Sling loungers cut cushion maintenance to zero, but most lock you into one position. The Castelle Berkeley combines handcrafted cast and extruded aluminum with breathable sling fabric that drains instantly after rain or pool splashing. This Castelle Berkeley Sling Chaise Sunlounger is available at Uptown Sebastian with free shipping.

How Is This Chaise Actually Built?

It's handcrafted in the USA from cast and extruded aluminum -- decorative castings for the frame details, structural extrusions for strength. The walnut brown powder-coat finish looks like carved wood but won't corrode in saltwater exposure. Weather-resistant sling fabric stretches across the frame, draining instantly and eliminating the need to store cushions overnight or after storms.

What Can You Adjust on This Lounger?

The backrest moves through five positions, from upright for reading or conversation to completely horizontal for sunbathing or napping. You set the angle with a simple release mechanism, and it locks securely at each stop. The sled base sits low to the ground, so getting in and out is easy at any recline angle.

How Long Does It Take to Build?

This piece is made to order and takes 6-8 weeks to handcraft and ship. Castelle builds every Berkeley chaise in the USA after your order is placed, so it arrives fresh from the workshop rather than sitting in a warehouse. Assembly is minimal -- just attach a few components and you're ready to lounge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where should I place this chaise?

Position it alongside swimming pools on level paving or deck surfaces, or cluster several on a resort terrace. Pair it with pieces from our outdoor chaise lounge collection for a full poolside setup, or add outdoor coffee tables within reach for drinks and reading materials.

Can I leave this lounger outside year-round?

Yes -- the aluminum frame and powder-coat finish are built for coastal and saltwater environments, and the sling fabric is rated for year-round outdoor exposure.

What's the difference between a chaise lounge and a sun lounger?

The terms are interchangeable; both describe extended reclining seats built for full-body lounging without needing a separate ottoman.

Can I return a made-to-order piece?

Returnability follows the option you ordered, not how the piece was built. A size, finish or configuration shown as an option on this page can be returned within 30 days of delivery, subject to a 20% restocking fee -- whatever its build time. A specially requested size, or a piece made in your own material, is custom and is not returnable except on damage. Trade accounts have the restocking fee waived.

Is this commercial grade?

Yes -- the Berkeley qualifies for hospitality, resort, and commercial poolside installations, with reinforced frames and high-durability finishes tested for high-traffic environments.

Does the sling fabric need maintenance?

No cushions to store, no fabric to dry -- just hose it down occasionally to clear pollen or debris, and it drains on its own.
