I live in Las Vegas and I'm curious if the wicker will hold up in the desert sun?

We've had ours since spring and sits directly in the Colorado sun for more than 1/2 day. Have not noticed any fading, cracking, etc. Looks great.

It will get hot no doubt because it's a dark brown/black.. I would stay away from a dark color cushion because they could fade and be hot... I live in New England so I can't say for certain but we left ours out in the sun and never had an issue...

Absolutely should, it is not traditional wicker but rather a plastic polymer or synthetic material.I have no regrets and absolutely love the set.

Absolutely.... I live in Colorado and our weather varies a lot from extreme heat to snow and the wicker holds up very well!

I'm in the the Western NY, so it's hard for me to say. I went for beige because other buyers talked about how the deeper colours faded quickly. After 2 years I'm still happy with my set.

Our furniture is in good shape after one summer on the cape (Massachusetts) but the color of the cushions is really faded-it's not Sunbrella fabric so I would not think it will hold up in dessert conditions.

I live in the extreme heat in Phoenix. I've had the chair under my covered porch that faces North for a year. The chairs are well made, Saturday and don't get direct sunlight. No problems so far.

They are plastic designed to look like wicker, so yes to all weather. The frame is also plastic, no iron, and it's all one piece that easily snaps into place. They look nice and are comfortable, but you'll want a thick towel or pad if you're sitting for long. I really like them.

We feel that you would not want to go smaller. They are not a true rectangular, not straight across. But we do have two of them and the shade in Az. is a welcome site for the summer heat. We have had them for two years and Love them. They have held up very well. As long as they are tight they will not sag. Enjoy the Sun Shade.

We have not had this long enough to answer but would probably last longer by storing it over the winter. We are in the Palm Desert, CA area, and will bring it in over the heat and direct sun when we leave for an extended time. It is supposed to stand up to the weather but it is easy to move and store.

i think it can withstand the heat but not sure about the elements out side.

We leave it out - we live in Southern California. It is only exposed to heat and sun, and it hasn't cracked, and only has faded minimully. Sorry, not sure how it would hold up to real weather.

I live in Mesa, so far I have had no problems, but mine are under our covered porch. I'd say as long as there is no exposure to the sun you should be good. Mine have made it through two summer seasons now. Good Luck.

It is ok. It will hold up a little bit but not forever. The sun and rain will eventually make it rot as it does with everything. We live in southwest Florida and even our patio umbrellas get dry rot.

Yes, if you use the stakes that come with it. I live in the high desert and have no problem as long as I secure it.

I live in a very windy area and my solar shade is holding up well. I left a little slack when I put it over my over the top of my pergola to give a little on the windy days.

I live in North Texas and we have very hot summers. It has held up nicely so far.

We've had monsoons this summer in AZ with very strong dust storms and rain. The sun sail had held up great, it has a little slack in the line that needs tightening but that's from the line used to string it up, not the tarp itself.

We are in Dallas, not too cold, but hot and sunny. After 2 years, the wicker is badly faded and coming apart.

I have had mine out for about a year, in the high mountain sun of Colorado. It gets direct sunlight until mid afternoon, and the color seems to be holding up well. Hope this helps.

Ours sits in the shade all day so heat is not a problem. I would assume that it would get hot in the sun if exposed for any length of time, as would all metal. We also put a seat and back cushion on it, so we may not be the best resource to answer the question. It is a nice unit and seems solid. We're happy.
