What we don’t like: Expensively priced for no cushion

Not so good for: Cooler months

Perfect for: If you don’t like fussy designs

We recommend placing this bench in an allotment or grass-heavy area for a charming look.

Not so good for: Stretching out

Perfect for: Adding retro flair

Available in lime, red coral, or yellow, this adorable bench will add tons of retro flair to your outdoor space.

Made from steel, the frame is also mildew resistant. Something to note is that this glider measures only 42 inches wide. While it will still seat two people, there will be less room to relax. We recommend surrounding your glider with retro plant pots and a pastel cushion or three to create your own vintage paradise.

Buying Guide

Utilizing your garden space is important in order to get the value out of your home, and outdoor furniture is one of the best ways to make your outdoor space a comfortable area for everyone. Sofa gliders are one of the items which fit perfectly in the garden, and if you have the need and the space for one, there are many different designs and sizes available to choose from.

  • Rattan sofa gliders: One of the most popular garden materials on the market, rattan is a top choice with many homeowners. This material is generally waterproof and versatile, being comfortable enough to sit on with or without cushions and other extras. You can add as many cushions as you require to the furniture.
  • Metal sofa gliders: If you're looking for a low maintenance sofa glider for your garden, look no further than the metal design. These sofas are resistant to bad weather and very easy to clean, which means you can leave them outside all year round and you don't have to waste precious time at the weekend cleaning them over.
  • Wooden sofa gliders: A varnished wooden sofa glider can look beautiful in your garden, particularly if you have a lot of flowers and plants and you don't want to disrupt this natural look by adding artificial furniture. If the sofa is varnished, it will be more resistant to rain while outdoors, although if you really want to look after your sofa, bring it indoors during the winter and install a canopy or shelter to further protection.
  • Fabric sofa gliders: More suitable for sheltered patios or decked areas, fabric sofas are some of the most comfortable that you will find. The frame of the sofa is generally made from sturdy iron or metal, but then topped with standard sofa cushions or scatter back cushions. During poor weather, you can store the cushions in a shed or garage.

  • Reclining style: While sofa gliders are not battery operated and so are not available for purchase in the style of a full reclining indoor sofa, you can certainly buy sofa gliders which are more relaxed and reclined than others. A sofa which has a more reclined back than others allows for ultimate relaxation in the garden.
  • Extra storage: A useful style to consider is the sofa glider which provides some storage. This is either in the form of a drawer underneath the seating which you can easily open and close. You may want to buy a lock for the drawer if you intend to put important things in there that you wouldn't like to lose. Alternatively, there may be a ledge underneath the seating to allow for temporary or permanent storage of items such as cushions, cups, plates or blankets.
  • Two-seater: The ideal choice for a single person or couple, a two-seater sofa gliders is almost like a garden loveseat. Large enough for two people to be comfortable but small enough to be affordable and the ideal size for a small garden, the two-seater sofa glider is available in all the materials mentioned above.
  • Three-seater: A larger sofa glider which is ideal for families or homeowners who enjoy hosting garden parties and other social gatherings. Providing extra seating outdoors when you need it, a three-seater softer normally provides good value for money and can even fit four people if the seats are larger than a standard 24-inch sofa seat.
