I am looking to buy a high-end lanai set, prefer aluminum table or consider tile (no glass or iron tops) and a minimum of 4 swivel chairs (or maybe 6). Would like a round table, or possibly an oval one, but not a huge table. Hoping to find someone that is moving and needs to sell a really nice patio/lanai set in like new condition. Please message me if you have one to sell. Thank you in advance.

FYI, Lowes did have a sale on a seven piece tile table set that was smaller but similar to what I had for $699.

If you want high end outdoor furniture that will last the test of time from Florida heat and humidity, look closely at poly wood patio furniture. There are also some decent knockoff imitations at a more affordable price point.

We bought an outdoor wicker Lshape from Palm Casual in 2010. In 2014 we added a contrasting fabric loveseat that matches the original.
In 2023 our lanai space doubled and wanted to add to the Lshape, but thought it would be impossible. Because PC make their own products, they matched the same material for cushions even 13 years later it’s hard to tell what was 2010 furniture and what was added. One won’t find that at any other retailer. We do have Plywood on the pool deck, which does very well in the hot sun and rain. But polywoods weight makes it difficult to pull out a chair just to sit down. We have since changed to the newer polywood style that has outdoor fabric for seats, making more comfortable and half the weight

We are BIG fans of Polywood, especially their "deep seating" options. Even our bright red Adirondacks have not faded in the hot/humid East Tennessee summers.
However, for what it sounds like you are seeking I would consider Frontgate, Ballard Designs, Lagoon (lagoonfurniture.com), or Seaside Casual (seasidecasual.com). Hope you find that which you seek!

The chairs in our lanai are light and easy to move around. We also have two chairs and ottomans in front of our house. Since our house faces east, it is very nice to sit in front and read in the evening. Lightweight chairs would probably get blown around if we had them in front of our house, so we have the heavyweight polywood chairs instead. |

We got our high-end set from this place on Eagles Nest Rd. Hope you find someone selling one.

For higher end, Patio Style in Winter Park is very nice and has an excellent show room. Buying patio furniture there is like buying living room furniture used to be. They have a wide selection of fabrics for all their furniture. Family owned and nice to deal with.

Also, regardless of the manufacturer, there are 2 things to insist upon if you want outdoor furniture that will last: Aluminum frames, and Sunbrella fabrics. Steel frame furniture will rust, and dissolve into junk in a few years. Sunbrella fabrics have a proven record of withstanding harsh sunshine and all types of weather for many years. Cry once. |

Would recommend Palm Casual. We have Cast Aluminum furniture with sunbrella cushions made by them. Had a huge selection of fabric to pick from! It's been 6 years and still all look brand new!
