Over 6,000 customers have rated this affordable folding chair five out of five stars. One happy reviewer said: "The seat does not hang/sag down like other bag chairs which is good for me. Regular bag chairs typically hurt my back but these did not. A little smaller scale with a lower back."
"I absolutely love this chair!" said one happy shopper. "I took it to the beach and was very comfortable. It’s so light. I bought 2. One for the beach and one for the pool. So glad I did!"
A bit heavier around 13 lbs, this packable chair has an attached table for meals around the grill or campfire. It folds into a small square for easy transportation.
"I have purchased these chairs for me, my kids, and other family members, and they are the best!" said one reviewer. "We don't have a small family and these chairs are sturdy and stand up over time. I highly recommend these chairs. This is not a gifted or paid review, just a truly satisfied customer."
At under 3 lbs, this is one of the lightest folding chairs on the market.
"Got this chair for my dad and it’s become the family’s favorite chair," said one reviewer about this chair rated 5 stars by over 70,000 shoppers. "My nieces/nephew and sister use it all the time when they come over and my dad enjoys just sitting outside his camper, listening to his music and rocking the day away."
At 9 lbs each, these retro chairs have been a favorite over the years. Based on reviews, elderly customers particularly enjoy this style due to this higher seat and sturdy construction.
Offering five different chair positions, this 8 lb chair can lean back so you can tan on the beach or sit up straight to better read a book.
One promising review said: "I love my new chair. The legs come off so you can use this as a stationary chair as well. Super easy to set up, I love that it has a big cup holder and another cubby for my phone. I haven't used the canopy but love that it has one. Price is reasonable compared or other chairs I've seen. Highly recommend."
"I bought these for my daughter and grandson when we take our trips to the beach," said one reviewer about this best-selling chair. "Sturdy and nice quality. The cooler bag on the side is perfect for snacks."
"These are fantastic chairs. Padded seat is super comfortable," raved one shopper. "They fold up flat and are easy to carry. Much nicer than sling chairs, and easier to get in and out. They are perfect for watching high school sports and camping."
