Best wood for outdoor furniture

I have been looking to buy some wooden outdoor furniture. Does anyone know which wood is the best for outdoor use?

There are many and allot depends on where you live, the best is Teak, Red Oak is better than white, the most popular is cedar and is my favortie to use, where a mask if cutting large amounts of these as they are high in oils and can bother ones lungs

Hi,
I think Teak is one of the best, long lasting and strong materials used for indoor and outdoor furniture. Why don't you think about that??
1)Teak wood is good-looking, smooth, sturdy and durable.

2) It is resistant to bad weather and insects. A garden bench made of teak is capable of withstanding rain and sunlight for several years even without periodic maintenance.

3) Unlike furniture made of other materials, teak furniture don't require artificial polishing or oiling.

4) Teak wood is rich with silica and natural oil content that make it resistant to all kinds of insects.

5) Teak is very suitable for structural works and carved designs for its sturdiness, elasticity and ease of use.

6) Teak wood does not get rotted or splintered even if it remains in contact with metals like iron for years due to the presence of silica and oil content.

7) The denseness of teak, together with its other qualities, makes it the favorite wood of shipbuilders throughout the world.

8) Because of its stylish design with clean lines, teak wood stands out among all timbers.

9) Cleaning and maintaining teak furniture is pretty easy.

I brought my garden pergola at foreverredwood and I am very much satisfied with their products they also provide wooden planter boxes, benches and many more.

Cedar is your best bet. more so if you want a rustic look because you dont have to stain it. It is naturally weather resistant.
