The rear towel bar, or extra support bar when laying back. This bar is very stiff when new. DO NOT pull with one hand, you take the chance of bending or breaking the bar. grab both sides of the towel bar and pull up fast and firmly. It may not budge the first time, (I was afraid of breaking the plastic hinge). this might take 3-4 times. But it worked. Now the chairs themselves. We purchased two chairs with the matching umbrella. We couldn't be happier. The build quality, the pouches, cooler on the back, the mutiple recliner positions and most importantly the comfortability of the chairs. If you're comparing these to others. these are great! Very comparable to other more expensive name brands.

I wanted to like these chairs, but unfortunately they were terrible. Upon opening, I tried it on as a backpack and the lower bar digs into your back terribly. Uncomfortable, and definitely not ideal, but not a deal breaker. Then, I opened one up to sit and test it out, and the bar digs into your lower back while sitting in it, too! I can't imagine sitting on the beach in one of those chairs for an extended period of time. While I was on my way to return them, a big piece of sharp metal poked out at the top near the handle while I was walking across the parking lot. Overall really disappointed in the quality, which is surprising for Sam's Club.

I have purchased plenty of beach chairs and am so impressed with this one! We are very frequent beach-goers, used 2 of these chairs all last season and there's no sign of wear. These beach chairs are truly the best quality for such an affordable price. I love Member's Mark!!

These chairs are low-priced, sturdy, look nice, and have great added features more expensive chairs don't. They're slightly taller than some, but it's still a short beach chair. The catch is in the towel rack/upper support. The instructions say to lift by it, but it doesn't budge. Don't force it: instead, loosen the nuts about 1 turn and it will move in a notchy manner. I wondered why most customer pics don't show the bar extended. Problem solved.

Love it except hard to get used to open and close

Comfortable and easy to carry. The storage pockets are great.

Chairs are really nice and good quality

Greay value for a great product. Cant wait to use them at the beach

This chair is super comfortable. It’s easy to fold up and unfold. Seems pretty durable. Can’t really use it yet since it’s the middle of winter. Cute and convenient storage area. It’s low to the ground so easily accessible for kids

Nice and study little chair. Handy and compact enough to carry around in the trunk as a backup for when you need it. My son loves the comfort options and the way “the seat feels so comfortable!” So overall a win! Will be getting one for myself and my husband… since my son took over mine!
