Havana Sunbrella Outdoor Club Chair

Details at a Glance

Virgin HDPE resin wicker in Aged Tobacco finish is engineered to resist moisture intrusion, UV degradation, and surface cracking through seasons of sun and rain exposure. The powder-coated aluminum frame won't rust, even in humid or coastal climates. The Havana Sunbrella outdoor club chair from Sunset West is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping.

How Well Do HDPE Wicker and Powder-Coated Aluminum Hold Up to Weather?

Virgin HDPE resin wicker resists UV rays that cause fading and brittleness, and its synthetic composition won't absorb water or support mildew growth the way natural rattan does. The fully welded aluminum frame is treated with a powder-coat finish that seals metal against oxidation, so it won't develop rust stains on deck boards or pool surrounds. Sunbrella solution-dyed acrylic fabric resists fading even in direct sun, and the cushion foam is engineered for quick-dry performance after rain. Together, these materials handle the conditions that destroy most outdoor accent chairs -- continuous UV exposure, summer downpours, and high humidity.

Do You Have to Bring This Chair Inside for Winter?

The wicker and aluminum frame can stay outside through winter, but you'll extend the chair's life if you cover it or move it under a patio roof during prolonged freezing rain or snow. Bring the cushions indoors or store them in a deck box when you're not using the chair for weeks at a time -- constant freeze-thaw cycles stress even high-resiliency foam. Wipe the wicker down occasionally and apply a UV-repellent product once or twice a season if the chair sits in full afternoon sun. The non-marking plastic glides let you reposition it easily across composite or wood decking without scratching.

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

This club chair works best anchoring a poolside lounge grouping or a covered patio conversation area where its 36-inch width and deep seat give you room to settle in with a book or a drink. Pair it with a matching loveseat from the Sunset West Havana collection or contrast it with teak side tables from our outdoor chairs section. The Aged Tobacco wicker and seven Sunbrella fabric options let you layer it into transitional schemes that mix organic texture with clean-lined frames.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stay outside all year?

The wicker and aluminum frame can remain outdoors year-round in most climates, but bring cushions inside or cover the chair during extended periods of freezing weather to protect the foam and fabric.

Will the wicker fade in direct sun?

Virgin HDPE resin wicker is UV-stabilized and resists fading, though applying a UV-repellent product once or twice per season helps maintain the Aged Tobacco finish in full-sun locations.

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

Yes -- the powder-coated aluminum frame and synthetic wicker both resist salt-air corrosion, making this chair a strong choice for beachfront patios and pool decks.

What does all-weather wicker mean?

All-weather wicker is virgin HDPE resin extruded to look like natural rattan but engineered to resist rain, UV exposure, and temperature swings without cracking or absorbing moisture.

Are Sunbrella cushions worth the investment?

Sunbrella fabric is solution-dyed acrylic that resists fading, mildew, and stains far better than standard outdoor textiles, so it's worth the cost if your chair will see regular sun and rain exposure.

Does this ship fully assembled?

The chair ships with free curbside delivery to the continental USA; assembly requirements are minimal, typically attaching cushions and checking frame connections. White-glove setup is available for an additional fee upon request.
