Frontier Aluminum Outdoor Ottoman

Details at a Glance

Aluminum frames resist corrosion season after season, so your patio furniture doesn't show rust stains or pitting after a wet spring. This ottoman pairs that aluminum strength with all-weather wicker and a 100% Sunbrella cushion built to handle UV exposure and moisture. The Lloyd Flanders Frontier rectangular ottoman is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping.

Will Aluminum Furniture Rust or Corrode Outdoors?

No -- aluminum forms a natural oxide layer that blocks corrosion, so you won't see rust or flaking even in humid or coastal climates. This ottoman's frame is finished with Durium modified polyester enamel for added weather resistance. The Lloyd Loom all-weather wicker is a moisture-resistant synthetic weave that won't mildew, and the Sunbrella cushion is solution-dyed acrylic that resists UV fading, mildew, and rain. You can leave it on the patio through summer thunderstorms without worrying about rust or rot.

How Do You Care for This Ottoman Between Seasons?

Rinse the aluminum frame with mild soap and water, then apply automotive wax twice a year to keep the finish bright. Vacuum the wicker to clear dirt from the weave, and spot-clean the Sunbrella cushion with diluted dish soap -- the fabric dries quickly. The ottoman can stay outside year-round in most climates, though storing the cushion indoors during snow or prolonged rain extends its life. At 26.2 pounds, it's light enough to move to a shed or garage if you prefer to clear the deck for winter.

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

Position it in front of a lounge chair or chaise as a footrest, or set it at the center of a conversation group to hold a tray of drinks. Its 28.54-inch width makes it wide enough to serve as a low coffee table. Pair it with pieces from the outdoor accent chairs collection to build a cohesive seating area, or browse the outdoor ottomans selection to add matching footstools around the patio. Its 20 finish options let you coordinate the powder-coat color with existing outdoor accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

The Durium powder-coat finish and Sunbrella cushion are both UV-resistant, so they won't fade noticeably through years of full-sun exposure. Waxing the frame twice a year keeps the color vibrant.

Can this stay outside all year?

Yes -- the aluminum frame and all-weather wicker are built for year-round outdoor use, even in freeze-thaw cycles. Storing the cushion indoors during snow protects the fabric.

Is it light enough to move but heavy enough not to blow over?

At 26.2 pounds, you can rearrange it easily, and it's stable enough for normal wind. In severe storms, tuck it against a wall or weight it with a tray.

Can you use an outdoor ottoman as a coffee table?

Yes -- its 28.54-inch width and stable flat top hold trays, lanterns, and books as well as a low table.

How do you clean the all-weather wicker?

Vacuum to remove debris, then wipe with mild soap and water. The synthetic weave dries quickly and doesn't trap moisture.
