Rio Brands BY405-0138 Hi Back Web Chaise for Lounge,Foldable, Alloy Steel, Blue

I use this chaise almost every day and am very happy with it. I fold it up and bring it in after using it to prevent feral cats spraying on it, and I don't want the elements to damage it, so am a bit concerned with how long the chaise will last with so much handling, but it has held up well for half a year so far. It is slightly heavy for me to carry in and out this way each day, but I've gotten used to it and it has worked out fine.Prior to this chaise I was using the tri fold plastic chaises Rite Aid used to sell and I was used to the simple way they folded up, so it was a bit of a learning curve for me to figure out how to fold and unfold this chaise each time and carry it, but I quickly got used to the different technique. It was also a bit tricky to find out how to adjust it. Raising the back up a bit higher is easy to do even while in the chair, but lowering it back down is impossible (for me anyway) while in the chair and still difficult when out of it as both arm rests must be brought forward and raised at the same time, not an easy feat. I finally worked out a technique for getting it where I want it when I first unfold it. While still folded I lean the chaise far back while unfolding, this causes the locks to fall back above the pin so I can stretch it open all the way, then after it's unfolded I simply raise the back to the first lock and that is where I always keep it. There are 5 levels for the back, but sadly it does not go all the way down if you are wanting to lie flat for sleeping. You can only recline. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.The other plastic chaises I used to use always only lasted the summer and then broke to pieces and had to be replaced every year, but they stopped selling them so I opted for this one and so far it has not broken or needed repair, even with all the handling it gets each day.This chaise was so slippery for me to lie on when I first got it I kept sliding down, but that was easily solved with a towel or blanket. After a while it is not so slippery anymore until it gets washed, then it's slippery again. I think cushions are sold for these chairs and lying on them is more comfortable and the sliding would then stop, but I don't have one at this time. The chaise has some velcro wrapped around the frame where you can attach a pillow or cushion so it will stay in place, something I plan on doing at some point.Another thing I like about this chaise is that the tubing does not fill up with water when getting washing because it is all closed. Washing it is not the easiest since the webbing is woven criss crossed, but the nylon is definitely more durable than the plastic was, so it is worth the inconvenience. So far so good. Altogether it has turned out to be worth the hefty (for me) price. Very pleased with my purchase.

Rey well built and exactly what I wanted. I can replace the nylon when and if I ever need to.

The beaches and backyards

This chair is very well made and comfortable. Sits low to the ground. Nice and heavy duty.

I like the chaise but I just wish it was a little taller. But it's perfect for my patio.

This lounge chair is comfortable but heavy to transport and tricky / awkward to unfold.I miss my very old light weight webbed aluminum - frame chair! Who sells those beauties these days?

This chair is adequate. It weighs 11 pounds, which is not that much; however, I would love to be able to find an old-fashioned, aluminum-framed, light-weight webbed lawn chair. Why do these chairs need to be of such heavy steel framing? The weight makes it diffucult to take it to beaches, parks, etc., where you'll be carrying it (and a cooler, kids, and on and on) a distance from the car to your site. It's fine if you're leaving it in your yard or on the porch, but not convenient for travel...

I bought this chair so I could get sun on both front and back sides. THIS CHAIR DOES NOT OPEN UP FLAT in order to lay on one's stomach. Also, although the wood armrests look good, mine had a crack that scratched my arm and gave me a sliver. Too hard to return (heavy & I tossed the box it came in), so I'm living with it. Not happy.
