A Design That Has Stood The Test Of Time

Deck chairs have an amazingly simple design.  They are made up of a wooden frame with a piece of canvas or polyester fabric attached on two ends to form the backing and seat of the chair.  That's it!  The fabric portion,Deck Chairs Offer More Than You Realize Articles also called the sling, is usually pretty colorful and is an easy way to add a dash of color to an outdoor space that needs it.  Since there are no cushions and extra accessories, deck chairs are really lightweight so they can be moved and of course taken out and put away with minimal effort.  A huge benefit of their frame is that it was actually made to fold flat so that it could save storage space on boats.  Homeowners get to take advantage of this feature today too and in fact you can keep quite a large number of chairs even in relatively small space. 

Use Them Anywhere You Want

Hands down the most popular place to use deck chairs is around the pool, on the patio, and in the garden.  They are ideal for hanging out in the sun, reading a book, or just enjoying your outdoor space in style.  However since they are so lightweight, can fold up, and are just so comfy, they are also a  fantastic piece of furniture to travel with.  RV owners know this and that is why many always keep a few onboard.  If you love to fish, deck chairs are the most relaxng way to do it, and are easy to carry to your favorite spot.  And of course on the beach deck chairs will have you enjoying the sights, sounds, and sun without having to get all sandy as you would sitting in normal beach furniture.  Plus, they're just way more stylish anyway.

Even More Options Than You Thought

It can be a little confusing but there are two other varieties of chairs which are advertised as deck chairs.  While they look and are different than the traditional variety they do have their place and might just be what you're looking for.  Portable deck chairs can be used for all the outdoor fun that camping chairs can from the woods, to the beach, or at the local sports game.  They actually look very similar to camping chairs but are different in that they can support people who are much heavier in weight, are sturdier, wider, and often have accessories like tables attached for added convenience.  Boat deck chairs are specifically made to be used on boats. They use marine grade vinyl fabric and can handle all the abusive conditions of the sea and weather that goes along with it. Boat deck chairs also happen to be the safest type of portable seats you can use on a boat as they won't move around and their legs can locked in position so they don't fold on their own when the water gets really rough.

As you can see deck chairs are not only very versatile but come in quite a few varieties as well each with their own unique advantages, but all focus on convenience.  From the patio to sea deck chairs give you the comfort you need.
