Galloway Aluminum Outdoor Sofa

Details at a Glance

A fully welded aluminum frame won't corrode in rain, salt air, or humidity, and the 100% virgin vinyl weave is treated with UV inhibitors so it stays flexible and shape-retaining through years of direct sun. The Lloyd Flanders Galloway three-seat outdoor sofa with Sunbrella cushions is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. At 74.5 inches wide and 32.25 inches deep, it seats three comfortably in a lounge-style depth built for long evenings on the patio.

How Well Does Welded Aluminum and UV-Treated Vinyl Hold Up Outside?

Fully welded aluminum construction means no joints to trap moisture or rust -- the frame resists corrosion even in coastal climates where salt air degrades lesser metals. The virgin vinyl weave contains no fillers that harden or crack, and the UV inhibitor stays stable through sun exposure, preventing brittleness and color fade. Sunbrella fabric is solution-dyed, so the color runs through the entire fiber instead of sitting on the surface, and the hydrophobic melt-blown core inside the cushions repels water rather than absorbing it. All three layers -- frame, weave, and upholstery -- are engineered to handle year-round weather without splitting, rusting, or mildewing.

Do You Have to Bring the Galloway Inside for Winter?

The aluminum frame and vinyl weave can stay outside through winter without damage -- neither material is harmed by freeze-thaw cycles or snow. The Sunbrella cushions are water-resistant and quick-drying, but storing them indoors or in a breathable cover during prolonged rain extends the fabric's life and keeps them ready to use without a drying wait. If you leave the cushions out, the hydrophobic core sheds water, though they aren't fully waterproof and will take some time to dry after a heavy storm. The 81-pound frame is light enough to move under cover if you prefer, but heavy enough that it won't blow around in wind.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The 74.5-inch width and modern silhouette suit a covered patio, poolside lounge, or open deck where you want lounge-style seating for three. The matte black frame and tortoiseshell weave pair well with other pieces from the outdoor sofas and loveseats collection if you're building out a full conversation set, and the deep 32.25-inch seat depth works for long evening entertaining. Add an outdoor accessory or two -- weather-resistant pillows, a side table -- and anchor the space with an outdoor art piece that holds up to the elements the way the Galloway does.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this aluminum frame rust?

No -- fully welded aluminum is naturally corrosion-resistant and won't rust in rain, humidity, or salt air.

Is it light enough to move but stable in wind?

At 81 pounds, you can reposition it with two people, but it's heavy enough that it won't shift or tip in typical wind.

Can the Galloway stay outside all year?

Yes -- the frame and vinyl weave are built for year-round outdoor use; storing cushions indoors or under a breathable cover during winter extends their life.

Will the vinyl weave or cushion fabric fade in direct sun?

The vinyl weave has UV inhibitors to prevent fade and brittleness, and Sunbrella fabric is solution-dyed for long-term color retention in full sun.

Are the cushions waterproof?

The cushions are water-resistant with a hydrophobic core that repels water, but they're not fully waterproof and will absorb some moisture in heavy rain.
