Select Sunbrella Cushion

Details at a Glance

This cushion is built around Sunbrella fabric, which resists UV fade, moisture penetration, and mildew growth season after season. The Select Sunbrella Cushion, an outdoor replacement cushion available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping, is the practical choice when you're replacing worn patio seating rather than starting over with new furniture.

Why Does Sunbrella Fabric Hold Up Better Than Standard Outdoor Textiles?

Sunbrella uses solution-dyed acrylic -- the pigment is locked into the fiber before it's woven, not printed on afterward. That means UV rays can't strip color from the surface the way they do with cheaper fabrics. Rain beads off instead of soaking through, and the material's breathability keeps moisture from being trapped inside where mildew takes hold. The fabric won't crack or stiffen in cold weather, and it dries quickly after a storm. This is the same commercial-grade textile used on yacht canopies and resort seating, engineered for years of direct sun and wet conditions.

Do You Have to Bring This Cushion Inside for Winter?

You can leave Sunbrella cushions outside through light winter weather, but stacking snow and standing water will shorten their life. Off-season storage in a shed or garage keeps the fill from compressing and the fabric from sitting wet for weeks at a time. If you can't store them, flip them on edge so water drains off or cover them with a breathable tarp -- never sealed plastic, which traps condensation. Brush off dirt and hose down the fabric once or twice a season; that's all the cleaning it typically needs.

Where on a Patio Does a Replacement Cushion Make the Most Sense?

You'll use this on existing lounge chairs, benches, or sectional frames where the original cushions have faded or the fill has broken down. It's the faster fix when the furniture frame is still solid but the seating surface isn't. Pair it with other pieces from our outdoor replacement cushions collection to refresh a full seating group without replacing the underlying structure, especially when you're working with teak or aluminum frames that outlast their original fabric by years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the cushions water resistant?

Yes -- Sunbrella solution-dyed acrylic sheds rain and resists moisture penetration. The fabric is breathable, so it dries quickly and won't trap water inside.

Can the cushion covers be removed and washed?

Sunbrella fabric can be cleaned in place by brushing off dirt and hosing it down with water. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and a soft brush, then rinse thoroughly.

Can this stay outside all year?

It can handle light winter weather, but heavy snow and prolonged soaking will wear it down faster. Store it in a dry spot during the off-season or keep it elevated and covered when not in use.

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

Sunbrella's solution-dyed construction resists UV fade far better than printed fabrics. The color is locked into the fiber, not applied to the surface, so years of sun exposure cause minimal change.

How is this cushion shipped?

Free standard curbside delivery to the continental USA. White-glove service, in-room placement, and packaging removal are available upon request for an additional fee.

How do I store it over winter?

Keep it in a shed, garage, or basement where it stays dry. If you leave it outside, flip it on edge so water drains off or use a breathable cover -- never sealed plastic, which traps moisture and encourages mildew.
