7 Piece Acacia Patio Dining Set for 6, 63 Inch Table with Covered 1.97 Inch Umbrella Hole and 6 Wide Seat Armchairs

Outdoor armchairs are often built to a width rather than to a person. Sixteen or seventeen inches between the arms is common, and anyone in a coat or simply broad across the hips spends the meal wedged.

The manufacturer calls it a spacious seat and publishes the figure: 18.5 in across, with curved armrests rather than square edges. That is a genuine inch or two over a lot of wooden armchairs at this price.

Six chairs, one table

A 63 in by 32 in slatted acacia table with six armchairs. Everything including the legs is solid acacia, and every chair carries a cream cushion on a slatted seat with a slatted back above it. Two chairs sit down each long side with one at each end, which is how six places fit on 63 inches.

The three things about the chair

The maker picks out an ergonomic backrest, smooth curved armrests and a spacious seat, and their own line is that it lets you enjoy the meal without feeling cramped. The seat measures 18.5 in across.

Hole and cover

Two pieces: a cover that sits flush in the top and a wooden block underneath to protect the hole itself. The maker's note says an umbrella base is needed, and neither the umbrella nor the base is included.

Six cushions to keep track of

Sponge filling, a washable zipped cover and fixing straps that tie each cushion to its chair. With six seats the straps matter, because six loose pads on a windy afternoon is six trips round the garden.

The published seat width on every chair, which the manufacturer calls spacious and which most of the gripe about armchairs comes down to.

Published for each armchair, with 165 lb given for the tabletop as the maximum weight.

A cover closes the hole and a wooden block protects it. Umbrella and base are not included.

The manufacturer lists DIY painting as an option, which is only realistic on a set with no metal frame in it.

Gaps through the seat and the back, which the maker describes as enhancing breathability.

Fixing straps hold every cushion to its chair, and the covers unzip so they can be washed.

63 in by 32 in at 30 in high, slatted so rain drains rather than sitting across the surface.

Shaped rather than square edged, which is what stops a wooden arm digging into a forearm.

Ships from a Canadian warehouse. Free shipping on orders over $150. Some remote areas, PO boxes and surcharge regions may be excluded or cost extra.

Return within 14 days of purchase, unused, in original condition and packaging.

Covered directly by the manufacturer under their warranty terms for material and manufacturing defects.

An 18.5 in seat between curved arms is the difference between settling in and perching for an hour.

Six matching armchairs around 63 in of slatted acacia, two down each side and one at each end.

An all wood set takes an exterior paint or stain cleanly, which the maker calls out themselves.

Slats through the seats, the backs and the tabletop mean a shower runs off rather than sitting on the wood.

What we stand behind

• Table and chair measurements and both maximum weights are read from the product's own dimension drawing.
• The 1.97 in umbrella hole figure is the manufacturer's, and their note says an umbrella base is needed and is not included.
• One photograph on this listing shows a bench at the table. No bench is part of this seven piece order.
• Their care notes are printed rather than buried: oil the wood regularly and avoid leaving it outdoors in the rain.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Is a bench included?

No. This order is one table and six armchairs, which is the seven pieces. One photograph on the listing shows a bench alongside the table, and that is not part of it.

How wide are the seats?

Eighteen and a half inches across, which the manufacturer publishes and calls spacious. For comparison, a lot of wooden outdoor armchairs run 16 in to 17 in between the arms.

Will six adults fit at a 63 inch table?

Two down each long side and one at each end works out at about 31.5 in of edge per side place, which is generous. Three a side instead would leave about 21 in each, below what everyday dining guides call comfortable.

Can I paint it?

The manufacturer lists DIY painting as one of its features, and with no metal frame anywhere there is nothing to mask off. Sand lightly, prime and use an exterior grade finish. No paint type is specified by the maker.
