I know Adirondack chairs aren't very exciting, but my wife wants a couple Here's my question: flat back or curved? Looks like the traditional ones have flat/straight backs, whereas more modern ones have a curved back (curved across the shoulders/width, not from top to bottom).

Are the straight ones comfortable for long evenings spent sipping adult beverages? I like how they look. Or should I go curved back? To be honest, the only ones I've ever sat in were flimsy plastic ones from Walmart or some such.

Thanks,
