The Expanse and Other New Items in Outback Chair Company's Urban Balance Collection of Resin Rattan Hanging Furniture will be on Display at the Casual Furniture & Accessories Market in Chicago.
San Diego, Calif. (PRWEB) July 3, 2007 -- Since its introduction in September 2006 at last year's Casual Furniture & Accessories Market, the Double Lounger from Outback Chair Company has proven to be a top-selling, high-margin item for retailers who sell the company's hanging chairs and hammocks.
An inspired reinterpretation of the traditional porch swing, the Double Lounger is constructed with a 600x600 denier polyester fabric. Given the success of the Double Lounger, Outback Chair created a resin rattan version, the Expanse, for its new Urban Balance collection. Outback Chair will showcase the Expanse at the upcoming Casual Furniture & Accessories Market at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago, Booth 8-8130, September 17-21, 2007.
"The Double Lounger has sold very well for us since we introduced it last fall. The new Expanse offers similar styling and comfort in a resin rattan that looks great and is very durable. It, too, will be a successful product for us - and for any outdoor furniture retailer that wants to sell exceptional furniture that consumers will not find at a Big Box store," said Samantha Olenick, owner, Swings and Things, San Diego, Calif. "We are already selling the Cove, a hanging chair in Outback Chair's Urban Balance collection, and it has been a huge hit with our customers at $1,000 retail."
The most recent addition to the Urban Balance collection of resin rattan furniture from Outback Chair Company, the Expanse is crafted with top-quality materials, including resin rattan in a dark-chocolate color and epoxy-coated steel cables. It is offered with three fashionable color options for its 1.5-inch thick closed cell foam seat cushions: ocean blue, kiwi green and mandarin orange. Hanging hardware is included. Seating width: 42 inches. Weight capacity: 500 pounds. MSRP: $649.99.
The Expanse joins other new items in Outback Chair's Urban Balance collection: The Curve, a smartly styled hanging chair with a gently contoured seat and back; the Cove, a floating alcove that extends a cordial invitation to cozy up; and the Wave, a boldly luxurious hammock that yields to each person who floats away to tranquility on its flowing form.
