Abstract
The disclosure relates to outdoor furniture, particularly chairs and the like, provided with removable weather protection. A unitary chair body is provided, typically of molded plastic, to form integral seat, back, side and armrest portions. The chair body is of a generally weather-tight construction on the bottom, back and sides. Weather protection from the top and front is provided by means of a removable weather cover, which extends generally from the upper edge of the chair back to the front edge of the chair bottom and extends from one armrest to the other to completely cover the main recess of the chair. The weather cover is of a self-supporting construction, and both the chair and the cover are especially designed and especially adapted to accommodate the use of the cover in its closed position and also to provide for convenient storage of the cover when the chair is in use. The cover can take any of several forms, including a flat, rigid snap-on type, a tambour configuration, and a roll top configuration.
