Why We Love This Deal
Buying patio furniture during the fall and winter is the best way to get big discounts, and if you go with something water-resistant and low-maintenance, you might actually be able to use it more than you’d think. But buying patio furniture at this time of year also comes with certain storage demands not normally seen in the summer. That’s why opting for a stackable set, like the one Walmart has on sale for half off, makes a lot of sense right now.
Normally priced at $400, the Lofka 7-Piece Patio Conversation Set is down to $200 at Walmart. It’s the kind of dining set you want during unpredictable weather, and the 50-plus shoppers who have it in their carts right now undoubtedly know that. We think this set will work for most, but those working with less space might like the brand’s three-piece set (on sale for $67) instead.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Material: Powder-coated steel frame, wood-grain tabletop, Textilene sling seats
- Dimensions: 59.5” x 35.4” table, chairs are 18.9” x 20.9” x 34.2”
- Capacity: Seats six; chairs rated up to 400 pounds, table to 220 pounds
- Care: Wipe clean with mild soap and water
- Best For: Backyards, patios, poolside dining, small gatherings
The Textilene construction of the chairs means they’re very low maintenance, since they dry fast and don’t hold mildew as cushioned chairs do. Since the set is also rust-resistant, you can use it outside of the usual patio season and leave it out without worrying too much. If you do need to bring the set inside, the six chairs are stackable, making storage easy. Each chair is rated for up to 400 pounds, and the table can handle up to 220 pounds.
A seven-piece sling dining set with a full-size table usually costs well over $200, even at big-box stores, and the sale price also means you’re paying about $30 per piece. But this is a simple set that’s best for rentals, staying within a budget, or getting your first outdoor dining set to see what you like.
What if you don’t like to eat outside? For something more cushioned and built for lounging and hangouts, go with the brand’s seven-piece wicker set.
What Shoppers Are Saying
This is definitely a low price for a seven-piece set, but don’t let that discourage you: “For the price, I wasn’t expecting it to be as nice as it is.” That same shopper added, “Sturdy chairs, nice table, clear instructions, and pictures. This exceeded my expectations.”
A second reviewer wrote, “Given to our son and daughter-in-law for their deck. Looks really nice. Quite happy.” It’s worth noting that shipping will run you an extra $60, but that’s honestly on the lower end for these kinds of sets on sale.
The Lofka 7-Piece Patio Conversation Set is available now for $200, and it’s a set you’ll be happy to have once patio season is back in full swing. With clearance deals like this, it’s a good idea to act fast before they’re gone.
