Those look great, do they get smoking hot in the sun?

Not really. Obviously, the darker colors will be warmer, but even our red one doesn’t seem to get too hot. But, if we ever sit in them while in the full sun, we are usually wet from just getting out of the pool or we’ll throw a towel down. To help reduce the discoloration over time, be sure and spray and wipe them with a good UV protectant about very three months. Colors will really “pop” nicely. These chairs are on the expensive side, but they are a lasting investment. We got ours from Premium Poly Patios online. They are running some good sales right now.

The Aruba chairs are the Vineyard Curved back "large" ($319/ea in Aruba); the Lime chairs are Curved backed standard (a little smaller/lighter) ($199/ea from Home Depot). The smaller chairs are also closer to the ground, where the Vineyard is a more upright sitting Adirondack.

Any idea on how long these tend to last without fading etc?

 

[steveinaz]

My first set, so I have no idea...

In AZ, probably 30 minutes. In MD, I've had our oldest for about 10 years, mostly sun, and they still look quite nice. May have faded some but not noticeably. And more importantly, they don't have any chalky feeling whatsoever.

I’ve had the two multi-colors poly lumber Adirondack chairs for two years in FL. First year was outside and last year in the pool cage. The blue Polywood I got on sale last year. These are never put away but the pool cage screen decreases the UV a bit. Love them all, but appreciate the cup holders on the poly lumber Adirondacks, plus they fold up, great for hurricane season here if we need to clear the decks and store.

People are putting these on sunshelfs without issues as well. Correct?

See this post for a direct reply from Polywood regarding this. But your question remains for others.

Polywood chairs on sun shelf?

 

[Jean-ji]

I use the $20 molded color chairs from Lowe’s for the sun shelf. They are lightweight and easy to move around. It’s the blue one here:

The hardware is stainless, I don't see why setting them in the water would be an issue. You'd have to have a pretty deep tanning ledge to reach the lowest screws...
