Egg chairs are made from a mix of materials, including PE rattan/hand-woven wicker, powder-coated steel or other metal/iron frames, plywood and foam internals, and upholstery fabrics such as corduroy or solution-dyed polyester.
Care instructions vary by model: frames can typically be wiped with a damp cloth, wicker or rattan may be rinsed or brushed, and cushions usually require spot cleaning, hand washing, or wiping. Many listings recommend bringing cushions indoors when it rains to extend their life.
Many egg chairs include multiple cushions or pillows. Examples in these listings range from three-piece sets (seat and back plus two small cushions) to packages with four or five throw pillows. Some models also include accessories like an ottoman or hanging hardware.
Assembly varies by model: several listings state “adult assembly required” and include basic tools, while others advertise snap-together or tool-free assembly. Some larger chairs ship in multiple boxes, and arrival times for separate boxes may differ.
Common types include freestanding egg loungers, hanging/swing chairs that come with a stand and hanging hardware, and rocking or papasan-style loungers with anti-tip bases. Some models also include an ottoman.
Listings commonly advertise all-weather or water- and UV-resistant wicker, handwoven UV-resistant PE rattan, powder-coated or rust-resistant steel frames, and weather- or rust-resistant finishes and cushions.
