时尚女人。可爱孩子。美丽家居。男人爱车: Get Ready for Spring With Our Favorite Outdoor Furniture and Decor

Shopping Editorial Director

Spring is officially here, so it's time to start thinking about how to furnish your outdoor space—whether you have a sprawling patio, covered front porch, or tiny balcony. We've tested quite a few outdoor furniture sets, as well as other decor essentials like outdoor rugs, Adirondack chairs, and patio umbrellas. And of course, we're always keeping an eye out for deals on best-selling outdoor lights, decorative throw pillows, and other cozy touches.

A patio set with two chairs and a side table is a versatile choice that should be on anyone's wishlist. We love the Devoko 3-Piece Patio Furniture Set, which is made of durable rattan that's weatherproof and attractive. After testing it, we named it our favorite budget outdoor furniture set, as it held up perfectly in all types of weather conditions and costs less than $100. It's also the perfect size for just about any outdoor space, whether you want a casual conversation area by the pool or primary seating for a smaller porch or deck.

For people who take lounging seriously, an outdoor loveseat and ottoman set is right up your alley. We recommend this set from the Better Homes & Gardens line at Walmart (Better Homes & Gardens is owned by Real Simple's parent company, Dotdash Meredith). Stylish, comfy, and complete with stain-resistant cushions, it's an ideal choice for lazy afternoons spent enjoying the sunshine.

If you'd rather make small decor changes to your space, there are plenty of options to consider. A durable outdoor rug can add some warmth to your concrete flooring, or make your outdoor dining area feel more complete. Good lighting is key for eating dinner al fresco, and solar-powered string lights provide a warm glow—no outlet needed. And don't forget some waterproof pillows, which will make metal or wood chairs much more comfortable.
