If you’re in the market for outdoor furniture that’ll last decades, you may want to ditch the big box stores. From porch rockers and deck chairs to love seats and picnic tables, Amish outdoor furniture is known for its unmatched resilience and classic style. Here are some reasons to consider adding Amish-built pieces to your yard.

Why Opt for Amish Outdoor Furniture

1. Handmade

Unlike most items, which can come from factories halfway across the world, Amish outdoor furniture is not mass-produced. Every piece is crafted by diligent furniture makers from Amish communities, ensuring your items are custom-made in the USA.

2. Quality Materials

Some of today’s furnishings are no longer made with wood, but of low-quality materials such as corrugated cardboard, which makes them more affordable but less durable. When you purchase Amish outdoor furniture, it’s guaranteed to be made from first-rate solid wood, such as oak, maple, cherry, walnut, and hickory. These materials go through an extensive drying process to ensure their durability, and no corners are cut during manufacturing.

3. Durable

Most chairs and tables on the market today can start breaking down after a couple of years, but Amish outdoor furniture is made to last. Due to the Amish attention to detail and strict quality control, the furniture they create can last for generations, allowing you to pass down your antique pieces like family heirlooms.

4. Timeless 

Today’s furniture pieces take on trendy, hip designs to fit a modern home, but can start looking outdated in only a few years. Solid wood and natural grain provide timeless, classical beauty that never falls out of style, and the simplistic, elegant designs of Amish-made furniture can fit both modern and rustic aesthetics.

5. Customized

Since they’re often churned out from assembly lines, many of today’s furniture items look nearly identical, with little to no room for customization. With Amish furniture, you can have a piece tailored to your preferences and specifications, ensuring that your purchase looks how you want it to and fulfills all your needs.
