5.0 out of 5 stars Best Outdoor Festival Chair Ever!!!, September 18, 2007

Perfect compact festival chairs.

I picked up two of these chairs for my wife and I to use at the Austin City Limits Music Festival in 2006 and we love them. We used them again this year and both years we have consistently had people asking us where we bought them, to the extent of it being somewhat annoying... :)

This chair is very well built.
Folds up into a small/light back pack, and is easy to transport. Although you should practice folding it back up at home before you drink too much beer.
Unfolds easily, and is simple to set up.
Sun shade is perfect for the hot Texas sun, although wind makes the shade a little unstable.
Arm rests have a drink holder and a zip pocket.

It would be great if Kelsyus made some small fold-able tent poles for the sun shade to stabilize the arm rest lines on breezy days.

I recently purchased two of the Kelsyus Reclining Backpack Beach Chairs with UV Canopy and love them. I already had two and wanted to have more because whenever we go to the beach with our family, every body wants to sit on those chairs. The original chairs are about 5 years old and still in good shape. No matter where we go on a vacation, someone will come over to us and ask where we bought our chairs. They are unusual but they work and are extremely comfortable. It's also great to carry them as a backpack which frees your hands for carrying other things.

1.0 out of 5 stars Defective chairs - no solution, May 13, 2008

I purchased 4 reclining beach chairs w/canopy. Every single one broke. When the metal frame is inserted into the webbing on the arms, the frame ripped right through the webbing. The company replaced the four chairs and they, in turn, broke the same way. The company states that this is a known problem but offers no help other than to replace the chairs once more.

To add insult to injury, within three days of using the chairs, the elastic cord required to hold it in the upright position snapped, the zipper on one of the pouch came off, and the loop on the canopy cover tore out. All this happended within the first day or two of use.
