Choosing the right patio furniture foot protector comes down to matching a small plastic insert to the leg you already own. An insert cup has to fit inside the opening, not just sit against it. If your chairs are tubular casual deck furniture or wrought iron with hollow legs, the Shepherd 1-1/2 in. White Plastic Insert Patio Furniture Cups (4-Pack) are a simple option to size up.
Quick Verdict
At USD 2.99, this set of four white insert cups gives you a straightforward way to put a barrier between patio furniture legs and the floor. The cups are designed to fit inside the base of wrought iron chair legs, and their round plastic shape can help protect furniture and floors while covering sharp edges. The purchase decision comes down to fit, so take a measurement before buying.
Shepherd 1-1/2 in. White Plastic Insert Patio Furniture Cups (4-Pack)
The listed cup size is 1-1/2 in., with a 1-3/8 in. internal diameter. These white plastic inserts are intended for tubular casual deck furniture and can also be used on wrought iron furniture legs. Since they are insert cups, they go into the open end of the leg rather than over the outside. The pack includes four identical pieces to use across four leg openings, but the fit depends on the leg opening matching the 1-3/8 in. internal diameter.
Who It Suits
This is a practical pick for a patio chair with an open, hollow leg that matches the insert opening. It is especially easy to consider if you want a plain white finish on a light-colored frame. For a single chair or a simple set with exposed tubular legs, this product gives you a clean way to finish the bottom of each leg without adding a bulky cap.
Meaningful Trade-Offs
The main limit is the fixed opening: at 1-3/8 in. internal diameter, the cup will not work well for leg openings that are meaningfully larger or smaller. The insert style also requires an open leg base rather than a closed one. If you have more than one chair to protect, plan to buy additional packs, since the set has a single quantity.
Bottom Line
The Shepherd 1-1/2 in. White Plastic Insert Patio Furniture Cups are a fit-dependent solution for tubular and wrought iron patio furniture. If the opening lines up with the internal diameter, they are a simple way to finish the legs. Check the measurement first, then decide if this set covers all the legs you want to protect.
