Just a small word of caution (which shouldn't need to be said, but . . .):

Make sure you measure your lanai carefully, then measure your desired furniture! I impulsively bought a good-looking dining table and six-chair set, but found the chairs, especially, were too big to pull out from the table to sit without being a contortionist! I finally slightly re-oriented the table, and put only 4 chairs at it, but it's still not really right.

And, it defeated the purpose of being able to seat six - which is important when I have guests!

After 40-plus years of not having anything even remotely resembling a lanai, I was so excited to have one. Ah, well, live and learn!
