Balcony furniture is more vulnerable to wind, rain and sun, so it is different from ordinary indoor furniture in the choice of materials. Generally speaking, wooden balcony furniture is people's first choice, but it is advisable to choose wood with high oil content, such as teak, which can prevent wood from brittle cracking due to expansion or looseness to the greatest extent.
People who like metal materials should choose painted and waterproof aluminum or alloy balcony furniture. This kind of material can best withstand outdoor wind and rain.
Furniture made of bamboo and rattan is relaxed and pleasant, but it should be maintained and wiped clean in time after it gets wet.
