Can lounge set cushions stay outside?

As summer ends and the weather turns cooler, many people wonder: can lounge set cushions stay outside, or does that damage them? Here’s what you need to know.

Which cushions are truly weather-resistant?

Look for:

• Water-repellent or waterproof covers

• UV-resistant fabrics

• Quick-dry materials

The facts

• Can stay outside: All-weather cushions (Sunbrella, Sunproof, Amai), waterproof, or Quick Dry Foam.

• Should not stay outside: standard cotton or polyester cushions without coating, they absorb water and mildew quickly.

In fair weather, good-quality outdoor cushions can stay out for weeks. During long rainy periods or winter, store them.

How to make them last longer

• Choose washable covers

• Air them regularly

• Dry immediately after rain

• Flip them occasionally

Conclusion

High-quality all-weather cushions can stay outside in summer. In autumn and winter, bring them in to keep them fresh and long-lasting.
