Tommy Bahama 5-Position Classic Lay Flat Folding Backpack Beach Chair, Polyester, Navy

Just took this chair to the beach for its FIRST USE and it broke!!! I reclined back and it snapped!!!! I am 5’11” and 190. Poor, pathetic materials! DO NOT BUY THIS!!!!

Got these chairs on sale. They are sturdy and appear to be holding up well. The colors are bright and have not faded. The pockets are nice and they are comfortable to sit in. They are on the heavier side but the backpack straps help alleviate that.

The first chair we ordered came with a defective zipper, but was promptly replaced. Love the wooden armrests and the print. Easy to fold and light to carry. Doesn’t feel “cheap” like other chairs. The backpack straps work great. Sits nice and low really letting you stretch out those legs. 10/10 would sit again.

I can’t believe I’ve been going to the beach all these years with no chair. This works amazing and life changing very comfy and relaxing. It’s a little hard getting up because it’s low so may be harder for an older person but all in all it’s great. Very light weight easy to carry like a backpack.

Beautiful beach chairs and worth spending a little more $ on them. The chair is made well--over-sized for comfort, good quality material, well thought-out pillow and storage, handy cooler that fits cans or bottles and snacks. I gave it 4 stars because it's missing the bottle-opener, it does not recline a true 180, and it arrived a day late.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Love that it lays completely flat with the folding support bar that doubles as a towel rack when sitting in upright position. Durable. Sturdy. Comfortable. Portable. This is one of my best purchases in a long time. Love, love this chair.

I think this is a great beech chair with great features, BUT:As I imagine many buyers would, I took it out of the box, opened it out, sat down, enjoyed the comfort, then tried to adjust the position and almost lost a finger against an unreasonably sharp edge. Turns out it can be dangerous to put your fingers in a certain position when adjusting the seat back, and the manufacturer knows this! That's why, as I later discovered, they place the following all caps warning in the instructions: DO NOT PUT FINGERS UNDERNEATH ARMS. But who would read the instructions before first sitting down? It's a beach chair, after all! We adults have openened many before and don't imagine we need instructions except for special features. I suggest the manufacturer remedy the problem or at the very attach a prominent tag warning to one of the chair arms.Despite this issue, I was so enamored with the chair I planned to keep it, and so we took it to the beach to try. While there, when my wife tried to stand up from the chair after having been sitting in an upright position, the chairback suddenly and forcefully dropped backwards into a full 180 degree recline, with my wife on it. One of the wooden arms of the chair split, releasing the pin that connected it to the rest of the chair. That was truly dangerous. My wife is not petite, but at less than 150 lbs she's a far cry from the chair's stated weight limit of 250 lbs. In fairness, I think this may have been at least a little my wife's "fault." I'm guessing that in an effort to stand she first pulled herself forward using the chair arms, thus releasing the position lock. But still. Nothing like that has ever happened to us with a conventional aluminum beach recliner. And surely the chair should not have broken. Needless to say i'll be returning it.

so light weight yet sturdy..love the pockets and cooler lined pouch attached to the back
