Buyer’s Guide to Adirondack Chairs: Elevate Your Outdoor Comfort with The Porch

Transforming your outdoor space into a cozy, inviting retreat starts with the perfect seating. Adirondack chairs are a classic choice, offering both style and comfort. At The Porch, we offer two distinct Adirondack chair styles: the Classic Hardwood Adirondack and the Poly Classic Adirondack. Each has its unique charm and benefits, tailored to meet different needs and preferences. Here’s a detailed guide to help you choose the perfect Adirondack chair for your outdoor haven.

The Classic Hardwood Adirondack Chair

Features:

  • Made from solid Dungun, an Indonesian hardwood

  • 7 slats across the back

  • Wide armrests

  • Curved back and rolled front for added comfort

Why You’ll Love It: The Classic Hardwood Adirondack chair exudes timeless elegance with its natural wooden beauty. The rich, oiled finish not only enhances the wood's natural grain but also provides a layer of protection against the elements. However, to maintain its lustrous appearance, regular oiling is recommended, especially if the chair is exposed to the harsh Australian sun and weather. Over time, the timber may grey off if not maintained, adding a rustic charm if that's your preference.

  • Width: 78cm

  • Depth: 88cm

  • 6 back slats

  • Rear upright supports for added strength and rigidity

Why You’ll Love It: The Poly Classic Adirondack chair represents the next generation of outdoor seating. This chair is designed to replace higher-maintenance timber chairs and offers exceptional durability and low maintenance. Wash it down or use a high-pressure cleaner to keep it looking fresh. The material is resistant to UV rays and mould, ensuring it stays vibrant and clean with minimal effort.

Choosing the Right Adirondack Chair

When deciding between the Classic Hardwood and the Poly Classic, consider the following:

  1. Maintenance: The Poly Classic Adirondack chair is your best bet if you prefer a low-maintenance option. Its durable, easy-to-clean material ensures you spend more time relaxing and less on upkeep.

  2. Aesthetic: For those who love wood’s natural look and feel, the Classic Hardwood Adirondack chair offers a timeless appeal. Just be prepared for regular oiling to maintain its beauty.
