Sitting under the Canopy and Awning, is very relaxing but we only have some cheap ones and would like to upgrade

We would like something more comfortable, so we can enjoy the day/night with a drink, without having to stand up due to the chair hurting our bums / back.

Can you recommend some good quality, light(ish) seats which you absolutely love, and are very comfy for sitting on.

Looking on Google there seems to be a wash of seats, so not sure which manufacture is a well known brand.

Thanks :)

We have had Lafuma gravity recliners and they are extremely comfortable and as time ages them spares are readily available. They were in use again this last weekend at a famiky bbq and daughter always makes a bee line for one.

Our kids bee line for our seats also, which is why they are getting our hand me downs.

And we are buying better quality chairs :)

Another Lafuma fan.
Most importantly spare parts are available and sold at sensible prices.
We have 4 chairs, only two now in regular use. All 4 are many years old and in that time I've replaced two plastic bits which broke when "shuffling" the chairs forward towards a table. Arguably our fault but Lafuma are strong on mend and "save the planet".
Fabric, metal frame, springs are as new.

Ours are very much like Lafuma, comfortable enough to sit at a table but recline as required.
Also a pair of directors chairs with the side tables. Both lots over 15 years old.

Which Chairs do you have Hutch?
I am trying to find the name of them. All Mrs H says it was from a place near Bournemouth. Still searching.
This is the best photo I can find , it has a leg support that fits it as well

A wee tip for added comfort, go to Screwfix, get a length of pipe insulation 98p, and wrap it round foot rest. When seat is reclined your ankles dont dig into the foot rest bar, nice and comfy! SIMPLES!

Never found that to be a problem with our Lafuma zero gravity recliners as the fabric supports your calves.

They wouldn’t pass the “springer test” and don’t look comfortable enough to have a kip on them 😂. The other pooch was on the other Lafuma.
