The Ciokea is the one we reach for when the lounge has to live outside and move with the sun. Its aluminum frame, Textilene seat, and five-position backrest make it a low-maintenance poolside chair, and the 72-inch length gives a full-grown adult room to stretch out. We were also pleased to find that it arrives fully assembled and folds flat for storage. It is built for one person, with a long frame that supports the legs fully.
The low 12.2-inch seat height is easy to step into, and the Textilene keeps air moving on hot afternoons, so you can sit down without a towel. We prefer this sort of outdoor lounger to a cushioned one when the chair stays by a pool: rain drains through, the frame wipes clean, and there is no cushion to haul inside. The five backrest positions cover upright reading and flat sunbathing, and the fold is compact enough to tuck into a garage corner.
The Ciokea does not try to be an indoor reading chair. It is thin, open, and built for sun, which is exactly why it earns the outdoor recommendation. If you want a padded chaise for a covered porch, look at the SERWALL or an upholstered indoor model instead.
Bottom line: For a poolside or balcony lounger that folds away, the Ciokea is our clear outdoor pick; buy it if you want low-maintenance support, not a cushioned indoor seat.
