Newport Sunbrella Outdoor Club Chair

Details at a Glance

The Sunset West Newport club chair is built around a fully welded aluminum frame that won't rust, even when you leave it on a coastal deck all season. Powder-coated in a Frost finish and paired with high-resiliency foam cushions wrapped in Sunbrella Grade A fabric, this low-profile piece measures 34.65 in. wide, 31 in. deep and 27.36 in. tall -- available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Commercial-grade construction and adjustable non-marring feet make it equally at home on a hotel terrace or your own patio.

Will Powder-Coated Aluminum Hold Up in Coastal Salt Air?

Yes -- powder coating seals aluminum against oxygen and moisture, so the frame won't corrode in humid or salt-heavy climates. The Frost finish resists scratches and UV degradation, and the fully welded joints eliminate the weak points where moisture typically creeps in. Unlike steel or untreated aluminum, this chair can sit uncovered near the ocean without rusting through or pitting. Sunbrella fabric adds a second layer of weather resistance, blocking water absorption and mildew growth across the cushions.

Do You Need to Bring the Cushions Inside Every Night?

You don't have to, but you'll extend their life if you do. Sunbrella fabric sheds light rain and resists fading for years in full sun, but high-resiliency foam eventually absorbs moisture if left out through heavy storms or winter freezes. Bring the cushions in during the off-season or cover the whole chair when you're not using it for a week or more. The aluminum frame can stay outside year-round without damage -- wipe it down with mild soap and water in spring, and check that the adjustable feet stay snug.

Where Does This Chair Work Best on a Deck or Patio?

Place two Newport chairs around a low side table on a covered patio for a mid-century conversation zone, or cluster them poolside where the non-marring feet won't scratch stone or composite decking. The 18-inch seat height and 28-inch arm height suit deep lounging, so pair it with pieces from the outdoor chairs and outdoor accent chairs collections to build a cohesive Frost-finish setup. If your space opens to an indoor living room, the Newport's low profile and clean lines bridge the threshold without clashing with interior furniture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stay outside all year?

The aluminum frame can, but bring cushions inside or cover them during winter to prevent moisture buildup in the foam core.

Will the Frost finish fade in direct sun?

No -- powder coating is UV-stable and won't bleach, chalk or peel even in unshaded exposure.

Is this suitable for a salt-air location?

Yes -- the sealed powder-coated frame resists corrosion in coastal climates, and Sunbrella fabric won't mildew in humidity.

What makes Sunbrella cushions different from standard outdoor fabric?

Sunbrella is solution-dyed acrylic that resists fading, water absorption and mildew, typically lasting five to ten years in full sun versus one to two for untreated polyester.

Does this chair require assembly?

Minimal -- adjust the non-marring feet to level the chair on your surface, then place the cushions.

Does free shipping include setup or assembly?

Free curbside delivery brings the chair to your address; white-glove placement and any assembly help are available for an additional fee upon request.
