Mackinac Wicker Outdoor Chaise Lounge Cushions

Details at a Glance

When your chaise lounger spends the summer beside a chlorinated pool under relentless sun, the wicker and frame have to answer for it -- fading, cracking, and corrosion show up fast on materials that can't handle the exposure. This 6-position adjustable chaise uses 100% virgin vinyl wicker with built-in UV inhibitors over a welded aluminum frame, so it won't fade, absorb moisture, or rust through seasons of poolside use. The Lloyd Flanders Mackinac wicker outdoor chaise lounge with waterproof cushions is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping.

Will This Wicker Fade or Crack After a Summer in the Sun?

No -- the wicker is 100% virgin vinyl formulated with UV inhibitors, which means the color is stable under direct sun and won't bleach or become brittle the way natural wicker does. Vinyl wicker also won't absorb water, so it dries quickly after rain and resists mildew in humid climates. The welded aluminum frame underneath is naturally corrosion-resistant, even in salt air or around pool chemicals, and it requires no seasonal refinishing.

Are the Cushions Actually Waterproof?

Yes -- the cushions have a moisture-resistant fabric cover over a foam core wrapped in polyester fill, so they shed rain and pool splashes without soaking through. You can choose from 59 Sunbrella fabric colors if you want maximum UV and stain resistance. The cushions are designed to stay on the chaise outdoors, though bringing them under cover during heavy storms or winter will extend their life.

Can This Stay Outside All Year?

It can -- the UV-resistant wicker and welded aluminum frame are engineered to handle year-round outdoor exposure without corroding or degrading. That said, if you live in a climate with freeze-thaw cycles or heavy snow, storing the chaise under a covered patio or using a furniture cover will protect the cushions and reduce wear on the frame's moving parts. The wicker itself will not crack in cold weather.

Where Does This Fit Best on a Patio or by the Pool?

Position it near the pool with a side table for drinks and sunscreen, or cluster two together in your outdoor lounge set for a resort-style layout. The two wheels at the head end make it easy to reposition as the sun moves. If you have a covered lanai or deck, pair it with other pieces from your outdoor lounge furniture collection to carry the natural wicker texture across the space.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is all-weather wicker the same as natural wicker?

No -- all-weather wicker is a synthetic material, in this case 100% virgin vinyl, that resists UV, moisture, and mildew, while natural wicker is plant fiber that absorbs water and breaks down outdoors.

Can resin wicker be left out in the rain?

Yes, this vinyl wicker won't absorb water and dries quickly after rain, so it can remain on your patio or poolside through wet weather without rotting or warping.

Can the cushion covers be removed and washed?

The cushions have a moisture-resistant fabric cover; check the care tag for washing instructions, as most Sunbrella and outdoor fabrics can be spot-cleaned or gently machine-washed.

What's the difference between a chaise lounge and a sun lounger?

The terms are often interchangeable -- sun loungers typically emphasize adjustable recline positions and outdoor durability, which this 6-position chaise delivers.

Does the aluminum frame rust near a pool?

No, welded aluminum is naturally corrosion-resistant and handles pool chemicals, salt air, and moisture without rusting or pitting.

Does this ship assembled or do I need to put it together?

It ships fully assembled -- you'll receive free curbside delivery to the continental USA, and the chaise is ready to use when it arrives.
