As a chair it's comfortable, and that's what I'd expect. The folding and adjustment mechanisms are both smooth and sturdy. Folded, it carries easily and comfortably.
The shade has really impressed me. It offers good coverage while also being simple to deploy and stow. It can the adjusted easily with one hand and stays in place once set. Even in strong winds it will hold its position.
If you've been researching and debating chairs in search of the one that's just right, definitely go for this one.
We experience some pretty significant winds on our recent trip to the beach. The canopy handled it with ease. I was amazed! That being said............ if the canopy is up on a really windy day, somebody needs to be sitting in it or it will blow away. I tried to move the chair when the wind was blowing really hard and it almost knock me (a 160 lb woman) over. It pushed me backwards for several feet before i could stop it. I had to fall forward in the chair just to make it stop. It was actually hilarious. I wish I had a video of that to share........
trying to come up with a negative, but there just are none. Best beach chair hands down.
I write a fair amount of reviews and I try to be as fair and informative as I can. I've never been paid or offered discounts for any of them. Somebody sign me up for that!

It's big and bulky though, and the straps aren't comfortable. So our deal is that for beach trips, she can carry it if she wants to sit on it. I'll just wear a hat and use my chair that's 1/4 of the weight and 1/10 of the packed size.

like the one in the photo.
However, the lightweight materials make it really flimsy and breakable.
