The LC4 chaiselongue is the most famous of the furniture designs by le Corbusier and the only one on which he worked personally. He called it "resting machine". It is most remarkable that the rest position can be adjusted without any mechanism, simply gravity will keep it in place.

The elaborate construction which fit the horizontal supports. It is way more durable and shows no ugly allen screw. |

| Detail view of a cheap copy. The tubes of the baseframe are thinner and the horizontal support is fitted with a single allen bolt. | This picture shows the somewhat dull appearance of the stainless steel frame which is typical for cheap replicas from China. Also note the thin straps which support the mattress. |
