Kai Aluminum
Powder-coated aluminum that never rusts, wide 6-inch arms, deep cushions in Sunbrella or Olefin. Graphite Gray or Beige frames.
Graphite Gray
Deep charcoal that disappears against stucco and concrete.
Beige
Beige is a soft off-white, lighter than it sounds.
Why aluminum
Light enough to move. Finished to stay.
Aluminum can’t rust, and the baked powder-coat protects it from chipping, salt air and UV. The Kai sofa frame is about 60 pounds, roughly 100 with its cushions on, so it still slides easily to follow the shade. The arms are a flat six inches wide, room for a drink, and the open-slat back is finished on both sides, so it looks as good from the yard as from the seat.

Two fabrics
Sunbrella or Olefin?
Same frame, same cushions, same inserts. The difference is the fabric and the price.
| Sunbrella | Olefin | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Solution-dyed acrylic. The color goes through the fiber, so it resists fading. Resists mold and mildew. | Solution-dyed polypropylene. Dries fast, holds color well, lighter on the wallet. |
| Best for | Full sun, long-term | Covered patios, a fresh look for less |
| Replacement cushions | Every color we stock, with inserts or covers only | |
Good to know
Before you order.
How does it ship?
By freight carrier to your curb, with a call ahead to schedule. Free on orders of $2,000 or more, $150 flat below that. In San Diego and LA, White-Glove delivery for $250 includes assembly, placement and packaging removal.
Is there assembly?
Light. A few screws, tools and instructions included. Or choose White-Glove and we do it.
Will it rust or get hot?
It can’t rust. The frame and arms warm in direct afternoon sun like any metal; the cushions you sit on don’t hold heat the way metal does.
Can I see it in person?
Yes. The collection is on the floor at our Chula Vista showroom, fabric swatches too. Hours and directions.
Can I pay over time?
Yes. Shop Pay Installments at checkout; the monthly figure is shown on every product page under the price.
