I’m looking for an outdoor sectional couch for our deck. A friend has a faux wicker one from Overstock that they like and I’ve enjoyed sitting on it too, but theirs is out of stock and it’s impossible to gauge what is going to be comfortable/decently sized for normal size people/not going to fall apart too quickly. I know a set made like that won’t last as long as polywood, etc. but I think it will suit us for now if we can find one that isn’t terrible. If you or someone you know has a specific couch that is tried and true, please drop a link below!!
Criteria:
Must have arms on the end seats (so many don’t!)
Reasonable height seat backs
I’d love one that can be arranged in a U shape, but I’ll take an L shape with ample seating too
Neutral color scheme preferred (for example, I’m looking at some on Overstock that are darker gray wicker with light gray cushions)
Decent, reasonably comfortable cushions also preferred. We’ll gladly get a cover for it to protect the cushions but if it happens to have Sunbrella cushions or something else that will stand up to the elements a bit, that is also a plus.
I don’t know the exact size I’m looking for but maybe a 7-12 seater? We have good space on our deck, so I’m sure either will fit as long as the couch is modular like others I’m looking at
Pennsylvania, US weather but again, we will use a cover with it
If you own an ikea sectional please tell me your experience. We are looking into getting a kivik. I don’t love the upholstery options, though.
I’ve spent MONTHS searching for a sectional—specifically “low toxic” and I’m exhausted haha we can’t afford 10 k for a fully latex/wood sectional right now and with little babies I don’t know if I want to spend $$$ on a couch that is going to be used and abused by toddlers and dogs for the foreseeable future.
