Purchased this cushion recently, and it was delivered quickly and in good shape. Its picture on your website was a good representation of the pad I received. I chose the Sunbrella fabric covered pad and it seems very water repellent. Water doesn't seem to absorb into the cushion. ---- Rain just beads on top of the cushion and then rolls off. The pad is thicker than most retail chaise lounge pads, which makes it exceptionally comfortable to sit on.
