We are new to The Sarasota/Bradenton area. We are looking for suggestions for buying good quality outdoor furniture, either new or used. Thanks in advance.

I have a brown wicker set loveseat table and ottoman. Retails for $2500 table needs glass insert and the cushions are fair could use a good cleaning or reupholstered but the furniture itself is in like new condition. I'm moving and looking to get rid of it..

If you're looking for absolute good quality, it's NOT in the big box stores, which carry a lot of foreign made garbage. Try to find US made stuff, like several manufacturers here in Manatee County such as Tropitone.

Ditto on this. Look at the floor models in the big-box stores and see how well they've held up.

I got my furniture at Patio Factory Super Center -- they have locations in Bradenton, Sarasota and Clearwater. They carry really upscale furniture lines; I thought it was a good sign that they were authorized dealers for those lines, even though I couldn't afford them. I bought a less-expensive (though still not cheap) wicker sectional with Sunbrella fabric -- it's as comfortable as my own living room furniture. I also got a metal bistro set with sling chairs that is exposed to the weather and has held up beautifully. Very helpful designers, too.
