Have A Seat In The Directors Chair
Whenever I saw a directors chair as a kid, I wondered why we didn’t have one at home. They looked so cool, so comfortable, so lightweight and so easy to move… hadn’t Mom and Dad clued into this yet? Nowadays, directors chairs are all the rage in home and outdoor furniture. Like I said: cool, comfortable, lightweight, fold away unobtrusively… where couldn’t you use such a chair?
A director’s chair works perfectly for seating that needs to be put away or moved often. Small chairs are great for camping, golfing, outdoor events, watching the kids on the front lawn… The larger framed chairs can be a very tasteful choice for small garden and backyard areas. Even a trendy bachelors pad can sport some great-looking directors chairs.
The standard directors chair has a seat height of 16 to 18 inches. A quality standard chair may cost $50 to $70. Counter and bar height director chairs may have a seat height of anywhere from 23 to 31 inches, and cost upwards of $80 or $90. Kids director chairs range from $30 to $60. Manufacturers build chairs specifically for outdoor use, either super light and portable, or proper deck and patio director chairs.
A folding directors chair is raved for its portability. Often, manufacturers sell their chairs on this point. How much does the chair weigh, how small will it fold? There are director chairs that even fold into messenger bags, superb for travel and easy transportability. Be sure to consider, however, the strength and durability of a very small or light directors chair. How much weight will it hold? How sturdy is the frame? The aluminum director chair is known for its sturdiness and lightness of weight.
Another fabulous aspect of this furniture piece is that you can easily buy director chair replacement covers. The seats and backs are easily removed and exchanged–for a new color, a new fabric, an entirely new look. Whether you’re merely laundering one set of covers, or want to do some quick and easy redecorating, directors chair covers make life so simple that it’s almost laughable. Covers commonly come in canvas, polyester, mesh, or special padded director chair covers. You can buy sets of different colors, or even patterns, for a new look any time.
Basically, you can’t go wrong in style, form, or function with the directors chair. Reasonably inexpensive and unbelievably versatile… what are we waiting for?
