Mekan Gray Armless Accent Chair

Details at a Glance

Powder-coated aluminum won't rust, and 100% olefin cushions resist UV fade and mildew -- this chair is built to sit outside through rain and full sun without constant upkeep. The Zuo Modern Mekan Gray Armless Accent Chair is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. At 32.3 inches wide, the armless profile fits tight patio corners and pool decks while the 240-pound capacity meets commercial hospitality standards.

How Well Does Powder-Coated Aluminum and Olefin Hold Up Outdoors?

The powder-coat finish seals the aluminum frame against moisture and salt air, preventing rust in coastal and high-humidity climates. Olefin fabric is engineered to resist UV damage, so the gray colorway won't bleach to white after a summer in direct sun. The fabric also sheds mildew and dries quickly after storms, which matters if you're leaving the chair uncovered between uses. Protective rubber feet prevent scratches on wood decking or tile without compromising stability.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You can leave it out year-round if you're in a mild climate, but covering or storing it during heavy snow and ice extends the life of the cushions. The removable olefin covers machine-wash for easy seasonal cleaning before you put the chair back out in spring. At 26.4 pounds, it's light enough to move into a garage or shed without help, and the aluminum frame won't warp if it stays outside under a waterproof cover.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The armless design works in narrow balcony corners and alongside fire pits where traditional lounge chairs feel too bulky. Pair it with pieces from our outdoor accent chairs collection to build a flexible seating area, or mix it into a larger setup with options from outdoor chairs for cohesive styling. The modern clean lines and gray tone layer well with natural teak side tables and navy or cream cushions if you're expanding a lounge zone.
