Lounge & Chaise BUYING GUIDE
When you are furnishing your home, one item not commonly on a
list is a chaise lounge. Purchasing one, however, may prove it to be
your favorite piece.
Chaise lounges have been around since the 17th century and their popularity is on the
up-swing. Not only are they still a favorite in the bedroom and pouch or patio, they are
appearing in the living room and den in today’s homes. The buying process can be tedious,
but asking yourself a few questions will help in the selection of the perfect chaise.
1. LOCATION
Deciding where you will use it is the governing agent for the style, construction, upholstery
and size you choose.
For example if it is being used inside the home, leather or fabric could be considered. For
outside use, teak, stainless steel, canvas webbing, and weather-resistant material would
be the way to go. It is wise to think about its use in regards to children and pets.

2. UTILIZATION
For reading and relaxing, explore back pillow support, arms and generous upholstery. Also
deciding the size will also depend on its use. A chaise is great place to read to your children,
cuddle with a pet, or that special someone.

3. STYLE
Choosing your design is decided by personal taste. There are traditional, contemporary and
antique designs to tempt you. By picking a print that incorporates the colors in your home,
will make it the focal point in the room. If the desire is to blend with other furnishings,
choosing a neutral or matching color may make more sense.

4. TRY IT BEFORE YOU BUY IT!
Compare this purchase to buying new shoes. A perfect fit, comfort and style are
the things you want in a shoe, with comfort being the most important. The same is
true for a chaise. So, try it out! Relax and lounge to see if it is comfortable.
Take pictures and measurements and at home invasion how it will look ensuring that
it is the perfect fit.
By doing your homework, adding a chaise to your home will merit you many years of making
memories with your family. Is not that the main consideration in furnishing a home?
Happy shopping.
