Product Description
The Strathwood Basic Elements Chaise Lounge is ideal for lounging around the pool, back deck or back yard. The back features a 5 position adjustment for upright seating, very relaxed seating or completely flat seating. A very handy tray slides to either side or can rest below the chaise when not in use. For more comfort add a chaise lounge cushion. This sturdy chaise lounge is easily assembled with an adjustable wrench and the supplied allen wrench. The entire chaise is made of Kapur which is an all-weather wood that is dense and durable. Kapur wood requires no finishing and will not rot when left outdoors where rain and sun will damage other lesser quality woods. Left untreated, Kapur will weather to a soft warm shade of gray similar to the weathering of teak. Sturdy mortise and tenon construction provides the highest quality joinery that will last for many years. Original color can be maintained by applying a seasonal coat of teak oil.

Strathwood Chaise Lounge Review
I found this fairly easy to put together, but the size is rather small, and I missed arm rests. The sliding table is convenient. Unfortunately one of the wooden wheels broke soon, and glue wasn’t strong enough to hold against rolling the lounge around.

Simple to assemble, this wood is very hard with a fine, tight grain. Basic construction is pretty good with downling and good joinery. I’m a little over 200lbs and there’s no creaking or flexing when you lay down on these. We’ll see how it holds up (I’ll have to leave them sitting out all through the New England winter because of space), but I figure even if I get 2 seasons use, it’s less expensive than cheap plastic junk that blows around all over the yard, cracks easily, and is impossible to clean.

I really like the looks and workmanship of the Strathwood Chaise Lounge. I do have a complaint though. The assembly hardware list lists 4 metal washers, 25x35mm. However, those washers were NOT included. You can assemble the chaise without them but the wheel assembly is missing 4 washers, so the wheels rub against the chaise. There are no instructions on how to obtain missing parts.

I think the two chaise lounges I purchased are great! They are well built and easy to put together. I’m not concerned about any possible “bleeding” of the stain, which I have never seen on any product from Strathwood (and I have purchased four other products from them). Every year I apply new oil to the other Strathwood products, and I expect to do the same with the chaises-that is what is required with real wood if you want to have the brown look.

I’m using this lounger on my 12×12 patio and it is great! Just wide and long enough to be comfortable, but not so big that it crowds the space. It takes about 40 minutes to assemble (if you cannot find the wheels, they are stored in the space under the pull-out table – it took me 20 minutes of searching to find them!). We just had rain here and this chair did fine – you could see the water beading up on it rather than soaking into the wood. Also, it will support larger people – my family is up to 300lbs and it has been just fine!
