Rae Performance Fabric Outdoor Armless Accent Chair

Details at a Glance

Water-resistant polyester dries quickly after poolside splashes or unexpected rain, while the antiseptic plywood frame resists mold and mildew across seasonal temperature swings. The Moe's Home Rae Performance Fabric Outdoor Armless Accent Chair brings lounge-style comfort to patios and covered porches with a rounded silhouette that stands 31 inches tall, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Plastic legs stay stable on damp surfaces without corroding, and the foam-core cushioning wrapped in polyfill balances supportive density with plush surface feel.

How Well Does Water-Resistant Polyester Handle Rain and Humidity?

The 100% polyester upholstery repels moisture on contact and dries faster than cotton or linen blends, so a morning shower won't leave the chair soaked through the afternoon. Water-resistant fabrics shed light rain and poolside drips, though they're not fully waterproof -- puddles that sit for hours can soak through seams. The antiseptic plywood core resists mold and mildew better than untreated wood, making it a practical choice for humid coastal zones or shaded patios where airflow is slower. UV exposure will eventually lighten any outdoor fabric; rotating the chair's placement or positioning it under a pergola extends color life in full-sun installations.

Do You Have to Cover It or Bring It Inside for Winter?

The plywood frame and plastic legs handle temperature swings without cracking, but water-resistant polyester isn't the same as freeze-proof -- snow and ice melt can seep into the cushioning if left uncovered for weeks. Store the chair in a garage or shed during deep winter, or use a fitted furniture cover rated for outdoor use. Before storing, wipe the frame and legs clean and let the upholstery air-dry completely to prevent mildew from forming in an enclosed space. In mild climates where freezing is rare, a waterproof cover on the patio is usually enough.

Where Does This Armless Chair Fit Best on a Patio?

The rounded, open-sided profile works well in compact corners where a traditional club chair feels bulky -- try pairing it with outdoor accent chairs in a conversational grouping on a covered porch, or anchor it beside a side table in a sunroom that blends outdoor chairs with indoor furnishings. Its 33.75-inch width suits balconies and poolside nooks, and the three color options -- Cream, Beige, Deep Yellow -- coordinate with coastal or contemporary palettes. For open-air patios, cluster two Rae chairs with a low coffee table to create a dedicated lounge zone separate from your outdoor dining chairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this chair stay outside all year?

The frame and legs handle year-round exposure in mild climates, but snow and prolonged moisture can soak the cushioning -- store it indoors or under a waterproof cover during deep winter.

Will the polyester upholstery fade in direct sun?

Water-resistant polyester offers some UV resistance, but any outdoor fabric will lighten over time in full sun -- rotate placement or use under a pergola to slow fading.

Is it suitable for a coastal or salt-air location?

Yes -- the plastic legs won't rust, and the antiseptic plywood resists mold better than untreated wood, though you should rinse salt spray off the upholstery periodically to prevent buildup.

How do you clean the upholstery?

Wipe the fabric with a damp cloth for routine dust; spot-clean spills with mild soap and water, then let it air-dry completely.

Does the Rae chair require assembly?

Minimal assembly is typically required -- usually attaching the plastic legs to the frame -- and full instructions ship with the chair.

Is free shipping available?

Yes, LOOMLAN Outdoor provides free curbside delivery to the continental USA with no minimum order.
