Know any good resources online for patio/lawn furniture? I'm looking for a couple of nice chairs that recline with a matching ottomans for our yard. Can be made of metal or wood.
You could try Walmart. My DH and the kids got me this set there last year for my birthday. I love it and we get compliments on it all the time.
The set includeed the oval table, 6 reclining chairs, 2 ottomans and a small round side table. We got the umbrella separately at a local close out store.
You could also try the websites for Home Depot and Lowe's.
We bought a great set (not reclining however) at Costco. Stone table top, etc. I'd also suggest Plow & Hearth catalog. They have great adirondiak (sp?) chairs and ottomans at a more reasonable price than I've seen elsewhere.
I got ours (high-end) from a tiny Mom-n-Pop place in the 'burbs of Minneapolis. It's made by Tropitone and ours is from the Sling Collection: Somerset.
Try Ikea. We got our wooden furniture there, here's a bad pic:
We had the hardest time finding a larger table or one one with a leaf, and this one has fold-down sides that makes the table 120" or so long. We also have a bench that goes with the set. We could seat up to 10 people at it if necessary.
I just saw you were looking for a living-room type set. Ikea also has those, too. Well, they did. They might not be restocking, and it looks like there's not much left on the website. But it's worth a shot if you have one near you.

My FI and I have found some patio furniture that we just love at Lowes. We are afraid to buy it right now because we don't know if there is a better time for sales and such. Does anyone have exp. with this. Would we be better off to wait to buy the stuff. Is it likely to go one sale sometime between now and summer or should we just take the plunge??
I say wait also. Summer items tend to go on sale at the begining of spring and at the end of summer....so I'd wait. My DH got me a great set for my birthday last year, and he got it on sale (in May).
We got our patio set for a steal last summer (right before the 4th of July) from Target. We held out and held our breath that it would still be in stock, but it paid off because we got a $700 set for about $250. We got our table for even less than the rest of the stuff because it was the only one left and was the floor model.
