- Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2016We love this seat! It perfectly solved our problem! We needed something to take to the beach, that would fit under the 4 ft tall shelter we have for our grandbaby. I was killing my back trying to sit on the ground and feed her.....and getting up dang near killed me! This seat is so perfect for this.....the cushion seat is extra soft on the hard packed sand/shell ground, and the adjusting sides means I can have total back support.....I found I can even rock back and forth in the seat with the baby in my arms...perfect! What a lifesaver this seat has been! We looked at other seats online, and read all the specs and reviews, and this one, even though it was a bit more money, definitely was what we needed......totally worth the few extra bucks! Plus, we love that it has the straps to carry on my back.....it's very lightweight, I don't even know I'm carrying it.....but that means I don't waste precious space in the wagon for it! Awesome!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2013I took this with me on a camping trip in the mountains. The chair is very bulky, and unless you have a car or porters then you won't be able to take it. The construction is solid, and I'm a 6'3" 220lb guy and I didn't have any issues with the straps holding, nor the seat going too flat (it kept the chill from climbing from the ground to my backside), and was wide enough not to feel constricted.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2015I bought these for an outdoor lawn seating concert that ended up being cancelled.they were in the car for when we went to see Dancing with the Stars & since I live with a really painful illness I figured I had nothing to lose by taking it into the show. Wow was I ever surprised the padding was awesome and the back once I got the adjustment down gave me a lot of back support too. I usually can't make it to the first intermission without having to leave my seat cause I'm in so much pain. I'm also squirming in my seat like a bored 5 yr old cause I hurt so bad. Shocker I made it to the end all I did was stand up for about 5 minutes and I was good to go. Anything that helps me enjoy life and reduce my pain are few and far between. This seat gave me just those things and I'm so grateful to the people who made them. Seriously give them a try if you're like me or to just be more comfortable.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2016These seats are strong and have extra cushioning in the seat portion. both myself and my husband are large people and they fit very comfortably.The fabric seems to be quite strong an yet is soft to the touch. The straps are cushioned so they are easy to carry, just perfect for spectator sports with bleacher seats. No more tired back when you are supposed to be enjoying yourself!

- Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2019This is what I was looking for. The design is pretty good. The only problem is the straps don't lock into place when you lean back so you slowly slide.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2018Well made, well designed, easy to use, comfortable. I like the thicker foam than the older models I've had. And the backpack straps are helpful.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2015My husband and I are not small people so it was hard to find a stadium seat that was comfortable. We use these for floating the river to give our backs support. They worked great. Very well made. And I love the fact they have a back pack strap so if your hands are full, you throw it on your back.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for sitting on floor too!
I bought this product to use in India where I would be sitting on the floor at spiritual retreat. It was exactly what I needed - gave me the back support and cushion without being a large item to bring into the centre. I highly recommend!
