Saucer Chair


 

Nearly every little girl will love kicking back in one of these little round chairs.  In addition to the shape, girls saucer chairs have great designs on them, so you can be sure to find one that your little one will love.  Also known as moon chairs for girls, they are designed to provide comfort and support for the entire back, neck, and head area.  The smallest saucer chairs have a diameter of 18 inches (they are round), and sit about 10 inches off the floor.  The smallest ones have a weight capacity of 80 pounds.  If you are wondering about how much these chairs will cost, you will probably be happy to hear that are mostly very inexpensive.  The cheapest ones cost less than $20, and even the more expensive models are only a few dollars more than that usually.

As you shop, make sure you take a look at the dimensions and weight limit of the chairs.  Some of them are slightly larger and can handle more weight than the little ones.  While the small ones are great for disney fairies chairkids who are between 2 and 4 years old, older children will probably need one that is a little bigger than this.  If you are looking for a saucer chair for teens, you will probably need to go with an adult sized model. This doesn’t mean that it needs to be boring though!  There are some great ones in bright colors like pink and purple, and others come with the designs of popular TV shows.

Here are the most popular Saucer Chairs for Girls:

Dora Saucer Chair:  It isn’t surprising to see Dora is #1 on this list, considering how popular her show is.  There are actually three different designs of Dora saucer chairs, and each one is a little bit different.  Some are a couple of inches larger than the others, and keep in mind that a higher price doesn’t necessarily mean the chair is bigger!

Disney Fairies Saucer Chair:  So many girls grow up watching, reading, and listening to these Disney characters, and these chairs are very popular as well.  It features Tinkerbell and two other fairies on the 18 inch chair.

Disney Princess Saucer Chair:  Like the fairies, the princesses are a great choice as well.  There are a couple of different designs, and one of them is a little bit larger (21 inches in diameter) than the other one.  One design has a little crown attached to the top of the chair as well.

Disney Ariel Saucer Chair:  From the ultra-popular movie The Little Mermaid comes this beautiful looking little chair for girls.

 

When it comes to having a place to relax and read a book, watch TV, or even take a nap, saucer chairs are definitely
among the best.  What makes these chairs so comfy?  The reason is because they provide support for your entire back, neck, and head.  Another great thing about saucer chairs is that there are models made specifically for kids, teens, and adults.  One important thing that you need to remember is that it is vital to get a chair that is the right size for whoever is going to use it.  The cool and inexpensive saucer chairs for kids are great for the little ones, but they will break if adults sit in them.  The better quality saucer chairs for adults have lots of padding and are more comfortable than their cheaper counterparts.

One of the best features of the saucer chair is their fold-up versatility:  Most saucer chairs can fold up flat, which means that you can either store them easily in the closet when not in use or pack them in the car to bring with you.  They are great for camping, picnics, and sporting events.  You might have heard a different name for these chairs, as they are also known as moon chairs or sphere chairs.  Despite having different names, they are all the same. Let’s take a look at the different types of saucer chairs that are available.

Saucer Chairs for Adults

While a large percentage of saucer chairs are made for kids, there are definitely some great options available for adults as well.  The adult saucer chairs don’t come with pictures of princesses on them like the kids ones either.  They tend to be solid colors that are meant to look nice in your living adult saucer chairroom or bedroom.  The most common colors are black, red, brown, blue, and green.  There is a lot of variation in terms of quality for these adult chairs.  While you can get inexpensive models for around fifty dollars, these ones aren’t the most comfortable.  Sure, they will work fine, but if you are willing to spend around $100 or so, you can get what is called a Papasan Chair, which is basically the same thing.  What makes the Papasan Chair so good is that it has an extra thick cushion on it that comes right off.  The cushion has a lot more padding in it, which makes it pretty tough to resist falling asleep once you settle in!

If you just want to get an adult saucer chair to take with you on the road, the basic ones are great.  While most people use those collapsible camp chairs, saucer chairs are a lot better for taking a nap in because you can really recline in them.  You can’t do this in a camp chair.  Cabelas makes a camouflage saucer chair with a built in pillow meant for outdoor use.

Saucer Chairs for Teens

A teen saucer chair is pretty much the same as one meant for adults, though there are some differences.  The difference is that most pink saucer chairteens prefer brighter colors than adults do, since they usually aren’t so concerned about matching furniture in their rooms.  For this reason, a red, pink or purple saucer chair would be a good choice for a girl, and a blue or green one would work great in a boys’ room.  Of course, you can always go with black if your kids are into the darker colors.  Since teenagers are masters of slouching and relaxing after a tough day at school, saucer chairs are perfect for just kicking back and watching a movie or playing video games.  The good thing about getting one of these teen saucer chairs is that they are inexpensive enough to use for a few years and replace when they look too tattered.

Kids Saucer Chairs

When it comes to cool designs and comfy chairs, saucer chairs for kids are pretty great indeed.  These little seats are wonderful for children because it gives them a place of their own to relax in.  They are absolutely perfect outdoors at things like baseball or soccer games or picnics, since they give the little ones a place off the ground to take a nap. The manufacturers of these chairs say that they will work for kids who are over 2 years old.  Based on my experience with them, you will need to keep an eye on your kid when they are this young, since the chair can fall over if they stand up in it. Apart from the comfort, for the same low price of a plain mini saucer chair, you can get one that has a design on it that your child will love.  These are mostly based on popular cartoons and kids’ movies.

Pretty much all of these kids chairs can hold weights up to 80 pounds, although some of them can hold 100.  Be sure to check the weight limit when you buy yours if your child is heavier than this.  If this is the case, you will probably have to go with an adult size chair instead, as the kids ones are meant for toddlers.
