The Best Outdoor Dining and Lounge Furniture From West Elm

The Kylo Outdoor Side Table ($199) is a statement-making piece that will add a sculptural element to your space.

What we love:

• It's hand-molded and finished in Vietnam, so it truly is a piece of functional art. This is just one of West Elm's pieces that helps support artisan communities around the globe.
• It's made of fiberstone, a durable yet lightweight material perfect for the outdoors.

Who it's best for:

• This table is the ideal size for resting a cocktail and a book, so it's great for small spaces or outdoor areas with multiple table surfaces.

Who should avoid it:

• If you're looking for a larger side table that can accommodate more than one person, this one might not be for you.

The Details: Dimensions: 15.7"diam. x 18"h |Material: 50 percent polyester resin, 40 percent powderstone, 10 percent fiberglass

This Portside Outdoor C-Side Table ($179, originally $199) is the perfect surface to set drinks and snacks.

What we love:

• The C shape allows the tabletop to perch directly over your seating, so you don't have to bend down to grab what you need.

Who it's best for:

• If you have a large sofa and a single coffee table, this C-shaped table can come in handy for people who can't reach the coffee table.
• If you want a table that makes it easier to eat, this higher tabletop feels similar to dining-table height.

Who should avoid it:

• If you'd rather have a table that can serve multiple people, you might want to consider a traditional coffee table.

The Details: Dimensions: 36"sq. x 17"h | Material: Moisture-resistant solid mahogany and solid eucalyptus wood with wire-brushed surface.
