A level project consumer help

[MikeIOM]

Im studying A level product design at school and I'm designing a sun lounger/relaxing chair. Im just wondering what people look for when buying one e.g. height colour and size.
Any input would be great as this is vital consumer research for my folder work.

thanks

How easy it it to either keep clean or cover over. These things are kept outdoors.

Portability? you may want to move it out of the way of the barbie for instance...?

I would say a folding one etc for storage would be high on the agenda.

One that's possible to get out of without doing myself an injury. Not everyone has the abdominals of a 21-year-old.

You should find another website because there is always a gender issue with choice.

Go to a shop that sells them and ask them.

Do a survey at your local shopping centre.

You need to get a bit more creative with your thinking I think.

One that automatically tips German's towels into the pool would be a hit abroad.

I'd look for good packaging ... as it will hardly come out of the shed in this country!

It will need a drink holder, fabric that does not let you lie in a pool of sweat ..... and for public use, be able to angled for good view of passing totty with minimal head movement
