LaMode 7-Seater Modular Corner Garden Dining Set
Kettler · £1,749
Nice, but provisional
Seven seats, a table, aluminium frames and synthetic wicker, with a three-year guarantee, for £1,749. Per seat that is the cheapest way into outdoor lounging here, and the aluminium frame means nothing rusts and one person can rearrange it. Synthetic wicker is the compromise: it is genuinely weatherproof and it cannot be restored, so when the weave goes grey or splits in year eight there is no sanding it back.
- For
- A family who want to seat seven outdoors this summer without spending three thousand pounds.
- Not for
- Anyone buying furniture to hand on. This is a ten-year set, not a thirty-year one.

Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
