Decent garden furniture on the cheap?

Well, the weekend weather has finally convinced me that the snow isn't coming back and that spring must have arrived... !

So, I'm looking to get some decent low-maintenance all weather garden furniture i.e. a table and 6 chairs.
Not wooden... too much maintenance.
Not plastic... too lightweight...last one blew away and smashed up.

Preferably of a coated metal mesh construction... i.e. something long-lasting, that I can leave out all year round and will drip-dry...

Ideally, this sort of stuff, but without the price tag

I'm open to suggestions, so anyone got some ideas?
Thanks!
Ah! Good old trusty beer... I hope you never change.

    Try Homebase.

    This thursday is 10% day plus 25% off all garden furniture. We got a round table and 4 chairs for £170 using this deal last year (same price this year in the flyer they sent out in our area. Not as good a qaulity as the kettler stuff, but then it's not got the pricetag!!

    Thanks Rob... will check out Homebase on Thursday.
    Would still prefer the Kettler stuff though, just can't justify that sort of cash!

    ...Popped in on the way back from work today - they have a steel mesh construction table and chairs that looks similar to the Kettler range (in case anyone reading this is interested). Just a shame the table's too small to comfortably seat 6.... will keep looking

    Couple more names for you to search for, unfortunately more in the Kettler price band

    Danewood leisure

    plantation patterns

    swan hattersley

    I looked through the stuff I found when we were looking for a similar set (but only for 4) last year.

    Good luck with the continued searching.
