Select Sunbrella Cushion

Details at a Glance

This replacement cushion is wrapped in Sunbrella solution-dyed acrylic, a fabric engineered to resist UV fade, moisture, and mildew season after season. The Select Sunbrella cushion is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. You're getting the material outdoor hospitality and marine operators rely on when furniture sits in full sun or coastal spray.

How Does Sunbrella Fabric Hold Up to Sun and Rain?

Sunbrella solution-dyes the acrylic fiber before weaving, so color runs all the way through -- not applied as a surface treatment that UV rays can strip away. That means the fabric resists fading even when it sits in direct sun for hours every day. The tight weave sheds water and resists mildew growth, so a cushion that gets caught in a rainstorm dries quickly and doesn't develop the musty smell or dark spots you see on untreated cotton or polyester. It won't stop every drop in a downpour -- it's water-resistant, not waterproof -- but it handles the exposure patio cushions face all summer.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You can leave Sunbrella cushions out through light frost and occasional snow, but long-term winter storage inside a shed, garage, or deck box keeps the fill from staying compressed under ice and helps the fabric last longer. If you keep cushions on the furniture year-round, tip them on edge after rain so water doesn't pool. Spot-clean spills and pollen with mild soap and a soft brush, rinse with a hose, and let the cushion air-dry standing upright. Never put Sunbrella in a washing machine or dryer -- the agitation can damage the fill, and high heat can weaken seams.

Where Does This Cushion Work Best?

This replacement cushion fits standard outdoor seating and is built for spaces where UV exposure is constant -- a sunny deck, a poolside lounger, or a patio that faces west and catches afternoon light.

The solution-dyed Sunbrella fabric keeps its color through the seasons, so you can mix and match without worrying that one cushion will fade faster than another.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the cushions water resistant?

Yes -- the Sunbrella fabric resists moisture and sheds rain, though it's not waterproof. A cushion caught in a storm will get damp but dries quickly and won't mildew if you tip it on edge afterward.

Can the cushion covers be removed and washed?

These cushions are designed for spot-cleaning with mild soap and water, then rinsed with a hose. Do not machine-wash or tumble-dry -- it can damage the fill and seams.

Will the fabric fade in direct sun?

Sunbrella solution-dyes the acrylic fiber before weaving, so color runs through the material and resists UV fade far better than surface-printed fabrics. You'll see minimal color shift even after years of full-sun exposure.

Can this stay outside all year?

The fabric can handle frost and occasional snow, but storing cushions in a garage, shed, or deck box over winter keeps the fill from compressing under ice and extends the life of the seams.

How do I store it over winter?

Stack cushions flat in a dry, ventilated space like a deck box or garage. Make sure they're completely dry before you store them -- any trapped moisture can lead to mildew even in Sunbrella fabric.

Is assembly required, or does it ship ready to use?

The cushion ships ready to place on your furniture. Standard delivery is free curbside to the continental USA; white-glove placement and packaging removal are available for an additional fee upon request.
