When you have a small outdoor space and only need seating for two, one of these wooden Folding Patio Sets will give you the ability to store your set easily when not in use. Each of these five sets will have some special features to make them fit some areas better than others.
All of these sets will be made of hardwoods, either Acacia wood or Eucalyptus wood. This style of wood does very well in most outdoor weather conditions with little care. Just a cleaning during the year and a coat of the proper oil once a year, some will outlast their owners.

Eucalyptus Wood Outdoor Bistro Set
I have a very similar set of chairs to this set without the table. It is very comfortable for short term sitting and stores very well. My set is over 20 years old and still looks good.
This set will be made from eucalyptus wood, a hardwood that will last a long time in outdoor conditions. It will resist wet weather, insects and most rodents will find it does not taste good.
The chairs will be 24 inches wide, 18 inches deep, and 36 inches high. Each chair will support 200 pounds. The chairs will come fully assembled.
The square table will be 24 inches across and 27 inches tall. It will require some assembly and will have a slated wood tabletop.
This set is made from wood that is harvested from a wood farm in Brazil, this is a planned renewable forest that will not deplete our rainforest.

My final thoughts on these folding patio sets
For those who do not have a lot of patio space or just want the ability to easily store their bistro set, one of these wooden folding patio sets will work well. I have a set of folding wood chairs that have been around for a long time.
With the several styles of tables and chairs in this article, you should be able to find one that is very appealing to you and your family. I like the Safavieh because it stores inside of itself, it cost a little more and looks better against the wall.
