What are chair couches called?
1 Answer
Chair couches are usually called chaise longues. The term comes from the French phrase "chaise longue," which literally translates to long chair. Although its length resembles a sofa intended to seat two or more people, a chaise longue has a strategically positioned backrest to allow a single user to recline.
