Lazarus Cement White Outdoor Bench

Details at a Glance

Fiber-reinforced concrete stands up to full sun, rain, and temperature swings without cracking or fading the way bare cement or resin can. The Moe's Home Lazarus Cement White Outdoor Bench -- a 55-inch-wide, three-person bench -- is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. At 114 pounds, it stays put in wind and provides stable seating indoors or out.

How Does Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Hold Up in Weather?

Fiber-reinforced concrete is cast cement with added fiber strands that resist cracking under impact and thermal cycling. It's UV resistant, so the white finish won't yellow or chalk in direct sun. Unlike wood, it won't rot in moisture, and unlike steel, it won't rust in salt air. The surface is non-porous once sealed, which means rain beads off instead of soaking in and causing freeze-thaw damage in winter.

Can This Stay Outside All Year?

Yes -- fiber-reinforced concrete is engineered for year-round outdoor exposure. If you're in a freeze-thaw climate, check that the surface is sealed and wipe standing water off the seat before hard freezes to prevent surface pitting over time. In coastal zones, rinse salt spray off monthly. You don't need to bring it inside; the 114-pound weight makes that impractical anyway, and the material is designed to handle snow, ice, and sun without a cover.

Where Does a 55-Inch Concrete Bench Work Best?

The 55-inch width seats three adults at a dining table -- pair it with other pieces from our outdoor benches collection for flexible seating, or use it as a long entryway perch. The clean cement white pairs with teak tables and powder-coated metal outdoor accent chairs, and the low 18.5-inch seat height makes it easy to get on and off for kids or elderly users. It works equally well indoors in a mudroom or along a window, and you can layer in weatherproof pillows from our outdoor accessories collection for back support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the white finish fade in direct sun?

The fiber-reinforced concrete is UV resistant and designed for outdoor use, so the white finish holds up in full sun without yellowing or chalking over time.

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

Yes -- concrete doesn't rust, and fiber reinforcement prevents cracking. Rinse salt spray off monthly to keep the surface clean and prevent mineral buildup.

How much does it weigh and is it hard to move?

It weighs 114 pounds, which keeps it stable in wind and high-traffic areas but makes relocation a two-person job.

Do I need cushions for concrete seating?

Cushions are optional -- the smooth concrete surface is comfortable for short-term seating and much easier to clean than upholstered pieces.

Is assembly required or does it arrive ready to use?

The bench is solid-cast concrete and arrives fully assembled. Standard delivery is free curbside; optional white-glove setup and in-room placement are available for an additional fee.

Can I use this indoors as an entryway or dining bench?

Absolutely -- it's rated for indoor or outdoor use, and the contemporary white finish pairs with modern dining tables, console arrangements, or mudroom storage.
