Kirsten Performance Fabric Lounge Chair

Details at a Glance

The performance polyester upholstery on this chair repels moisture and cleans easily, tagged by the manufacturer for outdoor and commercial use when you apply protective covers during storms or freezing weather. The SUNPAN Kirsten Fabric Lounge Chair -- a performance-fabric accent chair with artisan-woven rattan backrest and matte black solid birch frame -- is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. At 19 pounds you can move it between the patio and the sunroom without help.

Will Performance Polyester Hold Up in Sun and Occasional Rain?

Yes -- 100% polyester performance fabric resists moisture so a spilled drink or mist from the sprinkler won't soak through, and the tight weave cleans with soap and water. This fabric doesn't claim UV-proof status, which is why you'll want to use a cover during weeks of direct afternoon sun or store the chair inside during the winter if you live where snow stays on the ground. It's built for three-season porches, covered patios, and living rooms that open onto the deck, not for year-round exposure in the desert or on an uncovered dock.

How Do You Protect the Rattan Back Outdoors?

Rattan is a natural fiber that handles indoor humidity and sheltered outdoor zones well but will crack and fade if left in driving rain or full desert sun for months. Bring this chair onto a covered porch or inside during heavy storms, and if you're coastal, rinse the rattan with fresh water every few weeks to clear salt residue. The artisan weaving means each piece shows natural color shifts and fiber-length differences -- that handcrafted variation is part of the design, not a defect. A fitted outdoor cover during the off-season keeps both the rattan and the fabric in shape.

Where Does This Chair Work Best?

Place it beside a floor lamp in a living room to create a reading corner, or angle it on a covered patio with a side table for morning coffee. The 26-inch width fits into tight balconies and bedroom nooks without crowding, and the gold foot caps and matte black birch give it enough detail to stand alone or pair with woven textures in your outdoor lounge chairs and outdoor accent chairs groups. If you're building a full seating area, browse the outdoor chairs collection for coordinating pieces that layer natural materials with performance fabrics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this chair stay outside all year?

It's tagged for outdoor use but needs a protective cover during extreme weather -- storms, snow, or months of direct sun -- to prevent rattan cracking and fabric fading.

Will the Linoso Ivory fabric stain if a drink spills?

The performance polyester repels moisture and wipes clean with soap and water, so most spills lift without leaving a mark.

Is this suitable for a coastal patio?

Yes, as long as you rinse the rattan with fresh water every few weeks to clear salt buildup and store the chair under a cover when storms roll in.

Does the rattan back look the same on every chair?

No -- artisan weaving creates natural variations in color, texture, pattern, and fiber length, so each chair is slightly different.

How much does it weigh, and can I move it easily?

It weighs 19 pounds, light enough to carry between rooms or onto the patio by yourself.

Is shipping included?

Yes, free curbside delivery to the continental USA is included; white-glove setup and assembly are available upon request for an additional fee.
