Chaise lounge
Price at the time article was written: $119.99
This chaise lounge will give you 5 different position to adjust the angle of the back. It does not lay flat very well as there will be a gap between the back and seat portion, if you have a sturdy cushion you could use for a bed.

Assembly will require the arms to be attached to the seat on each side. Then the back is attached to the seat with a screw on each side, this will be the swivel point for the back adjustments. An arm on each side of the back will support the back though all five adjustments.
Three seat swing with awning
Price at the time article was written: $132.79
Having a three seat swing in your outdoor area can give you a place to relax with the grand kids for a lazy summer afternoon. The swing will require a large flat spot to sit and swing with stability. Adding cushions will make your swing add color and comfort to your outdoor space. The back will have matching leaf and scroll design to match the dining chairs.
The seat portion will be 59 inches wide, 18 inches deep. It will support 750 total pounds of butts. The total size is 77.5 inches wide and 67 inches tall.
The canopy is a polyester fabric that is UV and weather rated. Will provide shade during those sunny days and will adjust for the moving sun. If you want you can remove canopy and use the swing without it.
Quite a bit of assembly will be required for this swing. Having a buddy to help will make your progress go a little faster. Each side set of legs will come in three parts that have to be assembled before attaching to the top bar. Sides of the swing seat will attach the back and seat together. Two bars will connect the swing to the spring that attaches to the top bar.
The canopy has four major parts, the front, back bar and the left and right bar. Once put together the canopy will attach for sun control. An adjuster in each side will keep the canopy at the angle you prefer. Canopy can be removed if you wish.
Two seat swing with awning
Price at time article was written: $104.98
A smaller version of the three seat swing, if you have a smaller area or just only need seats for two butts, this swing will work for you.
This swing will take a little less space as it is 46 inches deep, 58 inches wide and 65 inches tall. Otherwise assembly is the same process.
The seat will support 500 total pounds. I like the fact that the two seat version will let you and your partner sit and relax in comfort without having the little ones in between.
For long term sitting, I would recommend some bench cushions, I have some examples in an article here.

My take of wrought iron furniture
My take of wrought iron furniture
I have several sets of black wrought iron patio furniture 3 piece bistro set, a 42 inch round dining table with two spring rockers, a glider and several side tables. I am very satisfied with the durability and usability of this type of outdoor furniture. Most of my pieces are at least 10 years old and stay outside year round with little care.
I have had a three piece bistro set for about 15 years. Currently it is on the deck at 
my camper at the lake. It has spent most of its 15 years outside and has no rust or bad spots that have needed repairs.
To make the most of my furniture, I have purchased cushions for each sitting piece. This allows me to use for sitting for longer periods of time before my butt gets the metal grate pattern in it.
