Alpine Teak Wooden Outdoor Pool Chaise

Details at a Glance

This Lloyd Flanders chaise is built from solid premium teak -- a wood whose natural oils resist pool moisture, chlorine splash and direct sun without rotting or warping. The Alpine Teak Wooden Outdoor Pool Chaise, featuring an adjustable backrest and rear-mounted wheels, is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Contemporary weather-resistant rope wrapping over the brown teak frame adds visual texture while standing up to rain and UV exposure.

How Well Does Teak Hold Up in a Poolside Environment?

Premium-grade teak contains natural silica and oils that repel moisture and resist insect damage, making it one of the strongest outdoor woods for wet areas. Around a pool, teak won't rust like ferrous metals or degrade like untreated pine -- it handles chlorine splash, humidity and direct sun season after season. Over time the brown finish will weather to a silver-grey patina, a natural protective layer that doesn't compromise the wood's structural integrity. The rope wrapping on this chaise is engineered for outdoor exposure and won't fray or fade quickly under UV.

Does Teak Need to Be Oiled, and What About Winter Storage?

You don't have to oil teak -- its natural oils mean it survives perfectly well untreated. If you prefer to keep the warm brown tone, apply a teak sealer annually; left alone, it will grey naturally and still perform. In mild climates you can leave this chaise outside year-round; in regions with freeze-thaw cycles or heavy snow, store it in a shed or cover it with a breathable tarp to prevent ice buildup in the joints. The Sunbrella cushion's hydrophobic SMS jacket sheds water, but bring the cushion indoors or store it in a deck box over winter to extend its life.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The integrated rear wheels make it easy to reposition this chaise from full sun to shade as the day shifts, so it works anywhere on a concrete pool deck, wood patio or gravel courtyard. Pair it with other pieces from our outdoor loungers collection to create a cohesive sunbathing zone, or flank a small outdoor accessories side table for drinks and sunscreen. For covered porches, mix the teak with outdoor accent chairs in matching rope or wicker to tie the look together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will teak turn grey, and can I stop it?

Yes, untreated teak naturally weathers to silver-grey over months of sun and rain. You can slow or prevent it by applying a teak sealer once a year, or embrace the patina -- the wood's strength isn't affected either way.

Can this chaise stay outside all year?

In mild climates, yes. In areas with hard freezes or heavy snow, bring it into a garage or cover it with a breathable tarp to protect the joints and prevent ice damage.

What makes the cushion water-resistant?

The cushion uses Spring Bond Premium fill wrapped in a hydrophobic SMS jacket that sheds water, then covered in Sunbrella fabric. It dries quickly after rain but isn't fully waterproof, so store it indoors during long wet spells.

How does the adjustable backrest work?

The backrest ratchets into multiple positions -- from upright for reading to fully reclined for sunbathing -- so you can customize the angle throughout the day.

Do the wheels make it easy to move around the pool deck?

Yes, the rear-mounted wheels let you roll the chaise from sun to shade or reposition it for cleaning without lifting, even when the cushion is on.

Does assembly or white-glove delivery cost extra?

Assembly is minimal -- the wheels are pre-installed. Standard curbside delivery is free to the continental USA; white-glove delivery, in-room placement and any additional setup are available for an extra fee upon request.
