What's Sunbrella?
Sunbrella Fabric has been hailed as the best in outdoor cushion fabrics. Manufactured by Glen Raven Inc., Sunbrella fabrics are used for a variety of applications including outdoor furniture, indoor furniture, boat covers, convertible automobile tops, and awnings. Highly durable, water-resistant, and fade-resistant, Sunbrella fabrics are so well engineered that you need to see it to believe it.
Sunbrella fabrics are easy to wash, extremely low maintenance, and mold/mildew resistant. Cushions use a slip off cover that can be tossed in the laundry cycle to remove any dirt spots.
Why is Sunbrella so Good?
Many patio shoppers wonder if this is just a sales gimmick and for good reason. Nobody wants to be tricked into buying expensive fabrics that offer no added value. Rest assured, Sunbrella fabrics are used across the industry and for good reason.
1. All-Weather Mold, Mildew, Chloride, & Water Resistant Fabrics
The biggest selling point for Sunbrella Outdoor Fabrics is its all-weather materials. Sunbrella fabrics prevent mold and mildew from growing. This means that they can be left outside during light rain showers.
2. UV Fabric
Sunbrella was awarded the “International Seal of Recommendation for UV Fabric/Umbrellas/Awnings” in 2006 by The Skin Cancer Foundation.
3. Sewing Thread
Sunbrella fabrics last much longer than cheap cushions because they use Tenara Sewing Thread. Tenara sewing thread is made from 100% expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) which is 3 times stronger than conventional PTFE.
4. Eco-Friendly
Sunbrella fabric is manufactured to maximize efficiency and minimize environmental impact. No water is wasted in the color-saturation process. Their unique technique reduces water and energy consumption.
5. Extended Lifespan
Sunbrella fabrics have an estimated lifespan of 10 years under heavy outdoor use. This is 3 times longer than other outdoor fabrics on the market.

We bought this set to replace our rattan set, which looked nice but was showing some wear and tear. We love the aluminum look and it wasn’t too difficult to assemble. It’s important to know that if you order the sunbrella option, you get the dark grey cover set as well. All pillows have the grey canvas covers on them in the box. The sunbrella covers come separately.

Great deep seats, only thing it didn’t come with is the velcro for the cushions, easy fix to buy! Frame is a true grey and the cushions are more of a charcoal. It is very light weight but seems like a very durable set.

Lightweight, Easy to assemble and looks nice in our space. Just as advertised. Comes in a few pieces so you may Need to wait for multiple boxes.

Amazing set, had it for a year now. It does not rust (it was, however, covered during winter in Midwest), looks contemporary, pillows stay in place and do not fade (thanks Sunbrella).

Best product for the price. Very easy to put together. Would purchase again. I usually don’t write reviews, but decided to because unlike most other things I’ve bought online in the past, this looked better than I expected and there was clearly some thought put into how to ease the process of putting the pieces together.

After reading all the other reviews, I bought this set needing a dark gray modern option. It’s very well built, the frame is a nice thick powder coat finish with no blemishes upon arrival, thick enough to feel of quality but not too heavy. The cushions are thick and the support of the frame under is great. I read a review about the table not being durable, I havent had any problems and I have 2 kids that use it daily for meals at lunch. There is a nice fabric cover on the back of cushions to cover the frame. The assembly is pretty easy.

It looks exactly like the pictures that you see online. I just found that the size was a little small then what I imagined. It was Easy to put togetherI put it together by myself it took me about 45 minutes for each section.

This set is beautiful, it’s compact style is great for a smaller space without sacrificing comfort. The cushions are a little hard but nice and thick which doesn’t bother me. I also assembled it quickly and easily. If I had to complain about anything it would be the grey painted glass on the table top but honestly after a while you really don’t notice it’s all . It was expensive for me but I think worth the investment.

I love this set. I have bought over 20 sets for clients. The dark grey cushions fade well but the khaki doesn’t fade that well. They are stiff but break in nicely
Gillian C. –
Good set. Has held up in the weather and I haven’t experienced in rusting in the 3 years that I have had the piece. Cushions are not the most comfortable, but they do their job.

Love it!! Nice firm cushions!! So many compliments!!
Esther C. –
This outdoor furniture is not only stylish but it is sturdy and comfortable!! Easy to put together once you do one piece and get the hang of it. I do suggest 2 ppl to put in together though.
Rochelle B. –
Wow. I love the contemporary styling of this set. The L shaped sectional is perfect for stretching out on. The Sunbrella seat covers were a nice upgrade.
Jeff H. –
Great set and very comfortable! I was worried about assembly but it was very easy to put together and high quality. They told are included and extra hardware is also included

Now this is a quality patio sectional, since I am using it in an enclosed patio it should last me a life time. The cushions are very thick and firm but they break in very quickly but retain their shape and fullness. I purchased some velcro straps that I used under the cushions to connect the frame together as it would move easily while sitting on it but this has solved that issue while being completely hidden from view. I love this sectional.
Martina M. –
Very nice overall. Corner seat when set up as pictured is not really usable. The only quality issue we noticed was on the corner section where one of the aluminum bars holding up the cushion was soldered on notably crooked and an area on the back rail was missing a portion of the sealant. Not noticeable with the cushions on. Assembly fairly easy. Lighter than expected but seems sturdy.
Denise –
Great quality and certainly matched what I saw online. Colors are modern and neutral to blend with other shades. The seats are comfortable, and high quality, yet easy to move around if needed.

We love it!! Look like in the picture. Look amazing in our porch. Perfect size. Easy to ensamble . The cushions are thick. 100% recommended!

These sectionals look so high end and so much better than anything in stores at the moment. The pictures don’t do them justice. I got two of them for my patio and they look absolutely amazing. I paired them with a different table because I wasn’t a fan of the table style as much, but still totally worth the price for the quality.
Amie M. –
Husband put together and was very impressed of the quality. Seems to be very sturdy. Looks great and will have many nights outside using it. The cushions I think will need some time to break in they are a little stiff at first it seems. Material seems good though.

My set gets a lot of wear & tear here in Florida, with grandkids and adult family/friends every day. The set always looks good since purchased a year ago. In fact, I first purchased a set for my Ky home & liked it so much I purchased more for the FL. one.
