Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Sturdy, I first saw these at a big box store and sat in it. The back support m,akes a huge difference. The triangular ones that have no back support -- and I think this same company makes that one, too -- is nowhere near as comfortable. So, if you are debating with or without the back support, pay more for the support. Construction is good, does fold up very well, and is quite comfortable. I'm only 169 lbs, 5' 9" though, so if you're a big person, you might want to find one at a store and try it first. It is much quicker and smaller than the "bag chairs", and I could use this for extended time, such as at a ballgame. It's likely heavier, though, than you'd want to bring on a hiking or backpacking trip (estimate 3 lbs) and if you are car camping, you'd likely want a real, solid chair (like a director's style chair). Two small notes: this does not have a bag to put it in. A bag might have been tidy, but it does go into a small size without it, but it sort of opens up when you lift it, so a bag would have been nice. And second, keep in mind that it's legs are close together, and if you use it on a soft surface (damp dirt, etc.), it'll push in far to the ground because your weight is over it. It does not have a wide base of support from legs that extend beyond the chair itself; the legs are only directly under the chair. I have no issue toppling over in it, but the legs are not splayed like a bag chair, so you could never, for instance, use this on the beach unless you bring it to hard, wet sand maybe. I thank you.
