Good Gear
I bought this chair after throwing away another cheap, disposable, inferior chair. This chair is built to last. Its steel construction holds up to my abuse. It has a solid feel. The best part of this chair are the sturdy arm wrests — I can easily get out of this chair!

Sturdy and comfy!!
This chair is so well made, sturdy and comfortable. It slightly reclines to make it ergonomically comfortable for sitting long periods of time. It has a nice carrying sack with a strap for easy carrying. I love this chair!! It is light weight but solid so that someone heavier will feel secure sittting in it.

Comfortable and good quality
The padded chair was extremely comfortable. My husband and I sat on it then our grandson didn't want to give it back to us. It is super comfortable and the material is sturdy. It is a fairly good size chair. No maintenance needed just a fishing pole and lake to fish. Love this chair.

Amazing for tall People
Finally! The size is excellent for tall people! Padding makes it super comfortable and seat depth is big enough to sit pretzel legged while being able to lean back slightly. This is not your average camping chair that hurts your back or bottom after a few minutes. I’ve used it in my backyard just for relaxing, reading a book, or resting during gardening. It is large and a bit heavy for me personally, but, it does come with a really nice padded strap on the carrying case and I’d definitely recommend bringing it along if you’re going somewhere you’ll be sitting a while. Also has two large cup holders with a little bungee that looks like it would accommodate a large stainless tumbler with a handle. Material is waterproof for easy cleanup of spills. I would 100% buy a second one to keep in the trunk!

Absolutely love it
This is a great chair! It's super comfy and has large cup holders. It holds a lot of weight so when my 8 year old decided to join me the chair didn't sag at all. Its easy to get out of too. The extra carry strap on the chair itself is so handy for when you dont get it back in the bag because let's be honest sometimes when we rush off soccer fields or hurry away from a campsite in the rain we aren't fiddling with those bags! This chair is a great step up from my old one.

No more back pain!
We recieved the 2pack for my husband and I for the long days at the ball field. Tried them out last weekend and we love them. My old one would hurt my back but I used this from 9am- 6 pm and no back pain! The bag seems like it’s going to last and the shoulder strap has a padded area so it’s comfortable
