When picking patio furniture, it needs to be within budget, comfortable, and durable. It also needs to have style.

As a first-time homeowner, I was looking for an affordable garden set. I found a stunning set at Habitat that met all my requirements and was on sale.

Habitat's Cali 4 Seater Metal Patio Set was originally £150, but was reduced to £120. I also earned £1.20 in cashback and 120 Nectar points.

The Cali set is made of steel with textilene seating. It has two chairs, a bench, and a low table. The colour is terracotta, not orange.

The assembly is beginner-friendly, but it's not a quick job. My partner and I built it in an hour and a half.

This patio set is bright and charming. It has a low table for drinks and snacks.

The screws and instructions were easy to follow. There's also a YouTube tutorial available.

The most difficult part of the build is adding tension rods and attaching the mesh seating.

The set is comfortable to sit on, with a slight recline. The table is handy for drinks and snacks.

For smaller spaces, there's a 2 Seater Round Bistro Table and Chairs at DUSK for £139.

For more seating, Dunelm has an 8 Seater Large Corner Set for £599.

The Habitat garden furniture set is currently £30 off.

Habitat has a Metal Sunlounger available for £45, with 20% off using the code GREEN20.

One person said the set 'looks good and sturdy' and 'brightens up the garden'.

Another person said the set is 'really nice looking and comfortable'. It's 'very light' and 'easy to move around'.

A third person wrote: 'Funky and contemporary patio set - gorgeous orange'.

Some people found it tricky to put together, and the colour may not be as expected.

One person said it's 'very comfortable' but 'a bit of a faff to put the sofa together'.

People are generally pleased with the Cali set, saying it's 'beautiful and comfortable'.

A customer said: 'Such a gorgeous set and looks so much more expensive in real life'.

Habitat's Cali 4 Seater Metal Patio Set is stylish, comfortable, and sturdy. It won't break the bank and is a great focal point.
