Who is it for
Capacity-wise, the chair is quite impressive. Its official capacity is 400 lb (181 kg). This is not surprising when you see how strong its frame looks. So according to its declared capacity, this chair is supposed to be able to support even the heaviest wrestlers in the Japanese top sumo division.
The brand behind this chair is known for its strong chairs, you can see them many here in the site. This is why I have added it to my list of camping chairs for heavy people.
Size-wise, the chair is far less impressive with its overall dimensions of (H x W x D) 31 x 20 x 20 in (79 x 51 x 51 cm). The seat is moderately high, it is 17.5 inches (44 cm) above the ground.
