Garden chairs by material – wood, metal or plastic?
The material plays a significant role in the appearance, durability and maintenance requirements of your garden chairs. Each material has its own advantages, which pay off in different ways depending on usage and location. If you choose the right material for you, you will enjoy your garden furniture for many years.
Wood is a good choice for anyone who appreciates natural materials and timeless elegance. Types of hardwood such as teak, acacia or eucalyptus are naturally weather-resistant and develop a silver-grey patina over time – or retain their original colour if you oil them regularly. Garden chairs and patio chairs made of wood blend harmoniously into natural garden designs in brown and natural tones – however, you should plan for annual maintenance with suitable oil. If you value a robust wood look, it is worth taking a look at our garden chairs made of hardwood – here you will find models made from different types of wood.
Garden chairs made of metal and aluminium are a good option if stability with low weight is required. Aluminium does not rust and can be moved effortlessly – ideal if you want to flexibly arrange your patio chairs depending on the occasion. Powder-coated steel – often available in anthracite, white or grey – offers additional robustness but weighs considerably more. For a modern patio, aluminium garden chairs can be a suitable choice, such as a stackable garden chair made of aluminium in a simple design.
Plastic, rattan, polyrattan and wickerwork are suitable where ease of care is particularly important. Modern synthetic fibres such as polyrattan combine the elegant look of rattan with high UV and moisture resistance – with significantly less maintenance than natural wicker. Patio chairs made of rattan are also very popular. Whether in anthracite, beige or black – wicker garden chairs adapt to almost any colour scheme. A damp cloth is all you need for cleaning, and the chairs do not need to be brought indoors immediately after a rain shower. Wicker garden chairs in brown, anthracite or black blend into almost any outdoor area. Models made of polyrattan with a comfortable seat shell are especially popular.
Stackable, foldable or high-back – which design suits you?
Besides the material, the design plays a decisive role in the choice of your garden chairs. Consider in advance how much space you have, how often the chairs will be moved and what is particularly important to you – space-saving storage, quick assembly and disassembly, or maximum seating comfort.
Stackable garden chairs are particularly suitable for patios and balconies where space is limited. At the end of the season, six to eight chairs can be stacked on top of each other, taking up hardly more space than a single chair. Stackable chairs are also handy for spontaneous visitors – they are ready in seconds. In our range you’ll find stackable models in various materials, for example a stackable patio chair made of metal.
Foldable garden chairs are ideal if mobility is of primary importance. Whether for an evening on the balcony or a quick set-up for a party – folding chairs can be folded up and put away in a flash. Folding balcony chairs can be a practical solution, especially for smaller outdoor areas where flexibility is key. If you are looking for a lightweight, foldable balcony chair, you will find suitable models in our range made of wood, aluminium or plastic – also in weatherproof versions.
If you place particular value on comfort, you should opt for a high-back chair with adjustable backrest. The high backrest supports your neck and shoulders while you can adjust the inclination continuously to your favourite position. Models with armrests offer additional support – garden chairs without armrests look more delicate and can be more easily pushed under the table. For a classic seating group with individual chairs for four to six people, you will often need a table surface of 200 × 100 cm or more. Garden chairs in a set – whether as a set of 2, 4 or even a set of 6 – are often more economical than buying them individually.
Weatherproof garden chairs – what to look out for
Garden furniture is exposed to wind, rain and intense sunlight. To ensure that your garden chairs still look inviting after several years, it is worth taking a look at the weather resistance of the material you choose.
Aluminium and high-quality plastics such as polyrattan are regarded as particularly weatherproof – they do not absorb water and hardly fade. Weatherproof garden armchairs made from these materials can remain outdoors all year round without any problems. Wood, on the other hand, benefits from a protective cover in winter and annual maintenance with suitable oil or varnish. When purchasing, look out for UV-resistant coatings and rustproof connectors – then you will enjoy your garden chairs for a long time.
At the same time, the combination of weather resistance and stackability is worthwhile: weatherproof, stackable outdoor chairs can be stowed away to save space after the season and are ready for use again as soon as the sun comes out. Weatherproof garden chairs do not have to be expensive: even inexpensive models made of coated aluminium or plastic will last for many years with proper care. At the same time, we also stock high-quality, weatherproof garden armchairs in our range for those who place particular value on durability and comfort.
