Grand Traverse Patio Lounge Chair & A Half Sunbrella

Details at a Glance

Aluminum resists rust in rain and humidity, woven vinyl wicker won't rot or expand when wet, and Sunbrella fabric blocks UV and mildew -- so this chair handles the weather that destroys cheaper seating in a season or two. The Lloyd Flanders Grand Traverse patio lounge chair-and-a-half with Sunbrella cushions is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. At 44.5 inches wide, it's oversized enough for one person to curl up or two to share, and the welded aluminum frame stays rust-free even in salt air.

How Well Does All-Weather Vinyl Wicker Hold Up Outdoors?

Lloyd Flanders weaves vinyl wicker using the original 1906 Lloyd Loom method -- thin vinyl strands wrapped around a wire core -- and it resists moisture, UV, and mildew far better than natural plant fibers. Unlike rattan or seagrass, vinyl wicker won't expand, crack, or rot when it gets wet, and the UV-stabilized material holds color in direct sun. The wicker sits over a rustproof welded aluminum frame with a Durium modified polyester enamel finish that shrugs off corrosion, so frame and weave both last years outside with minimal care.

Can This Chair Stay Outside All Winter?

Yes, the aluminum frame and vinyl wicker are built to stay out year-round, though bringing the Sunbrella cushions indoors or storing them in a waterproof box protects the foam and extends their life. Wipe the wicker down with warm water and mild detergent after pollen season or before you bring the cushions back out. You don't need to oil, seal, or wrap the frame -- aluminum doesn't rust, and the enamel finish guards against salt air and road spray if you're near the coast.

Where Does This Oversized Chair Work Best?

The 44.5-inch width fits under a covered patio or next to a pool where you want deep-seating comfort without a full chaise footprint. Pair it with a side table from the outdoor accent chairs collection for a reading corner, or cluster two of these with outdoor lounge chairs to build a conversation set. It's also a smart pick for a screened porch where the wicker adds texture and the aluminum frame keeps weight manageable -- read more about planning lounge zones on the outdoor lounge furniture guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Sunbrella cushion fabric fade in direct sun?

Sunbrella fabrics are solution-dyed, meaning the color goes all the way through the fiber, so they resist UV fade far longer than surface-dyed outdoor fabrics.

Is this suitable for a coastal or salt-air location?

Yes, the welded aluminum frame and vinyl wicker both resist corrosion from salt air, and the enamel finish adds another layer of protection against ocean spray.

How do I clean the wicker and cushions?

Wipe the wicker with warm water and mild detergent; the cushion covers are removable and machine-washable following Sunbrella's care instructions.

What's the difference between a chair-and-a-half and a chaise lounge?

A chaise has an extended leg rest so you recline fully; this chair-and-a-half is wider than a standard chair but keeps the upright seat-and-back shape for more flexible positioning.

Are aluminum lounge chairs comfortable for long stretches?

With deep-seating cushions like these -- foam core wrapped in polyester fill -- the aluminum frame provides firm support while the cushions deliver plush comfort for hours.

Does assembly or white-glove delivery cost extra?

Standard free curbside delivery is included; white-glove delivery, in-room placement, and assembly are optional paid services available upon request for an additional fee.
