Catalina Left Chaise Sectional Sofa Wicker

Details at a Glance

This left-chaise sectional combines a welded aluminum frame with Lloyd Loom vinyl wicker and FSC-certified teak accents, engineered to handle rain, full sun, and moisture without rusting or cracking. The Lloyd Flanders Catalina Left Chaise Sectional, an outdoor modular chaise available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping, anchors reconfigurable layouts for patios and poolside decks. At 73 inches deep and 39.5 inches wide, the chaise module seats two comfortably and connects to additional sections for custom L- or U-shaped arrangements.

How Does Lloyd Loom Wicker Hold Up to Rain and Direct Sun?

Lloyd Loom woven vinyl wicker -- in production since 1906 -- won't crack, peel, absorb moisture, or rot when exposed to rain or poolside splashes. The vinyl strands resist UV fade far better than natural rattan, and they dry quickly after storms. The welded aluminum frame underneath is corrosion-resistant and requires no refinishing, and the Durium powder-coat finish holds its color through years of direct sun and salt air. FSC-certified teak armrests weather to an antique gray patina naturally; you can leave them unfinished or apply teak sealer annually to maintain the original honey tone.

What Maintenance Does All-Weather Wicker Actually Need?

Hose the wicker down when pollen or dust builds up, and wipe the teak trim with a damp cloth. The cushions use moisture-resistant, fade-resistant, mildew-resistant, and water-repellent fabric with hypoallergenic, antimicrobial fill -- you can leave them out through light rain, but store them indoors during heavy downpours or winter to extend their lifespan. The aluminum frame and wicker can stay outside year-round in most climates; in regions with freeze-thaw cycles or deep snow, cover the frame or move it under a roof to prevent ice from pooling in seams.

Where Does a Left-Chaise Modular Sectional Work Best?

This piece anchors a corner of a covered patio or poolside lounge, with the chaise end facing the view and the 39.5-inch width forming the return. Pair it with additional outdoor modulars to build an L-shape along a railing or a U-shape around a fire table. The 18-inch seat height (with cushions) matches most outdoor sofas and loveseats, so you can mix straight sections and chaises in the same layout. For smaller decks, use the chaise as a standalone daybed and add a pair of outdoor accent chairs opposite.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is all-weather wicker the same as natural wicker?

No -- all-weather wicker is woven vinyl or resin that resists moisture and UV, while natural wicker is rattan or willow that cracks and mildews outdoors.

Can resin wicker be left out in the rain?

Yes, Lloyd Loom vinyl wicker will not absorb water, rot, or swell when exposed to rain or poolside splashes.

Can this stay outside all year?

The aluminum frame and wicker can remain outdoors year-round in mild climates; in freeze-thaw regions, cover the frame or move it under a roof, and store cushions indoors during winter.

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

The Durium powder-coat finish resists UV fade, and the vinyl wicker holds color far longer than natural rattan. Teak armrests will naturally patina to antique gray unless you apply sealer.

How do I configure a modular outdoor sectional?

Connect this left-chaise module to armless chairs, corner units, or right-arm sections to form L-shapes, U-shapes, or straight runs -- visit our outdoor living design guide for layout examples.

Does this ship fully assembled, and is shipping free?
