Ta-Da Chair Series 2 PRO - Walking Stick with Seat, Lightweight Aluminium Pole Frame & Sturdy Foldable Stool (up to 136kg), Easy Folding Design, Ideal for Hiking & Outdoors - Adjustable

Expensive but very good and so far worth the money

Not tried it outside yet as I’ve just received it. Indoors it works as it should, as I tentatively sat my 17 stone posterior on it. Lighter than I thought so hopefully I don’t get arm ache using it. I think I’ll probably look more like an ageing old man with it rather than a “ English man in New York”, but hope to get lots of empathy. Perhaps it will stop people asking me to do lots of physical jobs for them 😃. I’ll have to get over that initial self conscious state using it out and about. I think it has the appearance more of a folded umbrella rather than a walking stick(or a shotgun-to deter muggers 😉). I went for the Pro 2 as I thought I’d go for the best and it looks as though it’s built to last for someone of my weight, although I can understand those wanting the MK1 model for its slender looks. It’s not cheap but as it’s a one off purchase and you want the best, you pay your money and take your choice. The Pro 2 alleviates the concern about its length as it’s adjustable. I’m 5’ 10” and the middle setting seems perfect and so it should accommodate those of lesser height than me and those around 6’, albeit people have different arm lengths etc. I don’t go out of my house much being 70 and a bit seized up. I also get out of breath and knee, back and muscle pain kick in after a short distance (👂where are those violins coming from? 🙂). I’m hoping my new ‘cane’ will allow me some walks in the park etc during the warmer weather, as I will need to use it to have a nice sit down after a short distance. I’ll see if my walking range improves as I continue to use it-as people keep telling me it will (if I just get off my lazy backside 🙂). Lastly the extra cash gives you an unfolding lever to hang the thing up. It also has a mobile phone holder as no one can go for more than 5 minutes now without wanting to use their phone. I can imagine a passer by of lesser repute doing a swipe and run to alleviate you of the habit. I think I’d have designed it for the phone alone, as I use mine in a folding wallet, but it requires you use one of those simple protective surrounds-which admittedly a lot of people have. So in conclusion-I’m very pleased with it so far and looking forward to taking it for a test run-from the boot of my car 😊.

Very well made chair and folds very easily. It’s very useful for me as I struggle with a bad back and need to sit down after a short period. One problem I’ve since found since buying it is that it doesn’t fit in our (standard?) suitcase. If going on holiday abroad, I don’t want to carry it as it makes managing two wheeled suitcases and the ta-da stick very hard, so I couldn’t take it on holiday with me. I could have done with it as it turns out. If it could just collapse a little bit more it would be fine.

Absolutely brilliant lightweight easy to use, really sturdy, well made, 10 out of 10 from me.

As someone with M.E. (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis), managing energy levels and avoiding post-exertional malaise is a daily challenge. The Ta-Da Chair Series 2 PRO has quickly become one of the most practical tools I own. Why it works for me: *Energy-saving: Standing in queues, waiting for transport, or even pausing on a short walk can be draining. Having a seat instantly available helps me stick to my pacing plan and rest before symptoms flare. *Lightweight and easy to carry: I don’t have much strength on bad days, but this is surprisingly light and manageable—even for someone with fatigue and muscle weakness. *Quick setup: When I need to sit, I really need to sit. The seat flips out in seconds with minimal effort—no fiddling or complicated steps. *Discreet and confidence-boosting: I sometimes feel self-conscious using mobility aids, but this feels more like a smart gadget than medical equipment. It gives me back a bit of independence. Things to keep in mind: • The seat is best for short rests, not long sitting periods. • It works best on flat surfaces. Grass or soft ground can be a little tricky. • I’d recommend checking the height to make sure it suits your frame—too high or low can affect comfort. Honestly, for anyone with M.E. who struggles with orthostatic intolerance, fatigue crashes, or just needs to stop and rest now, this is an incredibly helpful mobility aid. I wish I had found it sooner.

This is a 6 ****** product,I first used it at our hotel before going to football and I could have sold 5 of them. Works perfectly,feels and looks quality and at football,a poor old guy with 2 sticks walked by and said,I could do with 1 of those. Great quality build by the look and feel about it buy one.

Very well made but far to heavy

This is a quite expensive item, good because it folds neatly, is relatively lightweight, has a phone holder and hook, adjusts for walking stick height, and will take a heavy person whilst providing three legs so it is much more stable than a shooting stick. The seat is too hard for me to use for more than a few minutes but I found a split motorcycle gel seat with elastic straps that will fold with the stick on amazon, which is a good improvement.
