This cushion is sturdy and comfortable. However, I bought a chaise lounge cushion and a bench cushion from in the Lagoon Stripe fabric. They were beautiful, a nice tropical blue/green combo. But about 3 weeks after we put them on the patio furniture, we had a mild summer rainfall (nothing extreme, this is the Pacific NW and we have a mild climate during Spring Fall.) A few days later I went out to the yard to discover that my lovely green/blue cushions were now a vivid PURPLE/green color. I asked if I could exchange (not return for cash back) the cushions but was told only that Greendale Home Fashions only will take returns during the 1st 30 days after purchase. I described the situation, that the cushions were fine the first "30 days" but to no avail. Their only suggestion was that I should contact the manufacturer. I.e. they totally passed the buck and do not stand behind this item. A few emails later they did provide me with the name of the manufacturer but no luck there. So, I now have 4 Greendale cushions (two solid green, and these two that were bought as a coordinated ensemble) that I'm stuck with 2 of which are ugly.

In sum, if you don't care if your cushions fade a month after purchase, these are ok. But don't expect Greendale to stand by you if your cushions fade or fall apart or whatever...as they will only keep your money and refer you to the manufacturer.

I bought the chaise cushions and the bistro chair cushions. After only two weeks, the blue stripes have turned purple and the green ones have turned gold. The bistro cushions are under cover and are not exposed to the direct sun so their color has remained true. I would not recommend these if they are going to be exposed to the harsh sunlight.

Because this cushion was advertised as "outdoor," I was expecting water-repellant material. When it got wet, it took a long time to dry out!

These faded in two weeks. They look terrible now. The other cushions that look the same are made of different fabric and did not fade. Very disappointed in these.

Granted, I live in AZ and the sun is already shining strongly but the fade was noticeable in about a week. That being said it doesn't seem to have faded a whole lot more since. The cushion is thick and comfy. I have not tried washing/hosing it yet.

I know this wwasn't a brand-name sun resistant fabric but to easily notice fade in one week? The next month or two should determine whether I can keep the 3-star or whether it deserves a downgrade.
