Where do you live? What would the furniture need to endure in the way of exposure to the elements?

What would you like to use the furniture for?

How skilled are you at woodwork or other crafts needed to fabricate lawn furniture? (e.g., Adirondack chair)

These might be some points to consider in making this decision.

Hi, I live IN Tx, central Texas in Austin, so the weather is normalyy either humid, hot, or cold. Like right now it is winter time, and it is not too cold outside at all, it is more humid with a cool wind breeze out there.

But lately it has been quite humid... last night even my allergies started flaring up since there is lots of Cedar Pollen in this area.

Any suggestions?

:)

I would just go and look at a bunch of furniture and sit in it; then buy what you like.

I love my adirondack chairs. :oops: But nobody else does. I had to buy other chairs, or nobody would sit outside with me. :lol:
