to fit two people.

Many outdoor furniture items from Walmart come with free shipping, but you can always double-check before adding anything to your cart. Products sold and shipped by Walmart generally have a 90-day return policy, and you can even bring online orders back to the store for a refund.

Overstock is known for its large selection of furniture, kitchen, and home items at bargain prices—but that doesn’t mean its pieces lack in quality. The online retailer has an entire section devoted to outdoor essentials, which includes decor, accessories, lighting, umbrellas, storage, and, of course, furniture. Overstock has a handy guide on how to choose the right size patio table, with a chart that breaks it down by shape, dimensions, and seating capacity. You can even browse tables by the number of people they seat. We love the wide variety of outdoor furniture available, like this wicker daybed from Safavieh that has plenty of space for lounging in the backyard and this simple dining set that seats four people.

The Home Depot is a one-stop shop for all your backyard needs, including outdoor furniture and patio decor.

If you want a bit more customization, there’s even a section of the site where you can mix and match chairs and tables to create your own patio dining set.

Along with a variety of curated patio furniture collections, Crate & Barrel also has accessories for your outdoor space, like planters and rugs. The site has specific sections devoted to outdoor furniture for small spaces and outdoor entertaining. Many pieces from this retailer are often on backorder (especially bigger items like sectionals), which means they could take months to arrive at your doorstep. So if you can’t wait that long, you can shop directly from the section of patio furniture that ships quickly—just make sure you filter by your zip code. One piece we like is this oval lounge chair with plush white cushions, which is available in a loveseat style, too. There’s also this compact outdoor table that comes with a travel bag so you can bring it on picnics and beach days.

Crate & Barrel is another site that excludes most of its furniture from free shipping promotions, but there is a small selection of outdoor furniture that ships for free. Another way to avoid delivery fees is by selecting the option for free curbside pickup at a nearby store.

A department store may not be the first place that comes to mind when you’re looking for outdoor furniture, but Macy’s actually carries over 2,000 items in this category. You’ll find full outdoor dining sets, chaise lounge chairs, backyard accessories, and more, and the site will even tell you if an item’s available to see in person at a local showroom. This modern take on an outdoor rocking chair really caught our eye as did this counter-height fire pit and chairs set that’s perfect for happy hours on the patio.

Since Macy’s regularly offers reduced pricing, you can often find daily deals where prices are slashed by more than 50 percent. If you’re still concerned about making a huge dent in your bank account, you have two different options. Furniture orders of $499 or more are eligible for 12-month financing with the store’s credit card, and orders between $10 and $1,000 are eligible for interest-free payments through Klarna. Both options make it much more manageable to upgrade your patio furniture all at once.

While many people think of Lowe’s as a place to buy appliances and home improvement tools, it also offers a surprisingly robust selection of outdoor furniture with both patio sets and individual pieces. You can browse by price so it only shows items within your budget, and you can narrow it down even more by shopping directly from the sale section. We found plenty of options in the under-$600 patio set section, like this five-piece metal set that comes with swivel chairs.

In addition to patio furniture and decor, Lowe’s carries outdoor must-haves like heaters, umbrellas, privacy screens, and storage covers, which can help extend the life of your outdoor furniture. And if you’re getting ready for an outdoor party, you’ll find plenty of tents and gazebos to put your tables and chairs under. One example is this screened gazebo that will give your guests a shady, bug-free area to cool off in.

Polywood is an outdoor furniture brand that launched in 1990 with an Adirondack chair as its first product. The sustainable brand has since expanded to offer chaise lounges, dining sets, porch swings, and more. There’s this folding Adirondack chair that comes in bright colors as well as neutral hues and this 48-inch bench that’s perfect for front porches and gardens. Both are made with the brand’s signature material, which uses recycled plastics that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill or the ocean. You can purchase sample packs of the different materials if you aren’t sure about how they’ll look or feel. Pieces made with Polywood lumber are extremely durable and weather-resistant, so they can actually be left out in the winter. (But covering your outdoor furniture will make it easier to clean and ensure that it lasts as long as possible, according to the brand.)
