I bought two of these chairs and was able to open them with no problem. When I tried to close them they would not close. I tried to figure out the drawing of the instructions and couldn’t get them to close. Two other people at the beach tried and the chairs would not fold. Today I took them back to Sam’s and got my money back. It is hard to believe that Sam’s would sell such an inferior product.

The best feature about these chairs besides that they are over sized and comfortable, is the extra strap attached to the chair. I mostly use these at outdoor concerts, when allowed, and the strap allows me to leave the bag in the car, and still have a way to carry them on my shoulders.

Absolutely terrible once its open. It doesn't close. Had multiple people try, even two people at a time, and it would not budge. Ended up putting it in the trunk and tying the trunk lid down just so I could get home with it. Then watched a video on how to close it. Surprise more people have had this difficulty. Well, you just use a hammer and pound on the glides. So that the arms can go up and it will collapse. I guess ill carry a hammer. It's a terrible design. Love the color and sits comfortable.

We have 4 of these chairs. On folding them you stand behind them and pull up from the middle of the front seat. We were frustrated until we figured this out. The directions should be included in the sale to eliminate the frustration for buyers!!!!!!

Very nice chair, but difficult to fold. The directions to fold them are good but it gets stuck and will make the you think the directions are wrong. Put WD-40 on all the parts that slide because it binds pretty bad in thos areas. Fold and unfold several times after that and you should be good.

Not a bad chair, so far, a bit heavy and it seems durable but the carrying bag is poorly designed. Most chairs of this type have a carrying bag handle strap that can be slipped over the back of the chair so it doesn't get lost or blown away when the chair is out of the bag. This chair bag's strap is too short to fit over the back of the chair. A simple thing that could be easily done at the time of manufacture to make the product much more functional.

These chairs are a GREAT bargain! Shipping is a little high, but understandable since they ship separately, packaged well. Be aware that they are heavy! I returned our two because they are too heavy for two senior citizens to carry for any distance for sports events, concerts, etc. Selling at other big box stores for much more! Get yours while they are in stock!

Looked nice in the store, was comfy to sit in. Then impossible to close (this was the first time using). We had 3 of them and all of them were jammed and would not close! We had 3 people on the beach come by and try to help. We all looked at the pitiful instructions, which indicated they should close just like every other folding chair of this type we'd used in the past. We even watched online videos, one of which recommended using a hammer to tap the feet to close it! Like we carry a hammer on the beach with us. So embarrassing to have carry back to our car fully opened. Managed to finally get 2 of the 3 closed by beating the feet on the parking lot. This garbage is going back for a refund tomorrow. Easily my worst purchase ever from Sam's Club. Very disappointed!

A very nice chair for a great price. These are well crafted, stable, and just the ticket for a weekend of camping or just relaxing in your yard. Far better than the cheapo ones sold at discount stores. Store them properly and you'll likely get a few years use from them...

Great support, comfortable seat
