The best deals on outdoor patio furniture as Memorial Day approaches you’re still stuck at home

The coronavirus pandemic has kept people stuck inside their homes for two months, and while some states are relaxing lockdown rules, it's a good bet you'll spend a lot of time at home this summer.

As Memorial Day approaches and the weather improves, the temptation to get outside increases by the day. Spending time on the patio or deck to get some fresh air or sun is a smart middle ground between leaving the house and being locked inside.

Upgrading the backyard, patio or deck is a fun way to kill time outside, too. Kohl's, Amazon, Home Depot, ManhattanHomeDesign and Wayfair are great places to find new outdoor furniture to renew your backyard's aesthetic.

Here are some of the better deals right now on outdoor furniture for the patio or deck:

Dining Sets

Change the scenery for family dinners by taking them outside. Get a new dining set for the deck, like this 5-piece Hudson set that's 10% off at ManhattanHomeDesign, or this 7-piece set at Wayfair, which is holding outdoor furniture sales as summer approaches.

Grill

Keep the entire family dinner outdoors by cooking it outside, too. Get a new grill, like this Weber propane grill or this Char-Griller charcoal grill, for a fresh start to your outdoor cooking.

Chairs

After finishing up a satisfying meal, you'll want to find somewhere comfortable to digest. Get new chairs to settle down in, like this Sonoma swivel chair that's almost $200 off at Kohl's, this Tangula lounge chair from Amazon, or this teardrop patio chair that's nearly 25% off at Wayfair.

Hammock

Settling into a hammock with a good book might do the trick to forget about the coronavirus pandemic for a bit. There are plenty to choose from, like this Algoma set that's $120 off at Kohl's or this Vivere model at Home Depot.

Tent

When the sun gets really fierce, it'd be smart to have something blocking it. Find a canopy tent, like this Eurmax model at Amazon, or an umbrella, like this 10-foot umbrella that's 50% off at Wayfair, that'll cover your dining table or deck.

Bar

Bars across New Jersey are closed, so create the experience in your backyard. Get this 3-piece pub set, this 10-piece pub glass set and these Carolina Cottage pub stools, all from Kohl's and all on discount. Other options are on MHD, Amazon and Home Depot.
