Buying Guide

Cedar is an excellent wood to use in outdoor furniture. Insect and decay resistant, the aroma of red cedar speaks for itself as being a part of nature. Affordable and easy to work with, cedar patio tables are a popular choice for those that spend a lot of time outdoors.

What types of cedarwood are there?

There are two types of cedarwood used in making patio tables:

Western Red Cedar - Known for its warm reddish to pinkish brown color, Western red cedar is used for home construction, furniture and boats. The distinguishing trait is the aromatic essence of walking through a forest filled with cedar trees.
Northern White Cedar - White cedar has its own positive characteristics. The oils are stronger than red cedar, making them a good choice for fences and outdoor furniture. It holds paint and finishes nicely without fear of warping.

What are the applications of cedar patio tables?

Because cedar patio tables can be made in any size, the applications are endless.

Picnic Tables - An old-fashioned picnic table never goes out of style. Red cedar that is weather resistant allows you to always have a place in the shade. 40 inches to 70 inches in length, there is always room for guests.
Side Tables - Made from white or red cedar, side tables offer a touch of nature to any patio sitting area. Whether painted or stained, the iconic look of cedar will mix well with furniture. Round, square or rectangular, there are sizes to proportionately fit your space.
Coffee Tables - With outdoor living spaces becoming more common, coffee tables are becoming necessary for conversation areas. Plank cedar wood gives a contemporary look to relaxed furniture. A 48 inch long table is just the right size for a love seat and a couple of chairs.
Dining Tables - A round or rectangular dining table made from cedar blends luxury and nature. Wood knots and varied grain colors will add character to these red cedar patio tables.
Utility Tables - Whether for use as storage or gardening, a handy utility table can be placed anywhere. A compact and foldable cedar utility table can be used inside or outside because of the rugged wood. 32 inches long and 15 inches wide make it the perfect size for an extra set of hands. Height is 33 inches.

Which decorating styles pair well with cedar furniture?

Cedar is a soft wood and is beautiful when left straight and natural. Contemporary decors that have no ornamentation or carvings will show off the beauty of cedar wood.

How to maintain cedar patio tables?

Cedar patio tables that have been painted or have a clear coating should need only occasional washing with a mild detergent. If stains occur, use a mixture of bleach and water to remove spots then rinse with detergent and water. Unfinished cedar should be washed down regularly to prevent mold and mildew and to keep wood lasting longer. However, a clear sealer applied to the wood will prolong the life of the cedar wood.
