    • Phenomenal all around choice for a beach chair
Size: Sunshade Backpack Beach Chair Color: Royal Blue
I'd searched in stores and online for a good beach chair for years. This one ticks all the boxes just as a chair, with the sun shade as a surprisingly handy bonus. As a chair it's comfortable, and that's what I'd expect. The folding and adjustment mechanisms are both smooth and sturdy. Folded, it carries easily and comfortably. The shade has really impressed me. It offers good coverage while also being simple to deploy and stow. It can the adjusted easily with one hand and stays in place once set. Even in strong winds it will hold its position. If you've been researching and debating chairs in search of the one that's just right, definitely go for this one. ... show more

    • BEST CHAIR EVER BEST CHAIR EVER

*Light weight. *Easy to carry - padded straps to wear like a backback *Easy open and close *Back "pocket" holds a lot of stuff and has a drawstring closure so nothing falls out * LARGE cup holder easily holds over-sized cups *VERY sturdy canopy - holds up extremely well, even in steady and gusty beach winds *Comfortable seat - no bar under the legs *Firm, sturdy, comfy arm rests and the back adjusts easily. We experience some pretty significant winds on our recent trip to the beach. The canopy handled it with ease. I was amazed! That being said............ if the canopy is up on a really windy day, somebody needs to be sitting in it or it will blow away. I tried to move the chair when the wind was blowing really hard and it almost knock me (a 160 lb woman) over. It pushed me backwards for several feet before i could stop it. I had to fall forward in the chair just to make it stop. It was actually hilarious. I wish I had a video of that to share........ trying to come up with a negative, but there just are none. Best beach chair hands down. I write a fair amount of reviews and I try to be as fair and informative as I can. I've never been paid or offered discounts for any of them. Somebody sign me up for that! ... show more

    • The perfect beach chair
Size: Sunshade Backpack Beach Chair Color: Royal Blue
Everything you need with cup holder and option to pull up umbrella for shade - also, not quite as low as other beach chairs so easier to get up from

    • Great for fair skin, needing shade folks
Size: Sunshade Backpack Beach Chair Color: Royal Blue
I was really impressed with this chair! I live in Chicago and have very fair skin so lake hangs can be tough. The canopy is great and sturdy even in Chicago wind, and it’s very comfortable for seating. The backpack strap doesn’t fit as well as I’d hoped but still works, hence the 4-stars but otherwise an essential beach item. ... show more

    • Comfortable & flexible
Size: Sunshade Backpack Beach Chair Color: Royal Blue
Took them to the beach and they worked great. The backpack straps are a great feature although it takes a bit of getting used to them putting them on and getting the chair in place on your back. Thae sunshade if fully flexible and we were able to adjust as the sun moved. The chair reclined to a comfortable tilt level and the fabric is breathable so allows for airflow to help keep cooler. ... show more

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Bought 2 of these chairs a couple seasons ago. I wish I had at least 2 more. They are the best beach chairs!!! They are very comfortable (not so low that us older people can’t get in & out of them with ease), have their own little shade which is big enough to at least cover your head & face, a cup holder, a pocket on side & a big one on the back, they clip to secure closure after folded, & they store flat for easy packing in car. The sewn-in backpack straps make them a hands-free carry to the beach, leaving your hands free for other things & easy/light enough as a backpack so a pre-teen girl can easily carry her own plus other things in hands. The only negative I found was that you have to grab the bottom of the chair (the metal bars) in order to fold flat & you have to lay them down in the sand to do that. This sometimes flings sand on everything & is a little clunky/tough to figure out at first, but as long as you’re aware & careful, it’s not a huge deal. Even after 2 years, 4 beach trips, 2 winters in the garage, & many car rides strapped to the roof rack, they still fold relatively easily. The positives far outweigh the negatives!!! I’d highly recommend. ... show more

    • Chair will not hold any of the 4-positions of recline!
Size: Sunshade Backpack Beach Chair Color: Royal Blue
Chair will not hold any of the 4-positions of recline, it collapses all the way reclined and locks up. There is too much loose room in the underarm track locking channels. I'm extremely disappointed! Paid a premium price for what I thought was a premium beach chair. Chair was only used twice a year for last three years and the rest of the chair is in like new condition, but it is not useable now due to the flaw. GCI product support was not helpful, only stating that the chair was technically "out of warranty". ... show more
