While it’s true that many lounge chairs are characterized by a lack of armrests and a modest angle of recline (about 45 degrees), this is not universally the case. What is universally true is that whatever form they take, loungers were built for comfort and relaxation.

Broadly speaking, lounge chairs can be divided into the following categories:

  • Traditional loungers
  • Chaise lounges
  • Armchairs
  • Recliners
  • Club chairs
  • Wing chairs
  • Poolside loungers
