What Outside Chair?
What do you lot recommend for outside chairs? Would like the type that fold up into their own carry bag. (mostly because they are easier to store).

We have tried a few and are very happy with these

Strong, stable light, robust and comfortable.

Haven't seen them, but ones with a drink tray are very useful. Don't go cheap or they'll end up like so many I've seen discarded because of failure and frustration.Dot wrote:... Would like the type that fold up into their own carry bag. (mostly because they are easier to store).
Experience is a wonderful thing. It helps you recognise a mistake when repeated.

Re: What Outside Chair?
We have a pair of the wild country recliner chairs (Rays)
We also have a pair of Coleman chairs. Neither set were cheap, but depends on the day what ones we use
Try to get ones with metal feet, they are way stronger
We found the flat fold chairs a pain to store

Re: What Outside Chair?
After far too many sets of chairs over the yrs it came down to spending the $$ and getting what we really liked, and after 5yrs we are still happy with them, all the others lasted 1 trip away and their faults had us looking for something else. We would have saved quite a bit of money if we had bought these in the first pace

Re: What Outside Chair?
The type that have the tray for drinks etc - a la dapope's - are very hand.
You've seen ours... comfortable & reclining but sizeable to store & not too light.
Try as many as yo can before you buy & imagine yourself sitting down for happy hour with drinks & nibbles.
Some good choices out there but what we or others might pick might not suit you.
As you said - bum into seats is the way to go - & don't rush it.

We have the folding aluminum chairs from Rays Outdoors online. Very light and robust and have the drink tray on the side also. Tried fold up ones with the bag buy too much trouble unpacking.Dot wrote:Thanks everyone, time to do the bums on seats test next time near BCF.
