Comparison: Best Ikea Outdoor Seating (Updated | Nov 9th)

Look at the cushion dimensions to ensure a proper fit, the fabric’s fade resistance and waterproof rating, and the foam density for comfort and resilience. Cushions with solution‑dyed fabric and a TPU‑coated reverse side, like the Favoyard sets, provide long‑lasting color and protection against rain. Also check for practical details such as hidden zippers, adjustable straps, and handles for easy removal.

Both brands use 300 GSM polyester with a waterproof coating, but Favoyard adds a TPU layer on the reverse side for extra water resistance. Idee‑home highlights high‑density foam with a 3‑inch thickness that retains shape well, while Favoyard’s 28D foam offers quick rebound and softness. Overall, Favoyard may edge out in UV protection with its 3‑year fade‑resistant claim.

ADDE chairs are lightweight, stackable, and very affordable, making them ideal for occasional seating or small gatherings. They lack the plush cushioning of a sofa set, so comfort is basic, but they are durable enough for occasional indoor/outdoor use. If you need a permanent, comfortable lounging area, a sectional like the Devoko set provides more seating, cushions, and weather‑resistant construction.

Yes, Favoyard offers multiple size options (22 × 24 in, 19 × 19 in, etc.) so you can select the one that best matches your chair or bench dimensions. Just measure the seat and backrest openings of your furniture before ordering to avoid a mismatch. The adjustable straps and hidden zipper make installation straightforward regardless of the size chosen.

Most cushions feature removable, machine‑washable covers or hidden zippers for easy cleaning; simply spot‑clean with mild soap and let air dry. The ADDE chairs can be wiped with a damp cloth and the screws tightened occasionally. For wicker or wood chairs like the FDW rattan set or the Vega acacia chair, wipe down with a soft brush and avoid harsh chemicals to preserve the finish.

ZARPMA cushions are designed for a specific IKEA Antilop highchair, offering a compact, padded cotton cover at a low price point. While they provide comfort for toddlers, they lack the heavy‑duty waterproofing and UV resistance of the larger Favoyard or Idee‑home cushions. If you need a budget‑friendly solution for a single chair, ZARPMA is a good fit; for broader patio use, invest in the larger, more robust cushion sets.

The Vega chair’s acacia wood frame is treated with a teak‑toned finish and the seat is hand‑woven nylon that dries quickly, making it reasonably resistant to moisture. However, prolonged exposure to heavy rain can affect wood over time, so applying a protective sealant and storing the chairs under cover during storms will extend their lifespan.

A full patio set often includes coordinated cushions, a coffee table, and modular components that can be rearranged, offering design cohesion and space flexibility. Look for sets with weather‑proof frames, easy‑clean fabrics, and sturdy assembly hardware. Buying a set like the Devoko sectional can be more cost‑effective than purchasing each piece separately, and it typically includes warranties for the frame and cushions.
