3.0 out of 5 stars Colors not accurate, but quality workmanship, April 27, 2009

If colors are important to you on this item, you should know that this chair is NOT *navy* with pewter looking trim. This chair is much closer to a royal blue, and the "pewter" looking trim is much closer to a silver. Since this did not match our outdoor patio color scheme we had to return these chairs and order a different color.

In addition, if you are under, say 5'5", you will probably be more comfortable in this chair with a pillow behind your back. I'm 5'2" and I felt like a child sitting in a grown up's chair when I sat in this chair. If I sat with the small of my back all the way up against the back of the chair, my feet barely touched the floor. The chair was too deep for the shortness of my legs without a pillow behind my back. With a pillow, it was fine, though. This chair is definitely sized for the tall person who weighs over 200 lbs. The frame seemed very sturdy. I can believe it would support the 400+ pounds the manufacturer claims it can support. When my 6 ft, 300 lb. husband sat in it he said it was very comfortable and felt very secure under his weight.

I also thought these chairs are priced too high, but then again, a 300 pound man doesn't have a lot of options in camp chairs, and I'm sure this one will service him well.

I should also add that these are very lightweight and fold flat easily. They would be perfect for camping or just about any outdoor activity.

The 3 star rating is because of the color issue and being priced too high. There were no issues with the quality of the chair itself.

Color in picture is brown but blue in box. the knee to back distance is too great for me. I will need a pillow at my back. Otherwise it is as described.
