HiTeak Lance Teak Outdoor Sunlounger with Sunbrella Cushion

Premium teak sunloungers with convenient features sound appealing until you discover most designs sacrifice mobility or drink storage for visual appeal. The HiTeak Lance is a 30-inch Contemporary teak sunlounger built for poolside relaxation with five reclining positions, available at LOOMLAN with free shipping to the continental US. This sustainably sourced teak lounger includes built-in wheels for effortless repositioning, a slide-out drink tray, and made-to-order Sunbrella cushions in three colorways. HiTeak sources their premium teak from Costa Rica and Nicaragua, combining naturally rot-resistant wood with marine-grade stainless steel hardware that won't corrode in coastal or poolside environments. The open slat construction prevents water pooling while the 250-pound weight capacity handles extended relaxation sessions.

What Is a Sunlounger?

A sunlounger is an outdoor reclining chair designed for extended lounging and sunbathing, typically measuring 78-84 inches in length with multiple backrest positions. Unlike standard patio chairs, a sunlounger fully supports the legs and feet while offering adjustable positioning from upright seating to completely flat. Sunloungers are also known as chaise lounges, pool loungers, or deck chairs, best for poolside areas, resort terraces, and private patios where relaxation takes priority over dining or conversation.

Key Features of the HiTeak Lance Sunlounger

1. Premium Costa Rican and Nicaraguan Teak Construction -- HiTeak sources sustainably harvested teak with naturally high oil content that resists rot, insects, and weathering without chemical treatments. This grade-A teak develops a beautiful silver-grey patina if left untreated or maintains its golden honey color with seasonal oiling.
2. Five-Position Adjustable Back -- The reclining mechanism offers five distinct positions from upright reading to completely flat sunbathing, secured with marine-grade stainless steel hardware that won't rust or corrode in saltwater environments. Each position locks securely for safety during use.
3. Integrated Wheels for Easy Mobility -- Built-in wheels at the foot end allow one person to easily reposition the 80-inch lounger to follow shade patterns or group multiple loungers together. The wheels are designed to roll smoothly on pool decking, concrete, and wooden surfaces without scratching.
4. Slide-Out Drink Tray -- A convenient storage shelf slides out from the side to hold beverages, books, or personal items within arm's reach. The tray is sized to accommodate standard drink glasses and features raised edges to prevent items from sliding off in breezy conditions.
5. Open Slat Design -- The slatted construction allows water to drain quickly through the lounger rather than pooling on solid surfaces, making it ideal for poolside use where splashing and wet swimwear are common. The spacing also promotes air circulation for faster drying.
6. Made-to-Order Sunbrella Cushioning -- Each Lance Sunlounger ships with a custom-fitted Sunbrella cushion in your choice of Canvas, Charcoal, or Navy. Sunbrella fabric is solution-dyed for superior fade resistance and water repellency, making it the preferred choice for high-end outdoor furniture.
7. Commercial-Grade Weight Capacity -- The reinforced teak frame supports up to 250 pounds, making it suitable for both residential and commercial applications. The marine-grade hardware and mortise-and-tenon joinery ensure the lounger maintains stability even with daily heavy use in resort or hotel settings.
8. Sustainable Manufacturing Practices -- HiTeak's commitment to responsibly harvested wood means each Lance Sunlounger supports sustainable forestry practices in Central America while delivering furniture that can last decades with minimal maintenance.

Sunlounger Space Planning and Placement

The Lance Sunlounger measures 30 inches wide by 80 inches long, requiring a minimum footprint of 36 by 86 inches to accommodate the extended length plus clearance. Allow at least 30 inches between multiple loungers for comfortable movement and towel placement. For poolside installations, position loungers at least 4 feet from the pool edge to comply with safety codes and allow space for pool equipment access.

When planning your outdoor space, consider that the Lance's wheels make it easy to reposition throughout the day to follow shade patterns or create conversation groupings. The slide-out drink tray extends approximately 12 inches from the side, so account for this when placing loungers near walls or planters. For covered patios, ensure ceiling height accommodates the full upright position of 38.75 inches.

The Lance works beautifully as a single accent piece on a screened porch or rooftop terrace, in pairs flanking a fire table, or in groups of four to six around resort pool decks. The natural teak finish coordinates with both contemporary and traditional outdoor design schemes.

Styling Your Teak Lounger Area

The Lance Sunlounger's warm teak tones pair beautifully with neutral and earth-tone accessories. Position it on a large outdoor rug in natural jute or geometric patterns to define the relaxation zone. Add coordinating outdoor pillows in complementary colors to the Sunbrella cushion -- navy cushions look stunning with coral or white accent pillows.

For poolside styling, pair the Lance with teak or aluminum side tables to create a complete lounge set. Consider adding large outdoor planters with tropical plants like bird of paradise or palm varieties to create privacy screens between lounger groupings. Outdoor wall art on adjacent walls or pergola structures adds personality to covered patio installations.

For a resort-style look, arrange multiple Lance Sunloungers in pairs with a small fire table or coffee table between each pair. This creates intimate conversation areas that can be reconfigured for different group sizes. The natural weathering of teak means the lounger will develop character over time, requiring minimal maintenance beyond occasional cleaning.

Ideal for homeowners with established pools or patios who want premium outdoor furniture that combines comfort with convenience features. Interior designers specifying high-end outdoor pieces for luxury residential projects will appreciate the Lance's made-to-order cushions and premium teak construction that justifies its price point. Well-suited for boutique hotels and resort properties requiring sunloungers that photograph beautifully and withstand daily guest use -- the wheels and weight capacity make it practical for hospitality environments where staff frequently rearrange seating.

Common Questions About Teak Sunloungers

Do the wheels lock in place or will the lounger roll around?

The wheels are designed for repositioning, not as casters -- they only roll when you lift and push the lounger. The weight of the teak frame keeps it stable during use, and the wheels won't cause unwanted movement once positioned.

What happens to the teak color over time if I don't oil it?

Premium teak naturally weathers to an attractive silver-grey patina when left untreated, which many people prefer for its low-maintenance appeal. If you want to maintain the golden honey color, apply teak oil 2-3 times per year.

Are the Sunbrella cushions removable for washing?

Yes, the cushions feature removable covers that can be machine washed in cold water. The cushion cores should be stored indoors during winter months in climates with freezing temperatures.

Can this lounger stay outside year-round in coastal areas?

Absolutely -- the marine-grade stainless steel hardware is specifically designed for saltwater environments, and teak is naturally resistant to coastal conditions. The combination makes it ideal for beachfront properties.

How much assembly is required?

The Lance requires light assembly -- primarily attaching the legs and installing the reclining mechanism hardware. Most customers complete assembly in 30-45 minutes with basic tools. Detailed instructions are included.

Is there a trade discount for designers?

Yes, LOOMLAN's trade program offers up to 40% off retail pricing with no minimum order requirement. Approval typically takes 1-2 business days. Apply at LOOMLAN's trade program.

How does this compare to aluminum or resin sunloungers?

Teak offers superior comfort, natural beauty, and longevity compared to aluminum or resin alternatives. While the initial investment is higher, premium teak sunloungers often last 15-20 years with minimal maintenance versus 3-5 years for most aluminum options.

What's LOOMLAN's return policy if this doesn't fit my space?

LOOMLAN offers a comprehensive return policy for unused items -- you can find full details at LOOMLAN's return policy. Given the Lance's substantial size, we recommend confirming measurements before ordering.
