Summit Aluminum Frame Outdoor Loveseat Ottoman

Details at a Glance

Aluminum doesn't rust, and All-Weather Wicker won't crack when the temperature swings--two facts that matter when you're shopping for seating that stays outside year after year. The Lloyd Flanders Summit Aluminum Frame Outdoor Loveseat Ottoman is a 46-inch hand-crafted outdoor bench with a fully welded aluminum frame, hand-woven All-Weather Wicker, and custom Sunbrella cushions, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. At 25.1 pounds it's light enough to reposition whenever you need extra seating or a footrest, but the welded frame stays put in wind.

How Well Does the Aluminum Frame and All-Weather Wicker Hold Up to Rain and Sun?

The frame is fully welded aluminum, which means it won't absorb moisture, corrode, or rust even when rain pools on the patio. The hand-woven Lloyd Loom All-Weather Wicker gets a Durium modified polyester enamel coating that resists UV damage and won't crack in heat or cold. That coating also stands up to chemicals--pool chlorine, deck cleaner--without peeling. The 100% Sunbrella acrylic cushion fabric resists UV fading and mildew, so colors stay true through full summers. You're looking at materials engineered specifically for outdoor exposure, not indoor furniture dragged onto the deck.

Do You Have to Bring This Inside for Winter?

The aluminum frame and coated wicker can stay outside all year in most climates--they won't rust or rot. Store the Sunbrella cushions indoors or in a deck box during severe weather to keep them from sitting in standing water or snow. Clean the frame with mild soap and water, vacuum the cushions, and apply automotive wax to the frame twice a year for added protection. If you're in a region with heavy snow or extended freezing, covering the ottoman or moving it under a roof extends its life even further.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

You'll see this ottoman poolside--where the lightweight aluminum makes it easy to move and the wicker won't absorb splashes--or clustered in front of outdoor sofas and loveseats as a footrest. The backless design lets you slide it under a table when you need the floor space, or pair two side by side to form a makeshift coffee table. It also works as flexible seating when you need extra spots for guests near outdoor benches or outdoor accent chairs. At 46 inches wide, it seats two comfortably.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the aluminum frame rust if I leave this outside?

No--aluminum is naturally corrosion-resistant and does not absorb moisture, so the frame won't rust even in rain or salt air.

Is it light enough to move but heavy enough to stay put in wind?

At 25.1 pounds, you can reposition it easily, and the welded frame stays stable in normal wind; in severe storms, move it under cover or secure it.

Can this stay outside all year?

Yes, the aluminum frame and All-Weather Wicker are built for year-round exposure; store the Sunbrella cushions indoors during severe weather to keep them dry.

Will the finish or cushions fade in direct sun?

The Durium polyester enamel on the wicker and the 100% Sunbrella acrylic cushions both resist UV fading, so colors hold through full-sun exposure.

What's the best way to store this over winter?

The frame and wicker can stay out; bring cushions inside or into a deck box, and clean the frame with mild soap and water before covering or moving it under a roof.

Does this ship fully assembled, or is there setup required?

Standard delivery is free curbside; white-glove setup and assembly are available upon request for an additional fee.
