31" Directors Chair

I bought this chair because I go to a large number of my son's sporting events and am always getting up and down out of a regular height chair dozens of times each game. I have had 5 major back surgeries and am left with leg weakness and very limited torso mobility and getting up out of a chair was like watching a giraffe stand up from a lying down position. So I chose a high seat position, bar height in this case, so instead of sitting down into a chair and then getting up out of the chair my backside stayed just about the same height whether sitting or standing. A lot easier on the knees, legs and back. The chair seems very well made and sturdy with snug fittings and taut fabric, despite being extremely lightweight for the amount of overall materials involved. No slop in the system at all, no shifting or squeaking or weak arms just waiting to snap off. There is another piece of the same sturdy aluminum frame that folds down from a small velcro lashing to become a cross bar for your feet to help get into and out of the seat -- what I thought was going to be this chair's achilles heel. But no issues of weakness or fear of bending or breaking or tearing it under my 295# weight. Fold up side tray on the right side is sizable and also sturdy and easily locks into place, strong enough to hold a couple full insulated drink glasses or jugs, a couple pro DSLR cameras w big lenses, and a small cooler full of power-ade, ice, and water. A good and sturdy net also is there under the seat at about the height of the foot crossbar so you dont have to put things on the ground that you might not want to get wet of damaged in foot traffic around you. Packs away easily -- just put down the tray and raise and velcro the crossbar, then grab either side of the seat and lift and it all folds down to a flat size of about 4 feet tall by 20 inches front to back by about 6 inches in final collapsed thickness. Comes with a huge zipper cover with a shoulder sling, the cover made out of the same material as the seat, but it is a bit tough to manipulate the big chair into the cavernous cover, so I leave the cover off and just carry the seat by itself. It is surprisingly extremely light for how much aluminum and fabric and fittings go into the chair. Although the chair was not cheap it was only about twice the cost of other heavy duty chairs I have bought (both short and tall ones), none of which lasted more than about half a season before breaking part of the frame or tearing out the fabric someplace critical. And this chair is way lighter and thus easier to carry and simple to set up. I expect this to last a couple years/half a dozen seasons of soccer and baseball, instead of half a season and then relegated to the trash. If asked if I would buy it again, I would have to say that as sturdy as this is I do not expect to need to buy another one for the foreseeable future. But if I did I would gladly buy it again. Best folding camp/spectator/picnic chair I personally have ever sat in and/or owned. Until I bought this I would never have believed such a lightweight chair would be sturdy enough to bear my weight and my level of activity getting into and out of this chair several times an hour without the chair giving out the slightest groan. The only creaks, cracks, or groans come from my knees or my back, not this chair.

I bought this because I am 6 months pregnant and had to start teaching "art on a cart" this year. Since this would involve visiting classrooms and teaching stationed at the cart standing up all day, I needed a seat solution that could accomodate the height of the cart. I also needed a chair that I could easily fold up and bring with me on the cart. THIS CHAIR WAS PERFECT! It is super lightweight and folds up neatly so I was able to hang it to my cart using hooks, making it so easy to bring with me. It is actually pretty comfortable and I can sit in it most of the day without complaint. It is very sturdy and I feel secure in it. This has saved me from achey feet, and it will be a great chair to use in other instances I am sure!

I’m a professional hairstylist and master level MUA. I have been in search of a great quality chair without breaking the bank and I found it! I’m 5’6” and 3/4 (lol i always add that last one!) this is perfect height for anyone probably 5’0” and taller. The tray table folds down and doesn’t have to be left up, there are 4 or 5 storage pockets on the left side of the chair. Also there is a cup holder on the tray too. I like the mesh sling underneath because really almost anything can go here to help clear up some clutter while you work on your guest. When I sat down in the chair, it felt very sturdy and I didn’t feel like I was sitting in a wooden directors chair. Those are prettier but they are not long lasting or practical for freelance (traveling MUA). It was a little hard for me to rest my feet on the foot bar, I kind of kept sliding on the fabric. But I had leggings on too. ANYWAYS, I have nothing negative at all to say about this great directors/MUA chair.

Love the height of the chair. It's very sturdy and lite weight. It's a little hard for me to fold it up and the Velcro was not seen on very well to hold up the side selve. Otherwise I love it!

Love the chair.

Excellent chair for trade-show booths

Bought this chair for my wife she does trade shows and she needed a chair that set up higher so she could see over her table and people looking at her stuff. Great chair, lightweight folds up, easy to store easy to travel with definitely recommend buying one.

If I could give a zero star rating I would. I bought two of these chairs to use at venues/craft fairs that I set up at. These were the perfect height for what we needed. They did not hold up at all. My business partner is of small stature weighing about 150 pounds. Well under the weight limit. After just four uses the chair came apart. The seams ripped right out of the chair. It was a total waste of my money. Would not reccomend.

I love this chair so much. It’s very big uncomfortable and not too high.
