Reliance Contract Strap 16" Lay-Flat Stacking Chaise

Details at a Glance

Chlorine-soaked pool decks, coastal salt spray, and full-summer sun exposure kill most chaise lounges within two seasons -- marine-grade polymer frames don't rust, warp, or need refinishing regardless of what you throw at them. The Reliance Contract Strap 16-Inch Lay-Flat Stacking Chaise is a 78-inch four-position stackable pool lounger available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Twelve to fifteen units nest in six feet of vertical space for off-season storage or event rotation, and the armless sled-base design fits twenty-five percent more loungers per deck than armed models.

How Does Marine-Grade Polymer Hold Up to Chlorine and Salt Air?

Marine-grade polymer is UV-stabilized resin engineered specifically for continuous exposure to pool chemicals and coastal environments. It won't rust the way aluminum frames do when protective coatings chip, and it won't splinter or rot like wood exposed to standing water. The material resists fading under direct sun and requires no annual sealing or refinishing -- hose it down at season's end and stack it. You'll find MGP frames on commercial resort decks where replacement cycles matter more than up-front cost.

Can You Leave This Chaise Outside Year-Round?

Yes, the frame will survive winter weather without damage, though off-season stacking indoors extends the life of any outdoor furniture. If you're storing it outside, stack the units and cover them to keep leaves and debris out of the strap channels. Marine-grade polymer doesn't crack in freeze-thaw cycles the way cheaper resins do, but UV exposure is cumulative -- a covered stack lasts longer than one left fully exposed for six months straight.

Where Does a Stackable Chaise Work Best?

Pool decks, hotel terraces, and resort patios benefit most from stackable designs that maximize guest capacity during peak months and store compactly when demand drops. The armless profile fits more loungers per linear foot of deck than wide-arm models, and the sled base stays stable on uneven surfaces or soft ground like grass.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the gray finish fade in full sun?

Marine-grade polymer includes high-cycle UV stabilizers that resist fading far better than painted aluminum or powder-coated steel. Expect gradual lightening over years of continuous exposure, not the rapid bleaching you see with lower-grade resins.

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

Yes -- marine-grade polymer was developed for exactly that environment. It won't corrode, pit, or develop the white oxidation you see on aluminum frames near the ocean.

How many positions does the back recline to?

Four positions including full lay-flat, adjustable for reading upright, lounging at a recline, or sunbathing completely horizontal.

How many chaises can you stack together?

Twelve to fifteen units nest in approximately six feet of vertical space, depending on how tightly you compress the stack.

Does assembly involve complicated hardware?

No -- minimal assembly takes about fifteen minutes and uses basic fasteners. The frame ships in large sub-assemblies, not hundreds of small parts.

How does shipping work for a made-to-order chaise?

Free curbside delivery to the continental USA with a four-to-six-week lead time from order placement. White-glove setup is available upon request for an additional fee.
