The best garden loungers of summer 2023
Today, the garden is conceived as an extension of the indoor space. Tables, chairs, sun loungers and garden loungers should make the outdoors cosy and comfortable to live in.
The home garden, as well as a balcony or terrace, if well furnished, can add value to the home. Today, probably more than in the past, having an outdoor space, whether small or large, but well organised and decorated, makes the home more comfortable to live in and welcoming at the same time. Depending on the specific requirements of taste and space, it is essential that the outdoor space be furnished and customised.
One of the first outdoor furniture items one thinks of for an outdoor space is the garden lounger. This comfortable but not particularly bulky chair guarantees a comfortable seat and, if necessary, allows you to relax and lie down thanks to a backrest that reclines with a very simple movement of the armrests.
Choosing the most suitable deckchair for your garden: how to do it?
You are spoilt for choice on the market. Garden deckchairs differ in colour, material and seating style. From garden deckchairs in wood to those in plastic, from steel deckchairs to those in aluminium and fabric. And then again those with headrests and those without, those with armrests and those without.
So how do you choose the most suitable garden lounger? It is necessary, first of all, to select the model best suited to your needs. This first assessment must be made in relation to the available outdoor space and the furnishing style of the room.
Whatever material you choose, it is clear that you should always aim for quality. Garden loungers, precisely because they are placed outdoors in the home, must in fact be strong, durable and resistant to any type of atmospheric agent, from rain to wind to sunlight, from temperature changes to humidity.
The best polypropylene garden loungers for summer 2023
The most linear, essential models made of innovative materials such as polypropylene fibreglass are the ideal solution for modern, minimalist gardens.

Acquamarina is available in different colours, white, anthracite, coffee and dove grey. Super comfortable, this deckchair is ideal for furnishing outdoor spaces such as gardens and poolside areas.

How to maintain garden deck chairs?
Regardless of the material they are made of – metal, plastic or even wood – garden deck chairs should be protected from the weather during the winter months. Perhaps placed in the garage, stored in the attic in the house or inside the garden shed. In the event that you do not have such an indoor space or a gazebo or a small shed, it is a good idea to cover the sun loungers with a tarpaulin during the cold and rainy months.
Once spring is back, simply wash them with soap and water for the first time and then continue with this type of maintenance more or less once a month so that dirt and dust never accumulate. Just use a classic microfibre cloth and choose a neutral, non-aggressive detergent.
