How to Choose a Lounge Chair?

Selected direction

1. Style

It should fit in with the existing decor and be consistent with the rest of the furniture to avoid overpowering the lounge area.

2. Color Tone

Similarly, color tones, like style, need to be harmonious and not overpowering. If you're adding a lounge chair to a separate lounge area, you have more freedom in choosing a color tone, guided by your personal preferences and aesthetics.

3. Depth

To ensure comfort, the depth of the lounge chair should be a top consideration. Before purchasing, sit in it to determine if it will meet your daily needs.

4. Armrest Height

Everyone has different preferences. If you prefer to rest your arms, you might want to choose a lounge chair with low or no armrests. However, if you prefer to huddle in the middle of the lounge chair, a chair with high armrests and a deep seat is undoubtedly the best choice.

5. Back Height

Those who prefer to sit upright can choose a stool without armrests or a backrest. Alternatively, you can opt for a chair with low armrests and a low backrest, which places the occupant's center of gravity at the waist. However, the primary reason we buy a lounge chair is to enhance our comfort while resting, so we often prefer one with a higher backrest that allows for leaning. However, whether the backrest reaches the shoulders, the neck, or even above the head depends on personal preference.

6. Softness

For a lounge chair without a seat or back cushion, consider the hardness of the material itself. For additional cushions, pay attention to the internal padding and test the feel after sitting on it.

7. Stability

For quality, check the stability of all parts of the chair, especially for chairs with legs as the primary support. Pay particular attention to structural issues, such as check for fastenings, screws, and other joints.

8. Rake

Most lounge chairs have backrests that tilt slightly back, allowing the user to sit comfortably. Chairs with a higher recline feel like lying down, making them particularly comfortable.
