Popular Metal Types for Outdoor Dining Sets

Aluminium

Aluminium is lightweight and rust-resistant, making it a popular choice for outdoor dining sets. Often powder-coated for added durability, it’s ideal for those who want easy-to-move furniture.

Aluminium works well for recliners and padded chair sets, offering comfort and longevity with minimal upkeep.

Wrought Iron

Wrought iron is heavier and highly durable, perfect for rustic garden designs. Its weight provides stability in windy areas, but it requires occasional rust-proofing. Wrought iron is ideal for those seeking an elegant, long-lasting option with a traditional touch.

Stainless Steel

For a sleek, modern look, stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion. Suitable for both round and rectangular dining tables, it offers a stylish and low-maintenance choice, especially for contemporary outdoor spaces.

Steel

Steel dining sets are more affordable but need proper weather-proofing to prevent rust. When treated correctly, steel is a durable and budget-friendly option for outdoor furniture.

Composite Materials

Composite materials combine metal with weather-resistant elements for a durable, low-maintenance option. These sets offer the strength of metal and the ease of care of synthetic materials, perfect for those seeking longevity with minimal effort.

What to Look for When Buying a Metal Dining Set

Material Durability and Resistance

Comparing aluminium, steel, wrought iron, and stainless steel is essential. Aluminium is lightweight and rust-resistant, while steel is sturdy but needs proper weather-proofing. Wrought iron is durable and has a classic look but requires regular rust prevention.

Composite materials combine metal and weather-resistant elements for added durability. Opt for powder-coated finishes to prevent rust and ensure longevity.

Seating Comfort and Design

Comfort is essential when selecting an outdoor dining set. For additional relaxation, consider padded chairs or recliners. If space is at a premium or storage is an issue, stackable or foldable chairs provide a practical solution, offering comfort while being easy to store when not in use.

Space Considerations

Measure your outdoor area to select the right size, such as a 4-seater for smaller spaces or a 6-seater or 8-seater for larger areas. For flexibility, consider an extending table like the 6-10 seat Universal Extending Dining Table.

Ease of Maintenance

Opting for materials that require minimal upkeep will save time in the long run. Aluminium and stainless steel are excellent low-maintenance choices, as they are rust-resistant and easy to clean.

Wrought iron, while robust, may need more care to prevent rust, so be prepared for a little extra maintenance if you choose this option.

Weatherproofing and Care

Use weather-resistant covers to protect your dining set during harsh weather. Cleaning will vary by material—follow the care instructions for stainless steel, wrought iron, or aluminium to keep your set in top condition.
