American Trails Extra-Wide Premium 30" Director's Chair Black Frame with Hunter Green Canvas, Bar Height

Nice chair, looks great! Easy to set up and comfortable

First let me say that I like this chair a lot, I've always been a fan of director's chairs and this one's pretty nice. It's not as nice as one I used to have where the back rest was larger and actually swiveled, but oh well, that was a long time ago. I plan on using this chair as an occasional chair only in my studio apartment, and for that purpose it will be ideal. It's substantial and heavier than I thought it would be. The color of the wood seems true to the product photo, but the red canvas seating and back are pretty bright! I still like it though...What I'd like to tell you though is my experience with it straight out of the box. It was easy to set up the seat and back pieces, but I couldn't get the braces to lock in flat. Not possessing great upper body strength, I tried different approaches without success. I ended up using my rubber coated hammer handle, standing and pushing down with my whole weight on the braces. I knicked my pinky the first time, and now I have a bruise, so be careful if you have to use this method.The frame had several little knicks and mysterious tiny holes here and there, so I used a furniture scratch repair marker to disguise those. The sliders on the feet weren't to my liking as well, so I unscrewed them and replaced them with cup sliders for carpet use.All in all this is a great chair, it just needed a tweaking...

Good quality chair. Sleek look!

Bought a bunch of these a few years ago. They have been great and very sturdy. Bought 2 more recently and they are not the same quality. Only used them a couple of times and one of the arms broke off! The gotcha is that that if you don't discover the issues before you dispose of the packaging then it is a serious pain to return it, even it's possible to return just one. I glued and screwed the arm back on. Will see if that works...

My intended use has for dangling feet into our hot tub while sitting outside.Height is perfect for this. However, it feels a little unstable to me. Maybe when I get used to it it will be better.Very nice. There are two hinges on the legs, maybe to fold down to store the chair. I had to use a rubber mallet to force them into a locked position. My 180 pounds was not sufficient when my entire weight was supported by my hands. Several raps with the mallet locked them. Folding up? I don’t think so.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Good price, large size!

High quality, sturdy and folds down to a nearly flat profile for storage.

Nice study chair. Good seat height for tall people. Comfortable wide seat.Nice black finish - hope it holds up outside and without chipping.Initial setup: could not get the hinges to fold down since the new seat canvas was too tight. Sprayed hinge with WD40 and finally able to straighten the hinge. Note - protect hand with scrap fabric since hinges will [painfully] pinch. Will not attempt to fold up for storage until the seat canvas has stretched a bit...Nit - may need to find cushion for the arm rests; zero contour...
