How to choose your throne in the sand?
Choosing the right reclining device is an art. First, answer the question: are you a “lying starfish” type or a “travel light” minimalist?
For maximalists:
– You are looking for a chair that has 7 recline positions, a built-in sunshade, a cooler bag, Bluetooth speakers, and maybe even solar charging for your phone.
For minimalists:
– A microfiber pad that folds into the size of a croissant and weighs less than your favorite magazine.
For the center-oriented:
– Portable aluminum lounger with mesh fabric, drink holder and space for a book. Because compromise isn't always a bad thing.
