Amazon recently announced the return of Prime Day, and this year's sale is slated for July 12 and 13. But there's no reason to wait almost a month to shop the discounts. In fact, some of the best deals are already live, including patio furniture and decor items that are marked down to some of their lowest prices in months. With the warmest months of the year now well underway, many people are spending much more time outside. And there's no reason to lounge or entertain on uncomfortable furniture on your deck or patio. Amazon took note because the early Prime Day sale is filled with outdoor items that are priced as low as $17.

"Great quality patio set, exactly what I was looking for in terms of size and style," said one five-star reviewer about the Nuu Garden bistro set. They noted that the included hardware and assembly instructions were "top notch" and added, "These are so stylish and well designed." Sometimes freshening up a larger space can feel daunting, but the early Prime Day sale means you can pick up a number of great finds without going over your budget. Start with a rattan conversation set that comes with three pieces. It has 1,300 five-star ratings and plenty of positive reviews, which have both helped to turn it into the top best-seller in Amazon's Patio Dining Sets category. Once that's in place, add string lights overhead for warmth and ambiance.
