Double-Take: Pottery Barn vs. Target


It's time for another double-take, where we take one item from Tar-jay and pair it up with a dead-ringer designer piece. As summer approaches and the weather gets nicer, we move our double-take challenge out to the patio, and compare chaise lounge chairs. Now I don't know about you, but one of my favorite things to do on summer weekends is to stretch out on a patio chaise, soak in some rays, and read the Sunday paper cover-to-cover. Both of the lounge chairs shown are made of weather-resistant faux wicker, and include a water-repellant cushion. But one of these lovely chairs will only cost you $299 (shipping included) at Target, and the other will set you back more than 3-times as much at $999 (plus $50 shipping fee) at Pottery Barn. Which chaise is which? The answer appears in the comments section.
