Our Most-Loved Outdoor Spaces, Curated

For year-round outdoor use, look for powder-coated steel or aluminum frames paired with high-density cushions, or all-weather wicker over a steel base. Several pieces in our Best Sellers collection — like the 6-Piece Steel Frame Conversation Set with Swivel Rockers — are specifically built for all-weather comfort. Always store cushions during extended periods of heavy rain or snow to extend their life.

A good rule of thumb is to size your umbrella or pergola to match or slightly exceed your seating footprint. A 10x13 ft rectangle cantilever umbrella covers a large dining or lounge arrangement, while a 16x12 ft aluminum pergola provides 192 sq ft of shade — enough for a full outdoor living setup. Think about the sun's angle in the afternoon, which is when shade matters most on most patios.

Pergolas are open-structure frameworks — great for creating a defined outdoor room with partial shade, especially with a retractable canopy. Gazebos feature a full enclosed or semi-enclosed roof, making them better suited for year-round use and protection from rain. If you want flexibility and a modern look, a pergola works well; if you want a dedicated outdoor retreat that handles the elements, a hardtop gazebo is the stronger choice.
