ABSTRACT:
A lounge chair has a seat section of a selected width connected to a seatback section to provide adjustment of the seatback angle. A person may either sit upright in the chair, or lie on the chair in either the prone or supine positions. A chest support section having a width that is less than the width of the seat section is connected to the seat section so that a person sitting in the chair may place his feet on a surface upon which the lounge chair rests. A person lying face down on the chair may comfortably extend his hands and arms under the chair. An end section extending from the chest support section includes a face passage. A person lying face down on the chair may place his face in the passage and view reading material under the chair. The seat section includes front and rear portions that meet an angle between 158.degree. to 183.degree. to provide an elevated portion that provides a bend to the user's knees when he is sitting upright on the chair with his legs extended and which provides a bend to the user's hips relative to his head when he is lying face down on the chair.
