OK For Us “Big Boys”
I wanted a light but sturdy portable chair to keep in my car. Something just to provide a seat when necessary.I’m 5’10” weighing in about 280 lbs and I would say this chair holds me pretty well. Although I wouldn’t push its limits too much further.Comfortability is subjective. For me it seems just ok. Has back support which is good. Sits up relatively high which is good. The seat is just wide enough to get all of me in which is good. The only complaint, because it is three legs, the family jewels sit directly over one support leg and so far that hasn’t been an issue for short periods but I’m not sure about hours on end. On the upside this chair only weighs about 5 lbs and folds neatly up without the need for a bag since it has a carrying strap built in.If your a big guy and are looking for a real outdoor chair you can sit in all day I highly recommend the King Kong by ALPS sold here on Amazon for under $60.It’s a beast of a chair (see my review) but the trade off is it is also a heavy chair weighing in at about 15 lbs.For a “lighter to haul” but still sturdy seat for us “big boys” the LightSpeed is a good choice.Seems very well constructed and built to last a number of seasons as a reliable buddy outdoors when called upon.

A great little chair to carry.
Definitely worth buying! My doctor's new office building doesn't have a lobby with chairs. I cannot stand waiting for a cab to pick me up due to weak legs. I tried a cane with a seat but that wasn't stable and it hurt my butt. So I looked for a portible chair that was light enough and easy to carry and stable enough that I could stand up to get out of it. If I sat on the steps outside, next to the railing, I barely made it to my feet. I tried this and it's great. I'm 66 y/o, 5'7" and weigh 190 lbs due to illness. Some reviews said it was uncomfortable, but I had no issues with it. It isn't sturdy enough to use as support when standing up, but using my cane I can manage without falling. It has a strap for carrying. It isn't the most comfortable to carry, but it works. It also has a Velcro strap that keeps it folded while carrying. It's easy to use and works well. I'm just glad I found it and I would buy it again.

Great For Short Sittings
I belong to a men's group, historical group, and we go camping together every six months (or, we did, until Covid came along). There are anywhere from 50 to 100 guys at each event. So at night we carry our chairs around from campsite to campsite to visit each other. This lightweight chair is very easy to carry around, but gets a little hard to sit in after a couple of hours. I got up one time to go visit nature, and another guy came around without a chair. He tried sitting in this one and fell over backwards. It does take some getting used to, and you must be very careful when placing, then sitting in it. But it is light weight, and easier to carry around with you. I'll still use it when camping, but won't plan on doing as much sitting in it as usual.

Best lightweight travel chair
Best lightweight travel chair! This chair is so comfortable it actually feels like it's padded. Only con is I wish the back was longer for more support in the lumbar region, which is where I need it most. It's perfect for those who want to take with them and need to sit down every once in awhile....for instance an outdoor flea market. It's also great for outdoor sporting events like a soccer game.I have severe back problems so this is perfect. I took it to walk in a forest (tourist attraction) with my hubby. I was able to sit down whenever I needed to take a short rest. It's very lightweight so i had no trouble carrying it. The velcro strap secures it shut and the carry strap is a great feature. I would gladly purchase more for gifts for people who need it. When you sit it in you will be surprised how comfortable it actually is.Update: I purchased one for a friend and another friend bought one too. They both love it!

It's ok, works for now.
I got this to try out with my folding steam sauna. I am a female but I would not suggest this chair for males or females wearing a dress. The way the chair is designed has a support right between the legs, and you have to spread your legs far. I think kids would love it, it would not have the same issue on a smaller body. It works for now, it's pretty sturdy, I only use it for an hour a few days a week and so far so good, still looking just in case a find a different chair.

A must have for any household
Pros:- super lightweight- legs folds in and out easily (absolutely no struggle needed to pull legs in or out)- durable material- short total length makes it easy to store in your car- doesn't take up a lot of area when deployed- nice small details: cup holder, velcro strap closure, shoulder strapcons:- puts a little pressure on your crotch area due to the 3-legs design- can't lean forward when seated due to the design.- Always have to sit straight or lean back for maximum comfort

Carry this light weight chair anywhere.
This chair is perfect for use at outdoor festivals or anywhere seating might be limited or not available. Very useful when listening to a band , eating, or just taking a rest, etc. It’s light weight at 5lbs makes it easy to carry. The quality of material is excellent. The padded seat & back rest make it comfortable to sit. The side pockets make it easy to hold a can or bottled beverage plus a small electronic device. It’s great to have when you need to sit down.

Sturdy and Lightweight.
I liked this chair and it worked perfectly for my purpose: My car needed service, but I didn't want to sit in a crowded waiting room for several hours during this pandemic. So, I took this outside with me and read my book while I waited... This chair also stored easily in my trunk, it was easy to walk around with and suited the purpose as mentioned. I can see myself using this for doctor's appointments and golf tourneys in the future. (Note: I am a woman and had no problem with the tripod leg where it was placed unlike a male reviewer who, uh - experienced discomfort where you straddle your legs to sit down, if you catch the drift.)
