Shopping for outdoor furniture [1] is never easy. There are a lot of factors to consider — like the materials it's made of — that stand in the way of your purchase. Sun and weather can destroy outdoor furniture as quickly as a season, which is why quality goes a long way. Outdoor furniture should be highly durable [2], and Sunbrella fabric (if you haven't heard) is hailed for its longevity. Furniture pieces made with Sunbrella can be equated with easy cleanup and an extended lifespan as its fabric is all-weather-resistant and prevents mold and mildew from growing. (A nice touch on days it rains unexpectedly and you've left your cushions outside.)
If you're looking for high-quality outdoor furniture pieces that will last you seasons to come, a good place to start is seeing if it includes Sunbrella. Ahead, shop our favourite outdoor furniture picks that have Sunbrella fabric.
