Frame material

Aluminium. Aluminium alloys combine light weight with strength, durability and corrosion resistance, making them a highly suitable option for outdoor gear including furniture. However such frames cost a little more than steel frames (see below).

Steel. Steel is highly durable, while not as expensive as aluminium described above. On the other hand, this material has a greater weight, so steel furniture is recommended mainly for outdoor trips by car, as well as for "dacha" use — in house areas where the structure does not have to be worn more than a few metres.

Tree. Wood belongs to the classic materials, has an aesthetic appearance, which allows you to create original-looking pieces of furniture; in addition, it is considered by some to be more pleasant to the touch and "greener" than steel or aluminium. On the other hand, at a rather high cost, this material has no practical advantages over metals; moreover, under heavy loads, when the metal bends, the tree, usually, cracks. Therefore, wooden frames have not received much distribution in tourist furniture.

Weight

The total weight of a piece of furniture. This parameter has a dual meaning. On the one hand, a lot of weight creates inconvenience in carrying, and such products are poorly suited for transportation over long distances. On the other hand, more massive structures are more stable, and when using the same materials, usually, they are also more durable than light ones.

Weight, usually, is indicated without taking into account the cover (see above) — this is quite justified, given that the covers are usually made of soft and light materials and their effect on the weight of the furniture itself is almost imperceptible.
