Not sure where to post this but I consider them "pool equipment".
I'm looking for a couple of those floating lounge chairs, not the blow up kind but the harder ones ( usually blue ). I've looked at a couple pool stores and obviously those are made of Uranium or some other kind of precious material becasue they sure are proud of them $$$$$$$$ :eek:
Any one have advice on where to buy and what to get ? experience ?
I wouldn't have thought they were THAT hard to find. Try the on-line stores, like LeisureLiving.com and Specialty Pool Products, and even Red's Pools. There's also the flexible foam ones that don't inflate but are soft and have cup-holders.
There ain't nuthin' better'n sittin' in a floating lounge with a cool drink!
Not sure what type/style of lounge chairs are you talking about? If you have pictures or links to them, it would be easier for us to find a place that may sell them for less.
What is your price range. "$$$$$$$$" means different amounts to different people. Your probably talking about "ensolite foam" chairs, some models do get up there in price. Try eBay...
Two of these are ~$50 or less and the other two are closer to ~$100.

I hear you on the prices. We bought this at Wal-mart:

It cost $30.00, they are marking them down now. I've got several of the other types that this company makes, but the lounge is my favorite. My only complaint is that it is a little short. The back rest is more like a pillow, but it works get as such.
I have the second one from the top in socal_biker's post. The sling ripped on the second use and the floats leak like sieves. Junk.
