Better Homes and Gardens Aubrey Three-Piece Stationary Chat Set
WALMART
"I love the modern and chic styling of the Aubrey Chairs," gushes interior designer Sarah Storms at Styled by Storms. "They are the perfect mix of clean lines with the rust-resistant, powder-coated metal frames and so stylish with the fun black and white cabana stripes. The style would look great not only outside on your patio, but also poolside or in a covered sunroom. If you are using this outside, don't forget your fringed umbrella to finish off your Palm Royale look, and the white Ventura Fringe Umbrella perfectly fits the bill."

If you're limited on space, interior designer Jessica Dorling at Dorling Design Studio suggests opting for one statement item. "This piece embodies everything I love in good design: function and form," she explains. "It's super stylish, offering the flexibility to be set up as either a settee or a chic daybed chaise. It would be perfect for a balcony or a smaller footprint patio and provides great options for entertaining or enjoying a lazy Sunday afternoon with a good book.”

Gaia Guidi Filippi, principal and creative director of Gaia G Interiors, thinks the chairs in this bistro set "are a super chic addition to an outdoor patio area." "I absolutely love the two-tone look and the trellis detailing on the sides and back," she raves. "Patio furniture so often looks the same and these are so unique. I would set them apart from the main outdoor seating area and have them be their own conversation moment with an interesting shaped concrete stool in between."
Better Homes and Gardens Tarren Five-Piece Wicker Conversation Set
WALMART
Fine artist and interior designer Eryn Oruncak says this five-piece conversation set is a "pleasant surprise" in the collection. "It jumped right out to me with its cool, urban flavor," she explains, adding that it "would be a go-to set" for her design projects in the city. "I also like that it sits as it looks—the low seat height puts you in a chill mood for hanging with friends."

Oruncak also appreciates the "open and airy" Lilah Four-Piece Conversation Set. She emphasizes that "it's perfect for a beach house or by the pool. The open weave makes this set versatile; it can accommodate any style and any color palette. With its low profile, the relaxed set makes it too easy to linger a little longer."
Better Homes and Gardens Bellamy Four-Piece Conversation Set
WALMART
"The Bellamy has the quintessential vibe of classic outdoor seating," Oruncak continues. "The premium cushions create a magnet that makes you just want to sit down. I also love how the weave of the wicker combines so well with the soft curves of the frame. I could style this set in so many different ways for the spring, make a few tweaks for the summer, and then switch out the throw pillows for fall. You could use this set from April through November—that's why it's a great buy."

WALMART
If you don't have room for the conversation set, then Oruncak suggests opting for the set of two Bellamy Club Lounge Chairs. She notes, "The gray cushions give a softness that brings a relaxed energy to the space even before you sit. I would get two of these sets to make the perfect four-chair configuration on a square patio, or have them in a line on a long porch."

WALMART
Palm Beach-based interior designer Shani Core says this four-piece set "would be just as at home in a Cape Cod style home in the Northeast as it would in a Southern traditional home in Georgia or a coastal home in Florida. With clean lines and neutral cushions, this set will coordinate with many design styles and would be fun to dress up with a set of new pillows in a fun color.

Core adds that "this bistro set is the perfect complement to any porch or patio needing a touch of class. From the elegant, curved back detailing to the durable, powder-coated wrought iron steel frame with spring motion (which I love as the chairs double as rockers) this set brings high style at a very reasonable price. At $347 for all three pieces, including red outdoor seat cushions which coordinate with almost every color palette, this set is a must-have for the summer.”
Better Homes and Gardens River Oaks Swivel Gliders Set of Two
WALMART
"Two pairs of the River Oaks Swivels paired with their beautiful Copper Firepit spontaneously creates a chic s'mores party for four," describes artist and interior designer Elizabeth Drake. "A fire is perfect for cool spring evenings when we all want to entertain outdoors. I prefer the tan wicker with beige cushions; the natural colors blend with colors of the garden. Copper, being a natural material, complements the wicker while it's striking, reflective quality makes for an attractive focal point of the setting."
