The Great Patio Paradox is upon us. The best time to buy outdoor furniture and patio sets is in August or September. But we realize not everyone wants to wait until the summer ends to enjoy a cool(ish) evening relaxing on the deck. As such, we've put together this roundup of hot patio furniture deals, which offers great mid-season discounts on the likes of canopies and gazebos, outdoor club chairs, and more.

    Is It Worth It?: Need a little shade out on the patio or yard? This pagoda is a peach, as it measures 13'x13' with its canopy and features a 150D polyester two-tone top, pull-pin sliders on legs, matching tiebacks provide additional style elements, and a wheeled carry bag for portability.

It includes a 40" table and six dining chairs with mildew and fade-resistant Olefin fabric cushions. (Umbrella sold separately.) This set and other backyard furniture and accessories are a part of Home Depot's Special Values Center, which discounts prices up to 50% off. Note that shipping starts at around $7, or bag free shipping on most orders of $45 or more; or better yet, choose in-store pickup to avoid shipping fees on cheaper items.
