The Best "Better" Brand in Aluminum Patio Furniture
If you're looking for high-quality aluminum outdoor furniture that balances style, comfort, and value, Woodard Furniture is the top choice in Illinois. Built in the USA with powder-coated aluminum or iron frames and Sunbrella fabrics, Woodard sits squarely in the "better" category—above budget brands, but below ultra-luxury lines like Tropitone or Brown Jordan. It's a brand we trust, and our customers do too. Most of our Woodard furniture is custom-ordered to suit your exact fabric and finish preferences, but we also keep about 8 top-selling sets on display at our 25,000 square foot showroom in Champaign. If you're furnishing a residential patio, a hotel terrace, or an upscale restaurant, Woodard offers that perfect combination of elegance, comfort, and durability.
Why Customers Choose Woodard
Made in Michigan from extruded aluminum, cast aluminum, or cast iron
Powder-coated finishes for long-term durability
Cushions made with water-repellent covers
Sunbrella fabrics on most cushion sets
Welded and/or bolted frame construction for strength
Comfortable seating that looks refined without feeling stiff
Custom fabric choices with ~6–8 week lead times
Customizable frame colors
Ideal for mixed-brand layouts or partial set replacements
Woodard is especially popular with residential buyers and commercial clients who want something a little more ornate than poly or imported aluminum—but without the premium price tag of the top-shelf brands. Consider making the drive to Champaign to see multiple premium patio furniture brands in one stop — Woodard, Berlin Gardens, POLYWOOD, Jensen, and more.
What We Stock in our Illinois Store
We keep about 10 curated Woodard sets on our showroom floor, along with a wide selection of Sunbrella fabric samples for you to customize your order. Most customers configure a full set, then we place a custom order and deliver it white-glove when ready. Lead times are around 6–8 weeks.
You’ll typically find:
Aluminum dining sets
Lounge seating
Swivel rockers
Loveseats and deep seating
Fire tables and chat-height tables
Woodard is often paired with other brands in mixed-material patios—we're especially good at helping customers create those hybrid layouts.

While our Woodard deliveries are currently concentrated in Illinois, we offer white-glove delivery across the region. For large residential & commercial orders, we deliver to neighboring states as needed.
We’re early in our Woodard installs, but the response has been strong—and we expect more regional projects to follow.
