The Mesa dining chair wraps UV-inhibited pecan vinyl wicker over a welded aluminum frame that resists rust, moisture, and salt air. This Lloyd Flanders Mesa Dining Chair is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Hand-woven in Michigan since 1906, every chair uses the original Lloyd Loom process for consistent quality and weather resistance.

Will the Wicker and Frame Hold Up to Rain and Sun?

Yes -- the vinyl wicker is made from 100% virgin material with UV inhibitors, and it won't absorb water, crack, or expand through rain, humidity, or sun exposure. The welded aluminum frame underneath resists corrosion without coatings that chip, so saltwater spray, poolside splashes, and morning dew won't trigger rust or degradation. This combination is what commercial resorts and restaurants specify when furniture has to perform year-round outdoors, because neither material weakens from moisture or UV rays over time.

What Kind of Cleaning and Off-Season Care Does Vinyl Wicker Need?

All you need is warm water and mild detergent -- the vinyl won't absorb stains or hold mold. Wipe the wicker down after pollen season or dusty weather, and that's it. If you live in a climate with harsh ice and snow, you can leave the chair out or bring it under cover; either way, the frame and wicker will survive. The optional Sunbrella cushions have hydrophobic fill that drains quickly, but most people pull cushions inside during deep winter to extend their life.

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

Pair the Mesa with a metal or glass-top table for covered dining areas, poolside zones, or restaurant terraces where you want the warmth of woven texture without the maintenance of natural rattan. Its contoured seat is comfortable enough for long meals even without cushions. The pecan finish bridges contemporary and transitional styles, so it layers well with pieces from our /collections/outdoor-dining-chairs and /collections/outdoor-accent-chairs collections.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is all-weather wicker the same as natural wicker?

No -- natural wicker is woven from plant fibers that rot and crack outdoors, while all-weather vinyl wicker is a synthetic strand that resists UV, moisture, and temperature swings without breaking down.

Can resin wicker be left out in the rain?

Yes. Vinyl wicker won't absorb water or expand, so it can stay out through rain, snow, and humidity without warping or developing mold.

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

The UV inhibitors in the vinyl reduce fading significantly, though all outdoor materials show some softening over years of constant sun. The pecan tone holds its color far better than untreated plastics.

Does the aluminum frame rust or corrode near saltwater?

No. Aluminum doesn't rust, and the welded construction has no fasteners that can corrode, so this chair handles coastal air and poolside chlorine without damage.

Do I need cushions, or is the wicker seat comfortable on its own?

The contoured wicker is comfortable as-is, but custom Sunbrella cushions add plushness for longer dinners and let you introduce color or pattern.

Does this ship assembled, and is delivery free?

Free curbside delivery to the continental USA is included. Assembly requirements are minimal -- the chair ships ready or with simple attachment of arms, depending on the model.
