The sun lounge usually ranks as most people’s favorite. It might be the association with lying on a beach on holiday or simply the comfort they provide. But how do you choose the best materials, design and decorative style?

Structure – fixed or folded?

If space is not a problem, sun loungers with fixed structures have several advantages. First, they are more solid than the models that have several joints to fold. In addition, they are larger and generally more comfortable – fixed sun loungers and daybeds are nowadays designed for maximum comfort, providing many adjustable positions. The main disadvantage is that once put into place, they might take more effort if you decide later on that you want to move them around your home or garden.

Materials – wooden, synthetic rattan or aluminum?

Regarding wooden outdoor furniture, it’s important to choose models made with a variety of material that are capable of resisting the action of the sun and moisture. Teak wood, with certified origin to guarantee it’s sustainability, is the most appropriate option due to its tropical provenance – soft to touch and extremely durable.

Synthetic rattan, capable of imitating in a very realistic way the natural ones but with better performance in terms of strength and ease of cleaning.

If you are looking for a light, durable and weather resistant option, then an aluminum structure is the answer. With finishes that can be both polished and tinted and even painted in different colors, this metal allows you to create very light pieces and therefore easy to move from one place to another. Aluminum also does not present problems of corrosion by the action of water and requires very low-maintenance.
