Oversized Director Chair

This is a very sturdy and spacious chair. The side folding table is perfect and has a cup holder and space to put a plate. The other side has a large pocket for books, an iPad, or kindle and separate smaller pockets for sun block or smaller items. Unfolding and folding this chair does require some strength behind it, but I don’t mind it when compared for overall sturdiness you get in exchange. There are two handles when it folds for carrying that could be improved if they were longer to allow for shoulder carrying, but all in all I’m happy with this chair.

Finally, a camping chair in which I am comfortable! Not only physically (no binds or protrusions) but also emotionally (feel secure and not worried about it collapsing). Solid construction is withstanding my heavy weight and accommodating my ample size. I sit high enough that it is easy to get in/out of the chair also. Side table is hugely convenient.The chair sets up and folds up easily but it does take a bit of experience to know just how to do it. Tip: don't over-think it.. just grab the sides of the seat bottom and either push out (set it up) or pull them together (fold up). Chair has carrying straps which help in transport.This chair is not as easy to lug around and store and the wimpy kind of chairs that fit into a tube bag. However, it is WELL WORTH it if you are a larger sized person and wants the security of a reliable chair.

I love this chair because it’s big enough for me and it’s sturdy. Also, I like that it has a side table. I think there are room for improvements though. The fabric at the seams are pulling even though I’ve only had it for 6 months or so. The seat has a gap between the fabric and the frame because when you sit in it, the fabric pushes back. It helps if I use a foot rest (less pressure on the undersides of my legs. The table came with a crack in it from shipping. And, I’ve added a pillow for back support because it feels like you fall back too far when you sit in it. But, again, it is a nice looking, wide, sturdy chair and those are hard to find for larger people.

Update: after just 4 times of having the chair out, I noticed the fabric pulling away from the seam in the seat (2nd photo) Ordered a 2nd replacement, unboxed it and literally threw it in the car, and headed to the final band competition. Arrived at my destination and proudly pulled out my new seat… and discovered the same issue on the second seat on the opposite seam. Still a great chair but I’m returning both for now.This is a great seat alternative to sitting in the bleachers! Includes a pocket for me to place a drink and snack for my kiddo after halftime and a fold out table for my stuff. Looking forward to taking it to the several band competition festivals this year and the next 4 years!

I bought this chair because I'm a big man and it states it's good for 600lbs. Now, I'm only a little over a third of that. I use it only a couple times a day to sit outside and let the dog exercise while I read. Other than that hour or so total, it stays inside. Not abused. Never left outside. Never wet. Today, the left side of the seat gave way. Looks like all the stitching or the fabric along the stich failed. On closer inspection, I see the right side was starting to fail also along with a tattering area of fabric on one side of the seat back. Given the country of manufacture, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Never the less, I am hugely disappointed and lucky I didn't get hurt. I'll reach out to the manufacturer but I don't expect any relief.

I am almost 400 lbs. This worked for me very well on my vacation inside the rental house and out in the backyard. It may be a little less convenient to carry than a chair that folds like an umbrella, but this is way better than the one I had that folds like that that I used to use.The strong solid metal arms let me use them to push to get up, unlike the sling of fabric for arms on my other chair. And the seat doesn't tilt you back like the other camp chair I have. That tilt might not seem like a big deal at first, but it makes it hard to use when at a table and eating with friends, and it makes it harder to get out of.This chair let me participate for a weekend vacation with my family in every way I wanted in comfort and without worrying about breaking any dining room or patio furniture. The fold out table on the side and the bags on the other side are particularly handy when outside. It really is an excellent product.

The last folding chair i bought for my generous frame was sturdy, well manufactured and had the folding tray on the side. What i couldn’t tell from the product listing was that the back tilted backwards a bit. I hate leaning back when i sit, and even putting a pillow back there was not enough to make it comfortable. Also it was very heavy for lugging around.This chair is also sturdy, well manufactured and has a folding tray on the side. However, it also has the little utility bag on the other side (bonus!), it’s much lighter, and the back is barely tilted at all. It’s very comfortable and i take it with me a lot of the time and now i can be assured that there’ll always be a comfortable place for me to sit no matter where we end up 😀 Eventually i’ll probably get a second one to keep in the car, too. 👍 I’m very satisfied with this purchase

worth the money

***update** I’ve had this a couple of months and it’s already coming apart at the seat, my husband is not a heavy person**I bought this for my husband for Father’s Day, he uses it everyday and just loves it. I find it pushes you forward a bit when you sit, but otherwise dry sturdy, convenient and comfortable.

This chair is a godsend for big people. TLDR: Sturdy, well built, carry handles need some work.If you're reading this review you are probably supersized like me. I'm 330 lbs and 31" inches wide. (Don't judge, lol) Everywhere I go I'm considering where I'm going to sit, will I fit, and will the chair hold my weight. I have sciatica and can't stand for more than a few minutes.Build quality is excellent, the side table is very sturdy, the side storage pouch is nice to have, but this adds up to a heavier chair which leads into the only issue I've found so far, which is that the carrying handles are too thin and cut into the hand and the straps feel like they will tear away from the fabric before too long. I'm going to beef up the stitching with some fishing line. As well, 6" X 1" hollow round plastic handles with the carry strap passing through the middle would be appreciated. An extra dollar or two is not going to make a difference to a chair at this price point.To protect it from abuse while getting thrown in the back of the truck, my wife is going to make a denim carry bag with a shoulder strap that goes around the whole perimeter so you are lifting it from the bottom. This chair replaces the old lighter weight version which has lasted for years, but is getting torn and feeling flimsy. This chair so far is rock steady.Comfort is also better than the previous chair although if you haven't had one of these before be aware that the bracing that makes this chair so great also may touch and put pressure against the back of your legs depending on your leg length. Sat for 3 hours with only moderate discomfort, which is a record for a lawn chair. I think this chair will last a long time.

First off - I love this chair! I know it’s a camping chair, but it’s perfect for me as a makeup artist! It doesn’t break my back like normal chairs do because this one allows the client to be at my height!The one thing I dislike the most about this product - is the price. It fluctuates so much, and as much as I love this chair it’s not worth the $300 price tag.Especially when I found it for the first time it was only $180 ishI bought mine a few weeks ago for $230ish and even that was slightly overpriced. Which is why I gave it a four star

I like it because of the size but this is the second one that I got because the first one ripped and the second one is doing the same. Why is this happening?
