I'm really fed up with my old garden furniture, so it's decided, this year, I'm changing it! To be exact, my current garden furniture still helped me out a lot. At the time I didn't have a lot of money, and above all I had much higher purchasing priorities, I had just moved into my current house.
So it was an end of series that I had bought very inexpensively because it was on sale the last weeks of the season, and that was 6 years ago. The super classic thing:white plastic table and chairs. The problem is that as the summers go on, the plastic is no longer "smooth", it is gray as if it had been baked in the sun. Beyond the fact that it is not very aesthetic, it is above all impossible to clean properly. The slightest wine stain remains encrusted forever. Not to mention the two chairs that broke just below the backrest. No harm and a good laugh the day it happened, but hey…
In short, it's the year to change it and as it's budgeted, I'm doing it in advance, because you can't say that it's a day to put your nose outside when I write this post.
Already, we had to come to an agreement with my wife. Together, we immediately ruled out plastic (or similar material). We were more on a wooden living room with glass. In terms of budget, not too many constraints, above all we had to like it.
So here I am surfing to, first of all, identify the models. And there, it must be said, there is food and drink. Between the price comparators who compare I don't really know what else, the e-commerce behemoths, like this famous American with whom, for nothing in the world I wouldn't spend a penny, and the other sites where we don't understand well how to order. In short, quite a waste of time.
Admittedly, it's not really the season, but we thought we were going to visit garden centers and other specialized stores to do some scouting. Well we took it in the sense that it is much easier to realize the style, and above all, the advice of the sellers has been rather valuable to us.
And precisely, contrary to our initial wish, we found a "style" that thrilled us, and it is "plastic". No, in fact, it's not, it's part of the new resin materials, much more resistant than our first white garden furniture. One of the sellers reassured us on this point.
From the moment we agreed on the model and the style, the search turned out to be much easier and it was in the end on Emob4garden that we found our garden furniture, because yes, in terms of budget, there are deals to be had on the net. The order is placed, all that remains is to wait for the delivery and especially for the good weather to return.
The moral of this story is that e-commerce is great, and even more so when you combine research with traditional stores to really understand the product.
