Koffi Fabric Contemporary Stool

Details at a Glance

Stainless steel doesn't rust when a patio gets soaked, and 100% polyester dries faster than cotton or linen after a summer rain. The SUNPAN Koffi Fabric Contemporary Stool, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping, pairs a double-cushioned polyester seat with a stainless steel base in your choice of dark bronze or gunmetal finish -- a backless accent stool that works poolside, on a covered patio, or indoors when you need extra seating without dragging out full chairs.

How Well Does Stainless Steel Hold Up to Rain and Humidity?

Stainless steel resists rust and corrosion because chromium in the alloy forms a protective oxide layer when exposed to moisture. That makes this base suited to humid climates, poolside spray, and even coastal decks where salt air corrodes plain steel within months. The polyester fabric sheds water faster than natural fibers and resists mildew growth, though you'll still want to bring cushions inside during heavy storms or when you won't be using the stool for weeks at a time.

Do You Need to Bring It Indoors Every Night?

You can leave it out on a covered patio or deck through warm months without issue -- the stainless steel won't rust overnight, and polyester tolerates morning dew. For extended rain or winter storage, move the stool into a garage or covered area so the fabric doesn't stay wet for days, which can lead to mildew even on synthetic materials. At nine pounds, it's light enough to carry with one hand when weather turns.

Where Does a Backless Stool Work Best on a Patio?

Tuck it beside lounge chairs as a footrest or side table, or pull a pair up to an outdoor dining table when you need overflow seating without the bulk of full dining chairs. The compact 19-inch square footprint fits under console tables or bar-height counters when not in use, and the hand-molded curves add texture whether you're pairing it with pieces from our outdoor bar stools collection or using it as a standalone accent near fire pits. The double cushion provides enough padding for guests to sit comfortably during a meal, and the lack of a back means it slides under counters the way traditional outdoor counter stools can't.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stool stay outside all year?

The stainless steel base won't rust, but you should store it in a garage or shed during winter to prevent fabric mildew and extend the life of the cushioning.

Will the polyester fabric fade in direct sun?

Polyester holds color better than cotton, but prolonged direct UV exposure will eventually lighten any fabric -- position the stool under an awning or umbrella for best longevity.

How do you clean polyester outdoor fabric?

Spot-clean spills with mild soap and water, then air-dry; for deeper cleaning, use a soft brush and rinse thoroughly.

Is stainless steel safe near saltwater or coastal areas?

Yes, stainless steel resists salt-air corrosion far better than painted or powder-coated steel, making it a good choice for beach houses or waterfront patios.

Does the stool arrive assembled?

Yes, it ships fully assembled and ready to use; free curbside delivery is included.
