Mackinac Wicker Outdoor Furniture Dining Set for 8

Details at a Glance

All-weather wicker holds up to rain, humidity, and heavy-traffic use when it's built from 100% virgin vinyl with UV inhibitors woven over a welded aluminum frame. The Lloyd Flanders Mackinac Wicker Outdoor Dining Set for 8, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping, pairs that commercial-grade wicker construction with an FSC-certified teak tabletop and custom Sunbrella cushions for a outdoor dining set you can leave outside through the season.

How Does All-Weather Wicker Handle Rain and Full Sun?

This set uses 100% virgin vinyl wicker -- not natural rattan -- woven with UV inhibitors directly into the strand. That means it resists color fade from direct sun exposure and won't absorb water when it rains. The open-weave design lets moisture drain, and the wicker itself won't crack, peel, or go brittle after a summer of weather. The welded aluminum frame underneath is corrosion-resistant and holds its powder-coated finish for years, so you're not dealing with rust stains on the patio.

Will the Teak Table Need Oiling or Sealing?

No -- FSC-certified teak weathers to a silvery-gray patina naturally, and that change doesn't hurt the wood. Teak resists rot, warping, and splitting because of its natural oil content, so you don't have to seal or treat it to keep it stable outdoors. If you prefer the original honey tone, you can apply teak oil a couple times a season, but it's purely cosmetic. Either way, the 98.5-inch tabletop stays flat and solid through rain and humidity.

Do You Need to Bring This Set Inside for Winter?

The wicker, aluminum, and teak construction all handle freezing temperatures and moisture, but the Sunbrella cushions should come inside or go under cover when you're not using the set regularly. The cushion foam is moisture-resistant and the Sunbrella fabric is fade-proof, but storing them dry extends their life. The frames and table can stay out year-round, though a furniture cover helps keep dirt and debris off. If you stack the chairs for the season, they'll take up less deck space.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is all-weather wicker the same as natural wicker?

No -- all-weather wicker is 100% virgin vinyl with UV inhibitors, so it won't absorb water or fade like natural rattan. Natural wicker breaks down outdoors; this material is built for year-round exposure.

Can resin wicker be left out in the rain?

Yes, this vinyl wicker drains water through its open weave and won't swell, rot, or mildew. The aluminum frame underneath is rust-resistant, so both materials handle wet weather without damage.

Can this stay outside all year?

The wicker, aluminum, and teak can stay out through winter, but bring the Sunbrella cushions inside or store them in a weatherproof box to keep them dry during the off-season.

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

The wicker includes UV inhibitors to resist fading, and Sunbrella fabric is engineered for full-sun exposure. The teak will naturally shift to a silvery patina, which is a normal weathering process, not damage.

How many people does a 98.5-inch table seat?

Comfortably eight, which is what this set includes -- two armchairs and six side chairs. You'll still have room down the center for serving dishes.

Does this set ship fully assembled?

Yes, all eight chairs and the table arrive ready to use. Free curbside delivery is included to the continental USA; white-glove setup and placement are available for an additional fee upon request.
