  Thinking of how hot slides get in the summer, I’m not really sure I’d want to lie down on this sucker so much as use it to fry up some nice eggs … As a piece of art it’s pretty cool, but the fact that they actually seem to be trying to -sell- them as furniture is a wee bit disturbing!

  It is really beautiful, but I’d slide right off that puppy.
  Great for people with cats, though.

  It depends on what it’s made out of, Stacyj. Some kinds of metal do get really hot, like slides. Some metal will stay cool, though, and not burn your backside. Metals are conductors of heat, so usually if it’s hot outside, it will feel hotter than it actually is. But if its kept indoors, where it’s cool, then it will be cooler than the room temperature. If it’s comfy enough, I would get one.

  I wonder what it would be like if a cat jumped on that. It’d just slip and and eventually get launched into the air by the chair!

  Tip it a bit, pour water on it, and you’ve got yourself one heck of a water slide.
  Put it next to the pool and it gets even better…)

  Thanks, Jeff D.

  It’s chaise longue and it’s pronounced “chezz long”, NOT “chase lounj”

  Ah, the pronunciation of chaise longue?
  I was always told it was like “long cue”, with a hard g instead of c. Don’t know if that’s right, because I’ve heard it “long”, too.

  This one? Yeah, dumb idea. Good for keeping off squirrels. Maybe it’s another squirrel catapult in the making.

  That thing (however it’s pronounced) looks awefully uncomfortable.

  I would be forced to oil that sucker down and leave it in the yard for the kids that broke my hammock playing on it last year. Try playing on this, suckers!
