Retailers Enthusiastic about Outback Chair's New Double Lounger

Latest Addition to Outback’s Collection of Remarkably Relaxing Hanging Chairs and Hammocks Debuted at the Casual Furniture & Accessories Market in Chicago, Ill.

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) September 28, 2006 -- Retailers are raving about Outback Chair Company’s new Double Lounger, a modern reinterpretation of the traditional porch swing. Based on the design of the top-selling Outback Lounger, the Double Lounger offers generous room for two. It is perfect for homeowners who want to share the time-honored comfort of relaxing in an old fashioned porch swing -- updated with contemporary styling and advanced ergonomic design. Outback Chair Company, Inc., manufacturer of the most complete line of remarkably relaxing hanging chairs and hammocks, introduced the Double Lounger at the Casual Furniture & Accessories Market in Chicago, September 13 - 16, 2006.

“All of Outback’s hanging chairs are strong sellers for us,” said Kebbie Crout, owner, Hit the Deck Patio Warehouse, Fenwick Island, Del. “We had the chance to sit in the new Double Lounger at the Casual Market, and it is comfortable with plenty of room for two. Our customers have been asking for a two-seater, and we are anxious to get the new Double Lounger into our store and on display.”

According to Carl Dupree, owner of Palmetto Hammock & Resort Shoppe in Charleston, S.C., “the new Double Lounger looks to be a sure winner for retailers of casual and outdoor furniture.”

“The wide, wooden arms of the Outback Loungers make them truly different and exceptionally comfortable,” said Paige Remington, owner, Island Hammocks, Plantation Key, Fla. “The Loungers are among our highest priced, and highest margin, products. So we were looking forward to the introduction of the new double version.”

The Double Lounger’s seat is 45 inches wide, 18 inches wider than the standard Outback Lounger seat. It is constructed with a UV-treated, 600x600 denier polyester fabric that is durable and easy to clean. Color choices include navy blue, green, burgundy, sand and camouflage. Two fabric options are available: smooth or basket weave. The Double Lounger features 1.5-inch thick closed cell foam seat cushions and wide, curved arms fashioned in varnished hardwood. Like all hanging furniture from Outback Chair Company, the Double Lounger is backed by a 10-year warranty. And it even comes complete with two cup holders for those refreshing summertime beverages. MSRP: $399 (smooth fabric), $429 (basket weave fabric).

Outback Chair Company will display the new Double Lounger at the AQUA Show (booth 1062), November 8 - 10, 2006, Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, Nev. and at the International Pool & Spa Expo (booth 977B), November 29 - December 1, 2006, Las Vegas Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nev.
