Argos Garden Furniture

Whether you live in a city apartment or a more spacious suburban home, adding comfortable and stylish furniture to your garden is a great way to extend your living space outside. In fact, you don't even need to have an actual garden in order to create a welcoming and relaxing outdoor space.

If you only have a concrete terrace to call your outdoor space, you can still make it work by getting smaller sets of garden furniture to cozy it up. You'll find that the extra space will be of great use when you are entertaining guests, especially when the weather is ideal. For larger backyards, bigger garden sets are recommended, preferably with a variety of seating options for when you decide to have a garden party or barbecue.

Argos has a relatively new line of garden furniture in an adequate array of options. Their range covers different types of materials, and particularly a good number of pieces made of hardwood. Hardwood is a great material for outdoor furniture because they last for quite some time in different kinds of weather, plus they are very comfortable and classy without being too expensive. Argos' hardwood garden furniture are either made of acacia or mixed FSC harvested wood.

You can choose your Argos garden furniture from hardwood designs depending on what you need for your outdoor space. Their Sienna line features very simple designs that can fit in any kind of style you are going for. The Sienna Director set that includes a table and four director chairs is a good choice for small, casual outdoor spaces. The Madison sets, which come in 4 and 8 seaters, also have a streamlined look but are a bit more expensive. For the extra cost, however, you will be getting more solidly built furniture with thicker cuts of wood. They are also very easy to clean and can withstand the weather year-round because of their teak-oil finish.

For a more elegant look, you can choose between the Buckingham and Richmond garden sets. The Buckingham 6 seater patio set features very comfortable highback armchairs and a table with a Lazy Susan. You can order it with or without a parasol and cushions. The Richmond 6 seater set, meanwhile, has an even more stylish design at a lower price. The chairs come with cushions and an octagonal table with a parasol. If you have a pool, you can pair this set with a couple of Richmond multi-position loungers. The Richmond line uses wood that is pre-treated with a preservative, which has to be reapplied every 2 years.

A good thing about these hardwood garden pieces is that they come packed flat and can therefore can be conveniently folded and put away if necessary. Naturally, though, there is some assembly required.

A well furnished garden can be an ideal space to spend quality time with your friends and family either hanging around the swimming pool on Sundays, playing board games, or having breakfast or brunch. Or if you often find yourself needing to de-stress, a good-looking garden space can also serve as a relaxing retreat where you can collect your thoughts over a warm cup of tea.
