Abstract

An improved reclining lounge chair is provided having a distended tubular frame surrounding a fabric base. The fabric base comprises a seat portion, a leg rest portion, and an upper back rest portion. The distended frame is detachably mounted within a fulcrum base member that permits pivoting adjustment of the frame between an upstanding or reclining position. In a presently preferred embodiment, the fulcrum base member further comprises two arm supports and a first arcuate stop bar that cooperates with a second arcuate stop bar disposed on the back rest portion of the tubular frame to limit the motion of the frame in a reclining position.
