Wooden bases are strong, reliable and lightweight. For the production of furniture bases, beech, oak, walnut are used. There are cheaper products made from coniferous trees.

Lounge chairs made of metal are the strongest and most durable. Most often they are made from steel or various alloys (typical for design solutions). The disadvantage of metal furniture is its heavy weight, which can make it difficult to transport and move such items. Economy class lounges are made of MDF or chipboard. These are the most fragile and unreliable variations. And also there are combined structures that combine metal and wood, wood or chipboard and other combinations.
