Gas barbecues are an effective, easy way to cook food, and my recommendation as long as you have the room for one. Maintenance on metal furniture is also very easy, a simile alloy cleaner is all that will be needed, if a glass or acrylic top is included you may require an additional cleaner or surface protector but nowhere near the time taken to treat wooden furniture sets. Many have the additional option of a grill but as with fire pits these are not as effective as a real BBQ. Wood is also a flexible material meaning modifications such as extending or foldable sections work without the issues that more rigid, fragile materials have.

Chimneas are you final option, they are an attractive addition to any classically designed garden but also suffer from the problem of combustion by-products. They tend to burn solid fuels, such as wood or charcoal which give a warm and peaceful feel an aroma, perfect for small family or friend gatherings.

Plastic furniture also makes it very easy to arrange a large party as it is easy and cheap to construct large sets and easy to clean afterwards. Metal sets are often made of a specially formatted alloy that is resistant to weather conditions and will not rust.

Outdoor Heating

There are only really a few options with regards to outdoor heating, these are patio heaters, fire pits and chimineas. Plastic also require very little maintenance and will not need treating every year. Due to having solid fuel you will need to employ more advanced tactics to light and warm your barbecues before you begin cooking. You will also loose the control of the flame that you have with gas barbecues but with time and practice charcoal barbecues can be mastered and take no more effort than a standard gas model. The great thing about metal tables is that they can also harbour parasols and some accessories and can fit in fantastically with other stainless steel garden accessories such as patio heaters and bbqs. You have 3 basic choices for your furniture; metal, wood or plastic.
