Aruba II Sling Balcony Height Stacking Cafe Chair

Details at a Glance

Powder-coated aluminum frames won't rust in salt air, and the powder coating itself resists chipping and fading even when the chair spends summers on a pool deck or rooftop terrace. The Telescope Aruba II Sling Balcony Height Swivel Café Chair, a 30-inch aluminum outdoor swivel chair with sling construction, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The swivel mechanism is built into the base, so you can rotate smoothly in all directions without standing or repositioning the chair.

Why Doesn't Powder-Coated Aluminum Rust or Corrode?

Aluminum itself doesn't rust because it lacks iron, and the powder coating adds a heat-bonded protective barrier that resists UV fade, salt air, and pool chemicals. You won't see rust streaks, pitting, or corrosion marks the way you would on painted steel, even after a full season of coastal exposure. This chair is commercial grade, which means the frame and coating are built to withstand hospitality-level use -- constant swiveling, frequent repositioning, and all-day sun.

Do You Have to Store Sling Chairs in Winter?

You don't have to, but you'll extend the fabric's life if you do. The aluminum frame and powder coating handle freezing temperatures, snow, and ice without damage, but the sling fabric lasts longer when it's not left under snow weight or cycled through freeze-thaw. If you leave it out, stand the chair upright so snow doesn't collect in the seat, or tilt it forward against a table. For full winter storage, wipe the frame clean and stack it in a shed or garage -- no cover needed indoors.

Where Does a Balcony Height Swivel Chair Work Best?

This chair pairs with 42-inch bar-height tables on rooftop terraces, pool decks, and café-style outdoor dining setups where you want a commanding view and easy rotation. The 30-inch seat height puts you at the right level for high-top surfaces, and the swivel makes it simple to turn toward a fire table or pass a dish without standing. You'll find coordinated pieces in our outdoor accent chairs and outdoor dining chairs collections, or browse outdoor chairs for other height options.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this chair stay outside all year?

The aluminum frame and powder coating can stay outside through winter, but the sling fabric lasts longer when stored indoors or kept dry under a cover during snow season.

Will the powder coating fade in direct sun?

Powder coating resists UV fade far better than paint, and commercial-grade finishes hold color through seasons of full sun exposure.

Is this chair suitable for a coastal or salt-air location?

Yes -- powder-coated aluminum is coastal-safe and poolside-safe, with no rust or corrosion even in salt air.

What's the difference between balcony height and counter height?

Balcony height seating sits at approximately 30 inches, designed for 42-inch bar-height tables; counter height is 24-26 inches for 36-inch tables.

Does the swivel mechanism need maintenance?

The swivel is built into the base and doesn't require oiling or adjustment, though you can rinse the base if sand or debris slows rotation.

Does this chair arrive fully assembled?

No, assembly takes approximately 30 minutes with standard tools. Free curbside delivery is included to the continental USA; setup and assembly services are available for an additional fee upon request.
