Key features & benefits

- Impressive capacity.
- Padding.
- Bottle holder and storage pouch.
- Very reasonable price.
What is in the name
Here you have an impressive folding camping chair, it is very easy to use, there is no assembly. You can open it and close in seconds. The dimensions are huge, hence the word Oversized in the name, but it still packs into a relatively thin but elongated tube shown below that measures 43 x 8 x 8 inches (109 x 20 x 20 cm).
The chair is padded and you can see this from the picture below, the same padding is throughout the seat and the backrest:
From the picture above you realize also that the chair comes with soft armrests where you have integrated a cooler and a storage pouch on the other side.
Materials
The frame is sturdy powder-coated steel with X-shaped support bars on all sides, see the picture below, so its impressive capacity is not a surprise. The fabric is a 600D polyester, they do not provide information about the padding material, most likely this is an open-cell foam.
Note that the feet are with wide caps so the chair should work reasonably well on a soft ground, and with some care, you can use it also in a floored family camping tent.
Who is it for
Regarding the capacity, the chair is officially for the weight of up to 600 lb (272 kg), so you will hardly ever need more. I have included it in my list of best chairs for heavy people.
Regarding the size, the chair is enormous. The seat is (W x D) 27 x 22 inches (69 x 56 cm). The total width is 43 inches (109 cm). I have included it in my list of chairs with very wide seats.
The seat is around 20 inches (51 cm) high, this is expected from its overall size, the chair is very suitable for taller users.
Regarding the weight, the chair is heavy with its 14 lb (6.35 kg). You have already seen its packed size, so clearly this is not an item to carry long distances, but it is portable. It is best suited for places with a car access.
