Newport Sunbrella Armless Outdoor Club Chair

Details at a Glance

Powder-coated aluminum stands up to full sun, salt air and rain without rusting or oxidizing -- the frame on this armless club chair is fully welded and finished in a scratch-resistant Frost White Satin coating that won't fade. The Newport Sunbrella Armless Outdoor Club Chair by Sunset West is a commercial-grade lounge chair available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Its Sunbrella cushions resist UV, mildew and staining season after season.

Will Powder-Coated Aluminum and Sunbrella Fabric Hold Up Outdoors?

Yes -- powder-coated aluminum is naturally rust-proof, and the coating adds scratch and oxidation resistance so the frame keeps its finish through years of exposure. Sunbrella fabric blocks UV rays and resists fading far better than standard outdoor textiles, while the solution-dyed acrylic fibers repel mildew and stains. The cushions use high-resiliency foam designed to drain moisture and dry quickly, so they won't stay soggy after a storm. This combination of aluminum and Sunbrella handles full sun, coastal salt air and summer downpours without breaking down.

Can This Stay Outside All Year?

The frame can stay out year-round -- aluminum won't rust and the powder coating won't crack in freezing temperatures. Cover the chair when you're not using it to keep dirt and tree sap off the finish, and store the cushions indoors or in a deck box over winter to protect the fabric and extend foam life. In mild climates you can leave cushions on under a waterproof cover, but bringing them inside is the safest bet if you see sustained freezing or heavy snow.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The armless profile fits tight corners, narrow balconies and poolside zones where a full-arm chair would crowd the layout. Pair it with other pieces from our outdoor accent chairs or outdoor chairs collections to build a modular lounge -- the Frost White finish and mid-century lines coordinate cleanly with modern patio furniture. Restaurants and hotels use this commercial-grade chair on terraces and rooftop decks because it holds up under high traffic and stacks beside outdoor dining chairs when the layout needs to flex.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Sunbrella fabric fade in direct sun?

Sunbrella is solution-dyed so the color runs through the fiber -- it resists fading far longer than printed or surface-treated outdoor fabrics, even in full sun all day.

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

Yes -- powder-coated aluminum is rust-proof, and Sunbrella fabric resists mildew and salt corrosion, so the chair performs well in coastal and salt-air environments.

How do I store it over winter?

Cover the frame or leave it uncovered (aluminum doesn't rust), and store cushions indoors or in a sealed deck box to protect the foam and fabric from snow and freezing moisture.

Can the cushions get wet in the rain?

Yes -- the foam is designed to drain and dry quickly -- but covering them or bringing them in during long wet spells extends their life and keeps mildew from forming in the seams.

Does this require assembly?

The chair ships with adjustable non-marring feet; some minor assembly may be required, and white-glove setup is available for an additional fee upon request.

What's the difference between this and all-weather wicker chairs?

Aluminum weighs less and won't fade or crack the way resin wicker can after years of UV -- it's easier to move and more durable in full sun, though wicker offers a softer traditional look.
