Literature:

"One piece of furniture that made me happy is the Karuselli lounge chair. When I was picking up another item, I happened to see it standing there, sat down in it and immediately fell in love. Since then, I have enjoyed one or two films in the Karuselli... it is also very comfortable to sleep in."
