Select Sunbrella Cushion

Details at a Glance

Fabric	Sunbrella solution-dyed acrylic
Fill	High-resiliency polyester fiber
Fastener	Marine-grade zipper
Care	Machine washable cover

This replacement cushion is built around Sunbrella solution-dyed acrylic fabric, which embeds color into every fiber before weaving so UV exposure won't strip it out the way surface-printed fabrics fade. The cushion is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The marine-grade zipper lets you pull the cover for machine washing when pollen and dirt accumulate.

How Well Does Solution-Dyed Sunbrella Resist Sun and Rain?

Sunbrella dyes the acrylic fiber through its entire thickness before the fabric is woven, so color stays locked in even after seasons of direct sun. The tight acrylic weave sheds rain and resists mildew growth when moisture sits on the surface. You're looking at fabric engineered to maintain color and structure through multi-year outdoor exposure, not an indoor textile repurposed for a patio. That said, sustained pooling water will eventually work through any seam, so drainage and airflow still matter.

Can You Leave the Cushion Outside Year-Round?

You can leave it out through mild winters, but extended freezing, snow load, and ice expansion will compress the fill and stress the seams faster than seasonal storage. Pull the cover and machine wash it before you store the cushion in a dry shed or garage bin -- mildew spores need only trapped moisture and time. If you don't have indoor space, a waterproof deck box with ventilation holes will work. Bring it in when nights drop below freezing consistently.

Where Does This Cushion Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

This works on any seating frame where the old cushion has faded or compressed -- chairs, benches, chaises in your main seating zone. Pair it with other pieces from our [outdoor replacement cushions](/collections/outdoor-replacement-cushions) collection to refresh an entire set without replacing furniture. If you're planning a broader refresh, our guide to [designing your dream outdoor living space](/pages/designing-outdoor-living-space) covers how to coordinate fabric choices across zones.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Sunbrella cushions water resistant?

Yes -- the solution-dyed acrylic fabric sheds rain and resists moisture penetration, though seams and zippers aren't fully waterproof. The fabric will dry quickly after a storm, but standing water that pools in a seat crease will eventually seep through.

Can the cushion cover be removed and washed?

Yes. The marine-grade zipper allows you to pull the cover and machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Air dry only -- heat can shrink acrylic.

Will the fabric fade in direct sun?

Solution-dyed Sunbrella embeds color through every fiber before weaving, so it resists UV fade far better than surface-printed or dyed fabrics. Expect the color to hold for years of full-sun exposure.

Does the fill hold its shape after rain?

The high-resiliency polyester fill resists compression and dries relatively quickly when the cover sheds most of the water. If the fill gets soaked through a seam, prop the cushion on its edge to let air circulate until it's fully dry.

How do I store it over winter?

Wash the cover, let everything dry completely, then store the cushion in a shed, garage, or ventilated deck box. Avoid sealing it in plastic -- trapped moisture will grow mildew even on Sunbrella.

Does the cushion ship fully assembled, or is there a delivery fee?

It ships ready to use via free curbside delivery to the continental USA. No assembly is required, and standard delivery is included at no charge.
