A hanging chair transforms any corner into a personal oasis of calm. Whether in the garden, on the balcony, or in the living room – this floating seat offers a special place for relaxation. However, the sheer variety of models, materials, and mounting options can be overwhelming.
This guide is designed to help you navigate the options. It introduces different types of hanging chairs and highlights objective criteria to help you make an informed decision for your home.
Three key aspects will determine which model is right for your needs: the mounting type, the material, and the intended location.
The choice of suspension is a fundamental decision. A hanging chair with a stand offers maximum flexibility. It can be set up anywhere without structural modifications and easily moved when needed – from the living room in winter to the patio in summer. This is particularly advantageous in rental properties where drilling into the ceiling is often not permitted.
A classic ceiling mount, on the other hand, is a space-saving solution. It requires a load-bearing ceiling (usually concrete) and professional installation with heavy-duty anchors. It is crucial to verify the ceiling's load-bearing capacity before installation.
The material affects not only the look but also the durability and maintenance requirements.
For a hanging chair in the garden, weather-resistant materials like polyrattan and powder-coated steel are essential. Pay attention to UV resistance ratings to ensure a long lifespan. On a balcony, a model with a stand may be the more practical solution. For indoor use, design and comfort take centre stage. Here, a so-called egg chair often blends harmoniously into modern or unconventional interior designs.
Here is a selection of different hanging chair models that cater to various needs and applications.

How much weight can a hanging chair hold? The maximum load capacity varies greatly depending on the model, construction, and material, typically ranging from 90 kg to 150 kg. Children's hanging chairs are often designed for lower weights, like the SoBuy model at 50 kg. It is essential to adhere to the manufacturer's specified maximum load capacity (e.g., 130 kg for the Beliani SESIA) and not exceed it.
Can you hang a hanging chair on a balcony? Yes, a balcony is a suitable location. A hanging chair with a stand is often the easiest and safest solution, as it requires no structural alterations. For a ceiling mount, the load-bearing capacity of the balcony ceiling must be verified. In rental properties, the landlord's permission is required for this.
Is polyrattan weather-resistant?Polyrattan is designed for outdoor use and exhibits high resistance to moisture and UV radiation. However, to maximise the furniture's lifespan, manufacturers recommend covering it with a protective cover when not in use or storing it in a cool, dry place during the winter months. This provides additional protection for the material and preserves its appearance over the long term.
