ABSTRACT:
Packed transportable furniture has a foldable reversible furniture frame which has a container mode and a frame mode. In the container mode the foldable reversible furniture frame is in the form of a box and the outside surfaces of the box are made of corrugated paper, fiberboard or the like. In the frame mode the foldable reversible furniture frame forms the frame of a chair or sofa with the outside surfaces being covered with foam or bonded polyester padding. The packed transportable furniture has honeycomb supports for structural support, padded back and seat platforms, a slip cover and cushions. These are packed inside the foldable reversible furniture frame in the container mode for shipment. Provision is provided for keeping the slip cover tight by either having holes in the bottom of the foldlable reversible furniture frame or hooks placed in eyelets located on the honeycomb supports through which slip cover draw strings are tied. A third method is to sew a "pocket" in the slip cover where the seat and the back are joined. A tongue of the seat platform is then inserted into the "pocket" during assembly holding the fabric in place. A fourth method is to have "velcro" attachment points strategrically placed. The furniture is weighted by an attached weighted bottom or by sandbags placed inside the furniture.
