DH and I want to get a couch/loveseat and a couple chairs for our deck. We already have a nice dining set.

@runnerd: ours is very similar except the table doesn't have a wicker edge. And no ottoman; that is a cool feature!
What kind of material is your deck?

@runnerd: it looks pretty good in pictures! I thought it was engineered decking.

@runnerd: @mrsjyw: do you leave the cushions out all summer or do you bring them in at night or before it rains?
I would LOVE to have patio seating but am way too lazy to mess with bringing cushions in and out all the time!!!

@runnerd: That look similar to a set we are looking at. DH is trading in Diner (work cc) points and Marriott points for Home Depot gift cards so we don't have to pay for anything.
@mrsjyw: I just want to curl up on that and take a nap!

@locavore_mama: haha, you should see it in person! I really want to redo it, but I'm not sure how to strip paint off wood... Or if that's even possible.
@Mamaof2: I was really diligent about bringing the cushions in when it rained for the couple of months, then I just brought them in when we had tons of rain. They've held up well, but I've only had the set for one season.

@Mamaof2: our dining set is similar to this: http://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Patio-Furniture-Dining-Sets/N-5yc1vZbxdr
The sling material is sooo comfortable! No worrying about remembering to bring cushions in, drying time after wet, etc!

@Mamaof2: we leave it out all summer! only store away for winter time... they've held up really well for the past 5 years!

@runnerd: you can def strip it but I would just use a palm sander to be honest if it's not too big.

@Mamaof2: We bring our cushions in every time we use them. We have this for our dining chairs. We get really bad pollen here for months every spring, so we have to put everything up or they would be covered in pollen for months. So our chairs are empty day to day. Just pull the cushions out when we are going to be out there.
