Renetto Beach Canopy Chair

As its name suggests, the Renetto Beach Canopy caters to ocean-side use, partly because it features an attached sun-blocking canopy. The chair reclines in three positions, as does the canopy. A 16-millimeter powder coated steel frame supports people up to six-foot-five and 250 pounds. Color choices are blue, orange, maroon and hunter green.
