Explore Our Stylish Garden Deck Chairs
A good deck chair gives you the perfect place to relax outside on sunny days — whether you're after a comfortable seat for the back garden, a small balcony, or something portable for a day trip.
Garden deck chairs might look simple, but a few practical details separate a chair you'll use all summer from one that ends up in the garage after a week. Weight and portability come first if you plan to move your chair around; a light frame and a built-in carry handle make a real difference. It's also worth thinking about storage space. Most deck chairs fold flat, but check the folded dimensions on the product page if you're fitting them into a narrow shed or under-stairs cupboard.
Heavier non-foldable metal frames have a more permanent, expensive feel, and tend to be more stable on uneven ground. They also typically come with comfy cushions for a touch of luxury. Choose from colours such as soft neutrals and greys.

Caring for Your Deck Chair
Caring for a garden deck chair is simple. Fabric sling seats can pick up dust, pollen, and the odd splash of sun cream, but many garden deck chairs now use durable textilene fabric that’s easy to clean. Some models also feature powder-coated metal frames, which tend to dry faster and resist rust better than untreated alternatives.
A wipe-down with warm soapy water and a soft cloth is enough to handle most surface marks. For deeper cleans, remove the fabric from the frame (if the design allows it) and let it dry fully before folding the chair away.
For deck chairs with metal frames, check hinges and joints regularly for rust spots and treat them early with a light coat of metal-safe protectant. Wooden frames may benefit from an occasional re-oil to keep the finish weather-resistant.
Once autumn arrives, store your deck chairs somewhere dry. If you plan on covering them, a breathable cover is better than a sealed bag, as it lets moisture escape rather than trapping it against the fabric.
Deck Chair FAQs
Can I Leave My Deck Chair Outside All Year?
Most garden deck chairs cope well with occasional rain but leaving them out through winter shortens the life of both the fabric and the frame. Folding them away into a shed, garage, or dry storage area between seasons is the best way to keep them looking and feeling new. Check the product listing for any specific weather-resistance notes.
How Much Weight Can a Deck Chair Hold?
Weight capacity varies by design but is usually around 120kg. Where a maximum user weight applies, you'll find it listed on the individual product page under the specifications section. If you can't see a figure, get in touch with our customer service team and we'll confirm it for you.
Do Your Deck Chairs Need Assembly?
Most deck chairs in our range arrive ready to use — just unfold and sit. If any minor assembly is needed, a step-by-step guide with drawings is included in the box.
How Do I Clean the Fabric Seat on a Deck Chair?
Warm water, a mild soap, and a soft cloth will handle most surface marks. Avoid bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can weaken the fabric over time. Let the seat dry completely in the open air before folding the chair away for storage.
Are Your Deck Chairs Portable Enough for Camping or Days Out?
Many of the deck chairs we stock fold flat and are light, making them easy to carry to the beach, a campsite, or a park. Check the folded dimensions on the product page to make sure it fits in your car.
What's the Difference Between a Deck Chair and a Sun Lounger?
A deck chair is typically an upright, foldable seat designed for sitting rather than lying flat. Sun Loungers recline further and are longer, built for stretching out. If you're looking for something compact that stores easily and moves around the garden, a deck chair is usually the better fit.
