Rio Beach Portable Lay Flat Folding Backpack Beach Lounge Chair with Backpack Straps and Storage Pouch, Blue Stripe

I read all the reviews and purchased this beach lounger with some trepidation. I am an old school Senior Citizen, who has been spending 6 weeks in Miami Beach for a few years now. I threw away my old plastic web lounger because a few of the pieces had broken, and then when I tried to find a new one, I was very sorry to learn they are no longer available, except for over $60. It was too late; the old one was gone, so I started searching and read all of the reviews. While most of the reviews for this product are good, I was frightened by the ones where the material had torn after only a few uses, and even worse, stories of people falling because the lounger collapsed. Some said it might not work well on the beach, so I ordered a much more expensive, taller lounger, that might be used as a camp cot, and when it arrived I immediately saw that it was way too heavy for me to carry from my condo to the beach, so I returned it. All the others even ones more expensive than this one, had the same mixed reviews , so I decided to take a chance on this one as I did not want to have to search for one when I arrived after a two day drive. This lounger arrived and I put it in my van in the box. When I unpacked it in Miami Beach, I carefully saved the box thinking there was a good chance I would have to return it. As I have said, I am a Senior Citizen, with both knees having been replaced. I am 5 feet 4 inches and weigh 148. I very carefully fixed the straps, put this on my back, and went to the beach. I made sure I put the foot part down first, watching the top, and I made sure the the legs were locked. Before I got on it, I made sure it was pressed down in the sand, and I carefully straddled it, in the middle portion, Nothing awful happened. It did not fall with me on the beach, and it did not rip. I waited to review it until I have used it 10 times in 2 hour sessions. I will be happy if it just lasts this season. So far, no rips, and no accidents. Even the back straps have still held firm. Every day I expect them to rip, but they have not. I figure if that's the only problem, the lounger is very light and I can either have the straps sewn, or just carry the lounger. It is much lighter than the old school ones I have been using. When I get out of the lounger I have made certain to swing both legs together to the sand, twist my body, and hold on to both middle bars, and push myself up, I have had no trouble getting out that way, and have had no damage. I use am umbrella and am not trying to tan, so I have not tuned over, but just read, with the back extended and my feet flat. I do like the backpack straps. I have not used the little bag. I think that's a good idea, but I have a beach bag I like to leave right next to me, putting my phone and my kindle in and out of it, rather than having to get up and go around to the back of the lounger to get things. So far I am more than pleased with this purchase. If it rips the next time I use it, I will alter this review, but so far, very good!

I bought two of these lounge chairs and took them to the beach for my son and I to use. They worked great, and I recommend. However, they are not playing about the weight limit! My son had no problems with his chair, and neither did I at first. However, I am about 10lbs over the suggested weight limit, and by day two the legs of my chair bent, and by day six, my chair was trash. My son's chair is still in excellent condition though. Long story short, abide by the weight limit. My only complaint, is the chair could be a little wider, as it left no room for my arms (my son either), so our arms had to either rest over our heads or on the ground aling our sides.

First the pros: it’s is very lightweight, easy to carry/unfold, and comfortable. Love it. Now the cons: the fabric is pulling apart at the seams and is going to split apart soon. I’ve only used the lounge about 6 times, and I weigh 150#. I’m giving it 4 stars because I love it and will still use it until it falls apart soon AND I paid less than $30 for it. If I paid any more than that, it would get 2 stars.

good quality

I wanted to replaced my nearly-vintage lounge chairs from the early 2000s. They were a similar style but made with the plastic tubing/weaving. Those chairs survived over 20 years and still work. These chairs are AWFUL! Cheaply made. They do not lock into position properly. The legs aren’t solid tubing and therefore will have weak spots. We tried them and immediately boxed them back up for a return.

Good value

This chair was comfortable but broke within less than a week! Was not super sturdy!

I bought two of these chairs to use at the beach. We are surfers so we don't spend enough time out of the water to justify a big beach set up, we usually just have towels, sunscreen, our boards and drinking water. We did a few trips this summer where we either camped or had an Airbnb close to the beach .. close enough to carry the boards and our other paraphernalia. I decided to get these chairs so that we would have a place to sit, I'm not getting any younger and I tend to konk out before my kids! These appealed to me because of the back pack straps and the carrying pouch. The chairs are super convenient and its actually easier to walk to the beach because the pouch on the chair will hold so many things. It's cut back on bags and loose items that we used to carry. I didn't notice if the chair sat low, most beach chairs do so I didn't think about it. I am not a small person and when I sit on the chair the back does get pulled forward, but I just sit gently and it hasn't been a problem. I love having a lounge chair .. while I am recovering from surfing and watching the kids out on the water. For us it was a great purchase.

It's a very practical chair for the beach but it’s already splitting at the seam.

Quality product that works extremly well.

Estoy muy contenta con esta silla. Me encantan las correas tipo mochila y su ligereza. Es lo suficientemente resistente y se limpia fácilmente. Perfecta para mis necesidades.

I wanted a fold up lounger for awhile but wanted the two strap for ease to carry. This one is perfect. Large pocket not heavy and comfy

While these were perfect, lightweight, designed with straps for easy transport and great in theory, the seams and the stitching disintegrated into a fine powder within about 6 weeks. Like finely sifted flour. The material itself tore after about 2 months of very minimal use. Massive waste of materials, the frames seem fine so will probably find someone to re-cover them but this is a very unsustainable product!!! They’re outdoor chairs so they should use materials that LAST. Instead now we have material with plastic component that will end up in a landfill. Super disappointed since otherwise they were exactly what I needed. So sad.
