Teak outdoor furniture was my late wedding present to myself. Many years after marrying, I realized that I detested our plastic patio furniture! Everybody else in the neighborhood had this stuff, and it was so easy to pick up at the local department store, I just didn't think much about it.

It was also cheap. I assure you, this is the only advantage of plastic outdoor furniture. In every other way, though, it's a pain in the butt. In the summer, it sticks to your skin. In a storm, the wind blows it away.

The Difference of Teak Outdoor Furniture

In fact, I'll wager that you're more likely to lose plastic yard furniture to a strong wind than to a thief. Even thieves have better taste than that! On the other hand, when I discovered teak outdoor furniture, a whole new world opened up to me.

Teak outdoor furniture is made from the beautiful, durable wood that made Scandinavian furnishings famous. Teak is one of the most water-resistant woods known to man, so you don't have to worry about the rain ruining your investment. Plus, teak is so solid and substantial that you won't ever have to worry about it blowing away!
