You’ve done everything that was on your to-do list today. Now you want to relax a little, drink a coffee and surf the internet on your tablet. To do this, you sit down in your comfortable lounge chair that is next to the couch in the living room. You have plenty of space on this piece of furniture and feel comfortable. You can read about which lounge chairs are available and how you can care for them here:

Particularly comfortable: the typical features of lounge chairs

They are a nice addition to the sofa in the living room, are used as seating in the reading corner or serve as an eye-catcher under the stairs in the hallway: armchairs. What these pieces of furniture have in common is that they are cozy and you can sit comfortably on them. This also applies to lounge or club chairs. Typical of these models is that they have wide seats, deep seat cushions and a low seat height. Overall, they look elegant and high-quality.

Tip: To enhance the lounge atmosphere, you can, for example, place two armchairs opposite each other.

A lounge chair looks particularly good when you match it to your living style. Read here which models suit which furnishings.

Vintage style

The vintage living style is very personal and often consists of individual favorite pieces of furniture. Overall, the furnishings appear romantic, cozy and nostalgic. A nice addition is a lounge chair with a high backrest, a brown leather cover and a metal frame. This goes well with a wooden side table on which a glass vase with forest and meadow flowers stands.

Modern style

Clear shapes and colors, few decorations and functional furniture – that’s what makes up the modern living style. A square club chair fits in well here. With a black leather cover and stainless steel feet, the piece of furniture looks particularly elegant. You can create a nice contrast with white or red cushions.

Scandinavian style

Subtle designs and clear geometric shapes dominate the Scandinavian living style. Simple wooden furniture and light colors such as white, cream or light gray fit in particularly well. The cover of your folding lounge chair, for example, could also be in this color, which is characterized by its puristic design and straight wooden frame .

Fabric, leather and imitation leather: suitable covers for your armchair

If you want to buy a lounge chair, you can choose between different upholstery fabrics. You can read about the advantages of fabric, leather and imitation leather here.

Fabric covers

Whether bright colors, pastel shades or wild patterns – the choice of colors and patterns for fabric covers is large. Synthetic materials such as polyester are hard-wearing, robust and resilient. Cotton is stable, tear-resistant and breathable. Armchairs with velvet covers feel pleasantly soft and shimmer elegantly.

Leather covers

Lounge chairs with leather covers look classy and high-quality. The natural material is robust, hard-wearing and durable. It also adapts comfortably to the temperature of the skin.

Synthetic leather covers

In terms of workmanship and design, artificial leather covers are visually almost indistinguishable from real leather covers. They look just as classy and elegant. However, armchairs made of artificial leather are generally cheaper than models made of real leather.

Extra features: These are the features your lounge chair can have

Armchairs with a four-legged frame are classic seating furniture. Alternatively, there are also models that have additional functions. Here you can get an overview.

• Swivel base: If your club chair has a swivel base, a plate or a cross, you can turn 360° while sitting. This gives you a panoramic view and allows you to change your position flexibly – whether to watch TV or to talk to someone else in the room.
• Castors: Castors make armchairs mobile and maneuverable, so you can move them around the room or within a floor easily, flexibly and without help. For example, a TV chair can be pushed away from the couch in front of the window in no time at all if you want to use it as a reading chair there.
• Reclining function: If the backrest and footrest of your lounge chair are manually or electrically adjustable, you have the option of adopting different sitting positions. For example, you can sit up straight to read or lean back and relax to take a little nap in the recliner.
• Footstool: You can put your feet up and relax better on a footstool that matches your club chair. This small piece of furniture can also serve as a practical storage area or additional seating option.

Clean properly: With these tips, your chair will stay beautiful for a long time

If you sit in your lounge chair every day, it will be subjected to a lot of wear and tear over time. Body fat, sweat and clothing leave their mark. That’s why you should take care of the piece of furniture every now and then.

• Fabric: You should vacuum fabric covers regularly with a special upholstery nozzle. Light stains can be easily removed with soft, damp cloths. Baking soda is suitable for stubborn stains. You can either apply it dry, leave it to work for a few hours and then vacuum it, or you can use a damp sponge and work the baking soda powder into it.
• Leather: Dust leather lounge chairs once a week with a dry cloth or vacuum them with a soft brush. You can remove dirt with a special leather cleaner. If you regularly treat the piece of furniture with leather care, you will prevent dirt and signs of wear and tear and the material will remain shiny and supple.
• Artificial leather: You should also vacuum artificial leather covers regularly and wipe them with a damp, soft cloth to remove dust and deposits. Dirt can be easily removed with a damp, soft sponge and a little washing-up liquid.

Conclusion: Lounge chairs stand for comfortable elegance

You can sit particularly comfortably in a lounge chair. The furniture usually has a wide seat and a low seat height. Here is a summary of the important information:

• Club chairs with a high backrest, brown leather upholstery and a metal frame go well with the vintage style . Square models with stainless steel feet and black leather upholstery underline the linear, modern style of living. A folding lounge chair with a gray fabric upholstery goes well with a Scandinavian interior with simple wooden furniture .
• In a lounge chair with a swivel base, you have a panoramic view. Castors make your piece of furniture mobile, so that it can be positioned flexibly in the room. If the backrest and footrest are adjustable, you can vary your sitting position.
• Fabric covers made of synthetic fibers such as polyester are very durable, while fabrics made of natural fibers such as cotton are characterized by good moisture regulation. Leather is a very durable and breathable material, and armchairs with synthetic leather covers are easy to care for and less expensive than real leather.
