Marine Grade Polymer doesn't rust, crack, or fade the way powder-coated aluminum and resin wicker do when you leave them out through a coastal winter or desert summer. The Telescope Leeward Deep Seat Hidden Motion Armchair available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. It's a deep seating outdoor lounge chair with concealed rocking mechanics and a cantilever sled base, built for pool decks and resort terraces where clean lines matter.
How Does Marine Grade Polymer Hold Up to Pool Chemicals and Salt Air?
Marine Grade Polymer is non-porous, so chlorine, salt spray, and UV exposure can't penetrate the material to cause rust or structural decay. Unlike powder-coated aluminum, which chips and exposes metal to corrosion, MGP runs solid through the entire frame -- there's no coating to fail. The material is UV-stabilized to resist fading and rated for contract-grade hospitality use, meaning it's tested for heavy daily traffic in resort and senior living installations. It handles freeze-thaw cycles, desert heat, and coastal humidity without cracking or warping.
Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?
No -- this chair stays outdoors year-round in any climate without covered storage. MGP performs in freezing rain, snow, and direct summer sun because it's weatherproof through the entire structure, not just surface-treated. To clean it, hose off the frame; there's no oiling, sealing, or touch-up required. Sunbrella cushions (sold separately) resist mildew and fading and carry a 5-10 year warranty, but you should store them indoors during extended rain or snow to extend their life.
Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?
The deep 20-24 inch seat depth and hidden motion make this a lounge piece, not a dining chair -- pair it with other outdoor accent chairs around a fire table or place it solo by the pool. The sled base and concealed rocking mechanics suit modern resort-style patios where you don't want visible pivot hardware breaking up sight lines. If you're building a full conversation set, browse outdoor chairs in matching MGP colors. For ideas on zoning your patio for lounging versus dining, see Designing Your Dream Outdoor Living Space.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can this chair stay outdoors year-round?
- Yes -- Marine Grade Polymer is built to stay outside in desert heat, coastal humidity, and freeze-thaw cycles without covered storage or damage.

- Is it suitable for a coastal or salt-air location?
- Absolutely -- MGP is non-porous and rust-proof, so salt spray and ocean air won't corrode or degrade the frame like they do with aluminum.
- How do I clean the frame?
- Hose it off when it gets dusty or grimy. MGP doesn't require oiling, sealing, staining, or any seasonal maintenance.

- What is contract-grade outdoor furniture?
