For example, they are always interested in frame material... A wooden base is lighter, however, metal structures are considered the best. A product with a metal frame can withstand any client's weight. You need to take those options that can withstand up to 200 kg of load.

Moreover, it is necessary to be interested in the weight of the lounger itself, if you plan to use it at home with clients. Ideally, it should be 12-13 kg. The electric couch weighs much more.

Important type of coverage: it should be tactilely pleasant, but not fabric. Textile covering is unacceptable, because the couch is treated with antiseptics.

Electric options are considered more powerful and comfortable. At the time of choice, it is important to take into account both financial capabilities and the needs of customers. For a small salon, massive overall structures are not needed. For the arrangement of the rented premises, it is more advisable to purchase folding portable sun loungers.

The couch should be suitable for clients with different body types. You should not take the option with a narrowing in the headboard area. Such a couch is inconvenient for the master and the client. If possible, you should take the product on which you can pick up a cover or put a mattress. If you buy a simple model, it is worth completing it with a cape.

In general, the model must be stable, the fasteners must be securely screwed in, any backlash must be excluded.

Concerning design, then when choosing one or another option, it is necessary to take into account not only aesthetic data, but also the comfort of the user.

If the purchased couch does not meet all the comfort requirements, it is necessary take care of extra pillows... One of them (orthopedic with a notch for the head) can be placed under the head. The other is used under the lower back. A roller-shaped pillow is suitable for this.
