<<best thing is that the arms are solid and you can push down on them to help>>
Thanks for the coupon Rob, saves $14 on a couple of them vs lowest adv price. I was just saying last night we should get new chairs and wanted to try this style.
All the "reviews" say this is a fantastic chair, even one from a guy that says he weighs 450 !!!! Worth a try to check out the table and pocket.
Would suggest Rob that when you push on the arms to get up, hold near the front or rear of the arm, near the legs, not in the middle of the span.

Don,
Actually I lied - a little bit - we got ours from Sam's several years ago (paid more) and they are steel. However, I sat in one of
these at HF (265 lb) and picked it up and wished I needed a couple as they were MUCH lighter than our steel ones.
Regards,
Rob M.

You got even better Mac, the coupon says limit 3!
It may take all four to last as long as Rob's steel one?

Hmmm.... The linked picture says 1 per customer per day. Since it says
only on 6/6/2013, I assume 1 total...? I'll have to take someone with me.

We have similar chairs we bought at Sportsman's Warehouse. Only ours are steel and heavy. The disadvantages of that are obvious, but the advantage is that they stay put in the wind. At several Saguaro Jetset rallies, the wind has come up over night, and blown everyone else's chairs all over, but ours have stayed right where we left them.

My print of the coupon was also quite fuzzy. But the clerk made it work and I bought two.
The quality seems ok. The fabric is heavier than I thought it might be, even has a bit of a cushion in the seat. I love having the table and the several pockets attached. The light weight is nice for carrying, I'm sure it will blow in the wind and won't last forever. But for $23 looks like a good value.
Thanks Rob for the coupon and the heads up.

Thanks. After reading this note I boldly went in and got their last 3
today. I brought a spare coupon just in case. The cashier never even
read it, just scanned it.

I have a wonderful world with folding tables and chairs and decorations outdoor fire,
video, real cool. However I am now researching some inflateable stuff for a soft place for the bottom.Its tough to spend any real time in any style chair even with cushions.
I have it all packed proper too with space to spare.
