This Mity Lite Flex One Folding chair was in use when it broke without warning, causing the seat to partially give away. The chair was used intermittently in little over a year. The chair is rated at a whopping 1,000 pounds; needless to say the occupants of the chair were never anywhere close to that kind of weight limit. This is a comfortable folding chair — until it breaks. A picture has been submitted with this review to demonstrate the failure that occurred. To Sam's Club credit, customer service issued a full refund even though the chair was beyond the typical return period at the time it failed under normal usage. Upon closer inspection prior to return, there was not just one major break but numerous cracks running through the perforated/latticed seat. Honestly, the manufacturer ought to consider a recall.

I picked up 6 of these at my local Sam's club. I was shopping with my daughter (12) who is petite. I'm a 2XL size guy and we both sat in the chair. We both thought it was the most comfortable folder chair we've sat in. We live in Honolulu, so the slats in the seat and back are welcomed for supreme airflow. Originally, I was looking for some aluminium chairs due to our salty air here in Hawaii (things rust here faster), but I decided to take the chance on the steel construction of these chairs. It's still relatively light weight but plenty sturdy and the powder coating on the steel should help it resist the elements and hopefully keep it free of rust for some time. I installed a rack system in my garage to hang them on the wall when not in use. They stack pretty thinly which is a big plus.

Being a bridge player, I've sat numerous times in folding chairs at a card table. Most of these chairs have a hard seat. Even when they don't, the angle of the back support is askew. The Flex One folding chair stands apart from most others in being comfortable. The flexible, diamond pattern black plastic is the key. These chairs subtly adjust to the shape of your body for a contour fit. Don't be fooled into thinking plastic means cheap or weak. These chairs are both rugged and good looking.

I purchased 250 of these chairs for our brunch. The customers were wowed by the strength and quality. Had one customer about 400 lbs and he said it was the first time he's sat in a folding chair that he felt safe. Great look. Several customers asked where they could buy them.

This is a remarkable new style of chair design. It is very strong and the company advertises it supports over 1000 lbs. Hubby and I don't weigh near that much, but we do present a major challenge to ordinary casual furniture. Plus, the old metal seats on chairs are hard to sit on - this new chair has a "hammock" type of seat pan. The chair is indeed strong and we both felt secure when sitting in ours. At the low price, we can use it for picnics, fishing, outdoor activities. The chairs also look good enough to serve indoors too. We also went back and bought some to give family members.

Heavy family members and guests have broken down my sofa cushions and dining room chairs. A friend suggested this chair and it is perfect! I bought several for those special guests and invite them to sit in comfort and safety. I like them also. Win-win situation! And good value. They are much more expensive elsewhere.

I liked these chairs enough to buy bulk. We intend to use these chairs for our youth room at church, which means we need multi purpose, sturdy chairs that can be picked up and taken outside/inside easily, easy to clean and won't show stains. These chairs do all of the above. I do need to register one complaint that seems simple enough to fix for Mity Lite. This was enough of a bother to me to consider repurchasing these chairs. A Green sticker comes on the front side of the chair back rest. That green sticker is really difficult to get off of the chair, even if you peel it away carefully and slowly. I purchased the bulk 40 count of the chairs and have to go through each individual chair, scraping off sticker residue (picture included). It just kind've lessens the excitement of a new purchase to have to scrape it meticulously. If you guys could figure this out - you'd have a great product and a 5 star review from me.

I was unsure of these chairs because they were so reasonably priced. They look like wrought iron so they are much more attractive than I thought. Everyone who sits in one of these chairs comments on how comfortable it is. I highly recommend these chairs.

Comfortable chairs and they stack well

These are superior to metal chairs. They "flex" and provide more comfort for sitting.
