Mackinac Wicker Outdoor Swivel Glider Chair Cushions

Details at a Glance

The welded aluminum frame resists corrosion in coastal air and poolside spray, while the virgin vinyl wicker includes UV inhibitors to slow fading through years of full sun. The Lloyd Flanders Mackinac Wicker Outdoor Swivel Glider Chair is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Dual-motion functionality combines 360-degree swivel rotation with smooth glider rocking -- no exposed hardware to rust or seize.

How Well Does Virgin Vinyl Wicker Handle Sun and Rain?

Virgin vinyl wicker contains no filler materials, only pure vinyl compounded with UV inhibitors that slow color shift under direct sun exposure. The material stays soft and pliable even after seasons outdoors -- it won't crack, split, or become brittle the way natural wicker does when wet. Rain beads off the surface, and the open weave allows air circulation to prevent moisture from pooling underneath. All outdoor wicker experiences some fade over years, but UV inhibitors in virgin vinyl mean the shift is gradual rather than sudden. Hand-woven over a welded aluminum frame, the wicker won't sag or unravel when wet.

Can This Stay Outside Year-Round?

The aluminum frame and virgin vinyl wicker can remain outdoors through winter without rust or structural damage. The hydrophobic cushioning resists water absorption, though it's best to store cushions indoors or in a dry deck box during extended rain or snow to prevent mildew on the fabric covers. Brush off snow promptly to avoid weight stress on the frame, and hose down the wicker in spring to remove salt residue if you're near the coast. The swivel and glider mechanisms are metal-on-metal with sealed bearings -- they don't need oiling and won't freeze in cold weather.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is all-weather wicker the same as natural wicker?

No -- all-weather wicker is synthetic (vinyl or resin) and resists moisture and UV damage, while natural wicker is plant fiber that cracks and mildews outdoors.

Can resin wicker be left out in the rain?

Yes, virgin vinyl wicker sheds rain and dries quickly. The open weave allows drainage, and the material won't rot or soften when wet.

Are the cushions water resistant?

The polyester fiber fill is hydrophobic and repels water, but the fabric covers will absorb moisture over time. Bring cushions inside during storms or store them in a waterproof container.

Can the cushion covers be removed and washed?

The source facts don't specify removable covers -- contact LOOMLAN Outdoor at 833-566-6526 to confirm whether these cushions have zippered covers.

How much weight can this swivel glider hold?

The welded aluminum frame supports up to 275 lbs.
