After 6 weeks of waiting for approvals from the powers that be T&D have finally started work on expanding our Lanai another 12 feet out. In under two weeks I will have three times the space i have now and want to add a round table and chairs as well as some additional seating. Where is a good place to buy lanai furniture that will not midew and will last. The existing furniture was bought at Southern Lifestyles and was expensive but it is great, dries quickly and is treated to withstand mildew and the elements. Do not want to pay their prices for the new furniture though so your suggestions would be welcome.

BTW - T&D has impressed me with their professionalism and thoroughness. The best part is that you only pay them at the end of the job. They may not be the cheapest but they do inspire confidence and I know they will be around for a while.

There is an outdoor furniture store off of the Turnpike towards Orlando, exit 227 (very easy on/off -- just take the exit and first right, it's right up the driveway). Sorry, forget the name of it. It's not cheap, but it is cheaper than Southern Lifestyles. The fabric is all sunbrella product, doesn't fade in the sun and everything there is high quality.

We purchased our table and chairs for lanai from I think it is Corals Casuals over on 441 in the same shopping center as Best Buy. The product is American Made and we are very pleased with it.

The name of the place off the turnpike is PALM CASUAL.. Great place. You can select your furniture have it delivered for free and you have a 30 day period to return it for any reason. Great customer service. They simply donot sell you something but ask how you will be using your furniture (inside or out, will it be exposed to direct sunlight etc) All these factors impact the fabric selection they willl recommend.

Stuart Marshall is the manager and there number is 407-905-0078. Palm Casual has a weekly ad in the Village Sun....no sales they just alert people in TV to their presence.

I second - or third - the vote on Palm Casual. Great customer service, great product, and a fair price.
