Oversized Padded Zero Gravity Chair, Folding Outdoor Patio Recliner, XL Anti Gravity Lounger for Backyard w/Headrest, Cup Holder, Side Tray, Polyester Mesh - Gray

This is the second one I’ve bought. It is really easy to operate, very comfortable, and reasonably priced. I read a post dated July 9th by Sureshoe on this chair and took his advice and have a bit more to add. First, Sureshoe suggested tightening the screws some to prevent the nut from coming off. Great idea. Now, add to that some LocTight/ thread lock compound to the threads exposed as in pic. This will add to the probability of the nut staying on. Second, I took some 3/4” foam pipe insulation (3/4” hole and about 2” in diameter), made a slit along the slit line in the foam tubing and cut four 5” pieces to attach to the corner bottom braces so as to buffer the hard ground or ground irregularities. By protecting the braces this way, the plastic is less likely to wear out or crack. They are attached with two zip ties. Next, I attached about a 20” or so piece of the same foam pipe insulation around the lower part that comes up to meet/hold one’s feet. The pic shows the three zip ties I used…..with…..the pulled out tabs for tightening the zip ties facing downward away from where my legs/feet will rest. Now the chair is, imho, perfect. It rests on padding not wearing out the plastic corner braces, has padding for my feet, and the nuts are more firmly set and less likely to loosen up and fall off. I have owned many of such chairs for camping, porch use, and for hours of sitting at car shows and these are simply THE best I’ve come across. After a while with the “pool noodle like” foam pipe insulation, I replaced them with a denser foam pipe insulation and put a rubber tape on the bottoms to protect the insulation from an abrasive ground. The cheaper pool noodle type foam tended to pop/crush real easily causing me to redo with the denser pipe insulation. I also double rolled with pipe insulation the foot rest so there is no digging into the backs of your legs when resting your feet/legs on it. I used 3/4” ID for the covering of the metal leg piece and 11/4” ID to go over the first covering. Using the next size bigger allows for a more thorough wrap on top of the first. Btw…..when I put the foam on the bar prior to the zip ties, I put rubber cement on the metal bar and the inside of the foam so as to prevent free rolling. I also used rubber cement on the outside of the first foam and on the inside of the second foam all prior to doing up the zip ties. See pics 4-7. This did not take too long to do and is well worth the effort. It also does not cost much to do. Both my chairs have been working great and my long legs no longer get that “dug in” soreness after resting them on the double-padded foot rest while napping in the chair on my porch. Well…..spring is almost here, and my wife decided she wanted one of these too. Yep….I ordered a third chair and got it today. It came quickly and had no damage. I put the lock -tite on the 4 or 5 nuts on each side and it’s ready to go out to the screened in porch soon. Just thought you might like to know that my buying a third one means I really like these. After all, my car show chair (lots of sitting) did half a season last year just wonderfully.

These chairs are perfect for our needs. They're comfortable, move up and down effortlessly, and easily lock into place. Highly recommended.

Great chair. Very comfortable and easy to open, recline and close. The only drawback I have found is the plastic cup holder they include doesn’t really stay on the chair due to where it attaches to the chair is on the bars that need to move when reclining or closing the chair. I also noticed that along both sides where the chair fabric attaches to the metal, there are rust spots starting to appear.

I wish I would have bought more! These chairs are such a great quality for the price! They are so easy to set up and take down. And the cup holder is easy to put on either side of the chair. They are pretty lightweight compared to the ones at academy. But I do wish they had some form of strap or carrying bag. They are comfortable, not to soft not to firm. But it’s wide enough for my husband to sit in them comfortably with no complaints! They function as regular chairs or recliners. Needless to say they are wonderful!

This is the best portable lounge chair that I have come across: sturdy, comfortable and wide enough so that you can change positions readily. It has two minor faults that can be easily and cheaply remedied. The foot of the lounge is too short, in that it hits me at the back of my ankles, and I am not a tall man. This problem is easily correct by placing a 3/4" foam pipe insulation (just over $3 at Lowe's) around the lowest bar. A swimming noodle can also be used, but the pipe insulation is self sealing. Secondly, head cushion is rubbish, as it is too thin, but is easily fixed by a throw pillow. Even with these minor faults, the lounge is fantastic!

Very well built but heavier than I expected. You wouldn’t want to carry it to a grandkids sports game. But once there very comfortable.

Searched for a comfortable lounger to take on the road with our coach. Loved the color selections offered. I purchased the dark burgundy and black. Very sharp in person. I chose this lounge over my initial thought of getting a lounger with the cushy padding. I didn’t want to play with adding that separate cushion and storing another item under our coach since space is an issue. Plus.. what I consider cushy padding didn’t seem to match what was told in reviews mentioning the padding was not very thick. And I assume over time and use it would be flattened down so much.. I decided against it. This chair came full assembled in a large box. I tried it immediately and it is comfortable. Not like a lazy boy- but comfortable for what I will need it for. It isn’t a light weight lounger. So keep in mind it’s heavy. I like that the construction material tubing is black and also the arm rests. It takes a try or two to get use to how to operate it. But it’s easy to figure out. I read another female review and she added the black foam pipe insulation to the very bottom support on the lounger where the back of you ankles would rest, depending on your height. I’m 5’9, my husband is 6’2. I added it and secured with black zip ties. Perfect! I like the weight capacity of the lounger. The material is a thick canvas type. I also like the plastic attachment for drinks and whatever. For the price- I think it’s worth it. Time will tell once I start using it full time. It’s quiet, not flimsy. Has a firm seating to it. It’s not really padded. It’s just the thick canvas. You won’t sink into this lounger- if you’re looking to sink in and be super cozy… then this may not be what you are looking for. But it is comfortable. I might spray the canvas with a water repellent for those rainy days.

My weight is under the maximum rating for the chair and the chair visually appeared that it would support me easily. However, while sleeping in it for the second time in the zero gravity position, which is most comfortable in this chair. I awoke in the night with the back of my head hitting hard against the floor (using it indoors to ensure that I can use it when traveling) and with my right shoulder hitting the frame of the chair (later caused a large bruise in that area). I didn't know what happened, and at 75 years old I struggled to get out of the chair because of my semi-inverted position. After getting up I noticed that the backs of both plastic armrests were torn from their mounts and both mounting bolts were severely bent; bolts that attach to the lower and upper sections of the chair. With that happening, the entire upper half of the chair broke free from those mounts and the upper half of my body tumbled to the floor. My right shoulder was also bruised when it came in contact with the tubular frame with the forced of my body ramming downward against it. After seeing the damaged ends of the armrests and bent mounting pins that supported that upper section, I understood that was why this happened. It's a flimsy mount, poorly engineered by loading up the main back support by using 1/4 inch bolts through plastic. After careful inspection, I noticed that the locknuts on other bolts in the chair were loose, as if they were never tightened fully (the chair comes fully assembled). I thought that maybe the company wanted more freedom of movement when tipping the chair back back, so perhaps they didn't tighten them fully. There is also an issue with the braking mechanism in the chair with the looped-locked finger controls that put a tab into a grooved slot to lock. This is also plastic and it could have caused this near catastrophe to occur had it failed to maintain the lock while the chair is fully back. When the chair collapsed, the inside bolt holes in the frame tubing itself were ripped open, leaving only the outer holes left to support the upper rack, which in-turn gave way causing the upper deck to lose ALL attachment to the base, and fall. I have since rebuilt the chair with sturdy materials and mounts and inserted a new STOP bolt to keep the chair from going too far over-center and collapsing the upper rack the way it did on mine. I don't trust the finger locks the way their designed. I hope the company will take a look at the whole design and re-evaluate their engineering to make the chair sturdy and safer than what it currently is. Anytime someone is leaning back in a zero gravity chair, their safety is highly dependent on the bolts and attachment to the base, plus the unit should have a robust locking mechanism to keep the upper back support from collapsing all the way backward the way mine did.
