Q&A

What size umbrella base will fit?

Hello Vincent, We recommend the umbrella with base that we offer on our website, which has a width of 19.3" and height (thickness) of 2.8". I hope this helps! Best, -Zach

Will 2 extra chairs fit around this 48" round table? Purchasing to seat 4, but may occasionally have up to 6 people. Debating buying the 6-seater farmhouse table instead, but it will take up too much of the porch, and that many seats not usually needed.

Hi Judy! Thanks for your question! The 48" round table is designed to comfortably seat 4 people. That said, once your set arrives and you have it in place, you may find there's enough room to occasionally add 1–2 extra chairs, depending on the chair style and spacing preferences. If flexibility is important, you can always start with 4 chairs and consider ordering additional ones later if it feels like a good fit on your porch. Thank you and Happy Shopping! Best, Amber

I'm looking to purchase an outdoor dining set. My son-in-law probably weighs about 350. Which chairs would hold his weight without breaking?

Hi Leslie, Thank you for your question. At POLYWOOD, we test all seating options to comply with ASTM standards. The weight capacity for our Dining chairs is 300 lbs. Thanks for asking. Lana

How much will it cost to order set already assembled?

Hi Lia, Great question! Currently, we only offer assembly services for PW Designer Series products as part of the White Glove Experience.

We also offer a library of assembly videos and written instructions on our website. Simply search by product name or SKU number to find the information you need. Thanks, Lana

Hello. Do these have a hole in the center for an umbrella? Thank you

Would 6 chairs fit comfortably around this table?

Hi Luanne, Thank you for your question! 48" Round tables are designed to fit 4 - 5 chairs around it. Putting 6 chairs around this table would be a tight fit. Thanks for asking! Lana

How many chairs can comfortably fit around this table for a meal? More than 4?

Hi Emily, Great question! 48" round tables are designed to seat 4 - 5 people comfortably. Thanks for asking! Lana

My current 48" table has the 4 legs on the outer edge of the table so the center is free for leg room. Do you have an option for the table to be built with the legs on the outside edge instead of the current configuration in the middle of the table?

Hi Ryan, Though POLYWOOD furniture is built to order, we don't offer specialty items or customization options. Thanks for asking! Lana

I want to order Lakeside dining set and chaise lounges but the website does not indicate which finish they have. I know you have a Classic finish that is smooth and a wirebrush finish as well. How can I tell which finish these are?

Hi Robert, Our Lakeside dining set is available in the Classic finish. The RT248 table and TLD100 Dining chairs are available in the Vintage finish, but not sold as a set. Our Vintage Finish is available in 3 colors, Vintage Sahara, Vintage Coffee and Vintage White. Any colors aside from the three Vintage colors are in our Classic finish. Thanks for asking! Lana

What tools are required to assemble the lakeside farmhouse table.

Hi Sharon, You can view all of our assembly instructions on the product page under the Product Details section, labeled Assembly Information. For the Lakeside Farmhouse Table POLYWOOD provides the 4mm T-Handle hex key and you will need your own 3/8" wrench. Thanks for asking! Lana

Can I purchase assembly?

Hi Peggy, Thank you for your question! POLYWOOD does not offer assembly services. Some of our customers have told us they contacted a local assembly service or used sites like handy.com to find an assembly service in their area. Thanks, Lana

How much space is there between the tables legs/braces? We have a built in concrete umbrella stand, and I want to be sure the table will fit around it

Hi April, Thank you for your question! There is 18 inches of space between the table legs. Happy Shopping! Lana

I would LOVE to get patio furniture but we have four rockers and recently noticed the squirrels were chewing on them!!! I prefer not to purchase an expensive set only to learn the wild animals have turned it to dust :( Can you add something to the plastic so they don't find it so tasty! Thank you.

Hi Wendy, Thank you for your review! When it comes to deterring squirrels, we usually recommend natural repellents like peppermint oil or cayenne pepper. Applying these near or on the furniture can sometimes help keep the squirrels away by their scent. Additionally, you can find a spray product called Repels-All at your local hardware store, which may be helpful. To provide you with further assistance, I've included a link below to an article from one of our trusted partners. It offers some valuable insights on how to effectively deter squirrels. https://www.the-cover-store.com/blog/post/how-protect-your-patio-squirrels For more information on how to protect your furniture from squirrels, please visit: https://www.polywood.com/blog/outdoor-living/home-improvement/how-to-get-rid-of-squirrels/ I hope this information is helpful. Thank you, Michelle

What is the height of the chair seat?

Hello Lynnda, Thank you for your interest in our products. The chairs in the Lakeside 5-Piece Round Farmhouse Side Chair Dining Set have a seat height of 17". Thanks -Jason

Is there an option to replace (2) of the side chairs with armrest chairs?

Hello CCX, Sets on the website cannot be changed. You can still purchase the items you would like, you just can't do so in a set. You would have to find the individual items, and choose your color and add them to the cart separately. Thanks for asking, Mindy

What is the weight of each chair and the table? I want to be sure they won’t blow around if a strong storm comes through.

Hi Benjamin, The weight of the Lakeside Dining Side Chairs is 20 pounds. I hope this helped! Thank you, Michelle

Do these get really hot in the sun? Will they burn someone if they are in direct sunlight?

Hello Megan, Thank you for reaching out about this. With POLYWOOD's products, they are designed to be used in all climates and weather. With our darker lumber colors when exposed to sunlight, we do advise testing the item before using it. For this, we recommend touching it with the back of your hand to see how hot it is. If left out in direct sunlight we do also suggest possibly getting a cover for the furniture which covers for our products can be found at thecoverstore.com. Thanks -Jason

Can this come with someone to set it up

Hi Susan, Great question! We currently do not offer do not offer assistance with assembly for this product. However, there is a company we can recommend for this called Handy. Handy offers many household services and has a large network of contractors across the country who the customer can schedule an assembly service with. Here is the link to direct them to: https://www.handy.com/services/furniture-assembly. I hope this was helpful. Thank you, Michelle
