Sloane & Sons Cuts Prices Across Teak Garden Seating as UK Gardeners Look to Buy Once and Buy Well

Sloane & Sons, the Staffordshire-based supplier of Grade A teak outdoor furniture, is offering reduced prices across its range of teak seating, giving British homeowners the chance to invest in a long-lasting garden bench or lounge set at a lower cost as the outdoor season winds down.

The range includes benches in two to five-seater sizes, curved banana benches, Adirondack chairs, steamer chairs and sun loungers, all made from sustainably sourced Grade A teak and all eligible for free next-day delivery on selected items when ordered before 2pm.

Why autumn is a smart time to buy

Many gardeners put off buying outdoor furniture until the first warm weekend of spring, by which point choice can be limited and delivery queues longer. Buying in autumn allows customers to take advantage of current pricing, get the furniture in place before the winter and see it settle into the garden ahead of next season. It also gives buyers time to decide where a bench works best, since the low autumn light and the bare winter garden show up awkward corners and best views more clearly than a crowded summer border.

Teak is well suited to being left outdoors through the colder months. The timber produces its own natural oils, which protect it against rain, frost and pests, so it does not need to be stored away or painted. Over time it weathers from a warm honey brown to an attractive silver-grey, a change that is purely cosmetic and does not affect its strength. Customers who prefer to keep the original colour can apply a teak protector once or twice a year.

Examples from the current range

Among the items currently on special prices are the Banana Halfmoon Teak Garden Bench (1.5m), a curved two-seater now priced at £399 from £499, and the Adirondack Teak Garden Chair with Ottoman, now £349 from £499. The Burnham Teak Steamer Chair with Wheels, designed for easy movement around the garden, is currently £299, reduced from £549.

The banana range, named for its gently curved top rail, also includes a couples bench with a built-in central table, matching half-moon chairs and a coffee table, so that customers can build a coordinated seating area from a single supplier. The Adirondack range includes matching ottomans and a set with a side table for those who want to create a relaxed lounging corner.

Built to last, not to be replaced

Sloane & Sons has supplied teak furniture for more than 30 years, and its customers include organisations such as the BBC, the NHS and Network Rail as well as private households. The company says its focus is on quality over quantity: furniture made from the highest grade of teak, with traditional mortise and tenon joints that are designed to withstand years of seasonal movement, rather than low-cost pieces that need replacing every few years.

That approach reflects a wider shift among UK garden owners. With many households now treating the garden as an extension of the living space, there is growing interest in furniture that can stay outside all year, look good as it ages and avoid the cost and waste of repeated replacement. For buyers weighing up the true cost of outdoor seating, spreading the price over a decade or more of use can make a premium hardwood piece far better value than a cheaper alternative.

Options for gifts, memorials and commercial spaces

The range is not only for private gardens. Sloane & Sons offers personalisation on its benches, including carved inscriptions and brass plaques from £50, which makes them a popular choice for memorial seating and special-occasion gifts. A dedicated commercial range covers parks, schools, hospitality venues and other public spaces, with bulk discounts available for larger orders and fixing kits to secure benches to the ground.

Customers also have access to a range of accessories, including seat cushions, protective covers, throws, anchoring kits and teak protection products, so that the furniture can be tailored to the way it will be used.

Delivery, guarantee and customer support

Selected items qualify for free next-day delivery when ordered before 2pm, and products are backed by a 12-month warranty. The company’s team is available by phone and through its website to advise on sizes, styles and care, helping customers to choose a piece that suits their space.
