Finding patio furniture that meets both you and your family’s needs requires careful consideration. By accurately measuring the space you have to work with and considering standard heights of tables and chairs, you can create an outdoor area where everyone will be welcome and can have fun together.
This four-piece wicker set, which boasts over 12,000 positive reviews, includes three chairs and an ottoman that serves as both seating and a coffee table.
Seating Options
There are various options when it comes to patio furniture and seating, ranging from standard dining height chairs and tables, slightly higher options suitable for gathering or counter space, bar tables with matching tall outdoor stools or lounge chairs, sofas and loveseats that provide different degrees of comfort for different body types (including tall people ).
When selecting seating designs, look for designs that can accommodate all family members and guests no matter their body type or size. Chairs featuring back and neck support may provide extra support for taller guests who might otherwise not receive enough from lower-back furniture; similarly, seating with wide arms gives taller visitors ample room to rest their hands comfortably.
Choose from standard dining, gathering or counter height tables measuring 30 inches high to pair with any variety of dining chairs, or go even higher with bar table heights that range between 36-42 inches and tall outdoor stools or chairs for even more dining possibilities. Higher tables offer great views over deck railings while providing an ideal spot for meals or entertainment with friends.
Lounge chairs, sofas and love seats with seat depths between 20 to 24 inches are excellent choices for relaxing, reclining and entertaining guests. Deep seating designs with high-density interior cushions offer ample upright support and time-tested comfort across a range of heights. To elevate the experience even further, pair this furniture with an outdoor ottoman to enhance full body relaxation.
Adjustable Chairs
When shopping for patio furniture that accommodates taller family members or guests, it’s essential to take seat height and design into account. From stylish outdoor dining sets to casual balcony seating areas, there are options available that fit every taste and space imaginable. Choose between different chair heights as well as ergonomic designs that alleviate discomfort caused by sitting for extended periods.
Standard dining chairs usually measure 30 inches from floor to seat. While this patio furniture may suit most people’s needs, taller back chairs or adjustable designs may offer additional support and help alleviate back and shoulder ache after lengthy meals with family or friends.
Counter-height chairs are another popular choice for patio dining, standing approximately at eye level when seated – ideal for smaller patios and balconies. Backless stools or models with swivel seats make it easier for taller family members and guests to enter and exit these chairs easily.
Bar chairs are another ideal way to entertain taller family members or guests, standing around the same height as bar tables and often featuring sleek silhouettes that suit contemporary or modern decorating styles. Some come equipped with footrests that allow diners to extend their legs at an optimal angle during meals.
Ergonomics should always come first when purchasing large and tall patio furniture. When considering materials for this purchase, look for high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or teak designs made to withstand repeated use – these durable materials won’t splinter, rust or crack over time and they are especially good in sun exposure situations.
Bar Chairs
If you enjoy entertaining, bar height patio furniture is an excellent way to set the scene for an amazing event. These versatile pieces allow you to unwind at your favorite outdoor bar as the sun sets over the water while sipping cocktails from bar height patio furniture chairs that don’t sit too high and make it easy for your guests to access counter or tabletop surfaces.
There is an assortment of patio bar chairs to choose from, with different swivel and stationary styles offering comfortable outdoor seating. Furthermore, traditional earth tones as well as modern neutral hues can be found – some featuring stain-resistant fabric for optimal results in backyard environments.
Before buying furniture of either counter or bar height, you need to understand their differences as this will allow you to select the appropriate chair for your space. Stools typically range between 24″ and 27″, with counter chairs being 33-34″, while barstools/tables/countertops usually stand higher at around 40-42″, offering you plenty of seating options for different spaces.
AllModern’s Huron Patio Bar Stool features a square seat with mid-back height backrest crafted from hand dyed ropes in eight unique color options, for an eye-catching chair designed by Florida Seating that is resistant to UV light, water, mildew and rust.
This chair offers the convenience of swivel seating, and comes in either backless or with arms for minimalist looks. Furthermore, its frame comes finished in dark bronze for additional aesthetic options.
Most patio bar stools are constructed from aluminum or wrought iron with durable finishes that resist rust, corrosion, and weather damage. This furniture won’t warp as easily in humid climates and it’s easier to keep clean; simply wipe it down with soapy water or damp cloth to wipe down its surface for regular maintenance. You might even come across models made with tougher metals such as 304 stainless steel or marine grade aluminum!
Storage
Tall patio furniture comes equipped with various storage solutions to meet the needs of both you and your guests. When searching for outdoor storage solutions that are secure and weather-tolerant for year-round storage of backyard or patio supplies. Deck boxes are one of the most popular solutions, featuring trunk-like trunks which can store everything from extra cushions to gardening tools or pool toys.
For metal patio furniture that cannot be folded up and stored away for winter use, consider covering it with a commercial cover that protects it from snow, freezing rain and wildlife – while solid wood or wicker pieces can use a large tarp as another measure to safeguard against the elements during their off-season stay.
