A face hole and arm openings let this chair be used lying face down, which is the position no ordinary lounger allows - it means reading or scrolling while tanning the back rather than only the front. Three modes cover sitting, reclining and lying flat, the flat position measuring 26 x 59 x 22 in. Folded it drops to 7 in thick at 26 x 37 in. Oxford cloth over a metal frame carries 330 lbs at 12 lbs of weight. A user manual is included and no assembly is needed beyond unfolding.
