Have you ever sat in your stationary outdoor furniture for a relaxing cup of joe to sip in the peaceful surrounds of your backyard and felt that something was missing? You lean back in your seat, you place your feet on the ground, and lean back , rocking onto the rear legs of your chair. As you steady yourself and adjust your position, a beautiful hawk flies over head. The hawk lets out a loud and sudden call, distracting you from steadying yourself and down you go. You slowly open your eyes and find you are no longer upright, but are on your back staring at the sky between your now extended feet. Whoops! Should have invested in a glider!
Now, before something like this happens again, there are options to consider. One of those options is to nail down your outdoor furniture so that, even if tempted, you will be unable to put yourself in this position again. A more feasible and logical option is to invest in a piece of outdoor furniture that is designed to move and sway safely.
An outdoor glider bench is a perfect example of furniture that will provide sway and comfort. Glider benches have many benefits for the owner. Gliders use an internal swinging mechanism to create movement. They sway similarly to a swing, but to not require a hanging mechanism. This means that the bench does not need to be suspended which allows it to be placed in a variety of spaces. The bench can be placed under a covered porch or out in the yard or patio without a covered space. Glider benches also do not require a frame to be free standing. Frames can be unreliable and unsightly. Glider benches also come with higher weight limits because they stand firmly on the ground rather than being hung.
Another difference between glider benches and other non-stationary outdoor benches is that glider benches are less likely to promote opportunity for injury. It is very difficult to force a glider bench into a position that that it is not designed to be in. This limits the user to sit in the bench and use the bench in the intended way, reducing the likelihood of it tipping over.
Glider benches are also available in a variety of styles and materials. They can typically be found in wood and metal. The most common metal is cast or tubular aluminum construction. This material will not rust and is very sturdy and durable. Glider benches can usually be found in a variety of woods. They can be found in cedar, teak, shorea, acacia, and many others. Wooden glider benches create a rustic ambiance. Metal benches tend to be more decorative and ornate. This type of design lends itself to a Victorian or French Country feel. Most glider benches available will require the purchaser to assemble the bench. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's assembly instructions carefully.
The addition of a glider bench to your outdoor space will provide comfort and movement that so many seek from their furniture. Now we can all enjoy our yards, with our warm cup of coffee, enjoying the sunrise, and gently swaying to and fro without landing flat on our backs with a potential concussion. Decorate your space with comfort and style with a glider bench and discover the solace and peace one can provide your family.
