teak it a wood that is used on sailboats and water doesnt have any adverse affect on it. it does have an oily sap so that is why it lasts so long.teak wont warp like oak or maple.
Is it better to buy teak garden furniture rather than hard wood, if so why?
Hard wood will not last outside, even in relatively mild climates like California. It will dry rot, wet rot, or be attacked by insects.
Teak will last many years if maintained properly (oiled regularly).
Reply:Teak is a hard wood that lasts along time and needs attention just as the other hardwood does..One thing is its more expensive and prettier.Its all in what you prefer and can afford. Myself I have fiberglas table and plastic chairs.
