deck chair

Foldable outdoor recliner

A deck chair is a portable folding chair, typically with a wooden frame and canvas seat, designed for outdoor leisure.

The name comes from their original use on ocean liner decks, though they're now common on beaches, patios, and in gardens: We set up deck chairs in the backyard.
