It has a weight capacity of 250 lbs and measures 23.25 x 34.25 x 19.38 inches. If your lawn chairs are still dirty after hosing them down, scrub them using a rag or a soft brush and a mixture of warm water and mild dish soap. The Lawn Chair USA Classic Lawn Chair came out on top because it’s just so universal. With a foldable, lightweight aluminum frame and retro, UV-resistant webbing, it’s equally ideal for camping, tailgating, and hanging in the park. The only downside is that this chair weighs 8.3 pounds, which can be a deterrent for adventurers who like to hike to their campsite.

Custom lawn chairs are a great way to promote your business while also giving your employees and clients a comfortable place to relax. The Caravan Sports Infinity Zero Gravity chair is yet another comfy and spacious lawn chair for those who are serious about relaxing. It reclines to 50° and locks the backrest in place easily wherever you’d like it to stay. We like that the mesh material keeps things fairly breathable as the air temperature rises.

Lawn chairs are primarily a product used to relax, so we thought we should be as comfortable as possible, for as long as possible, in each chair. Chairs scored lower if they became less comfortable quicker, if they made us sweat due to less-than-breathable fabrics, or if we found ourselves fidgeting around to get comfier. The Coleman Cooler Quad is a pretty standard camping-style chair at first glance, but it has a few tricks up its sleeve. Notably, the left armrest unzips to reveal a cooler pouch that can fit up to four cans, while the right armrest sports a cup holder.

In stark contrast to Helinox’s minimalist Chair Zero above, their Sunset Chair puts a premium on comfort and support with a high back and wide, cradle-like seat. Other camp chair models on this list are made for one person, but why stop there? Kelty’s Low Loveseat is a totally viable option for camping and even can double down as cheap outdoor furniture for your patio. Keep in mind that the seat is rather low at just 13.5 inches off the ground (many camp chairs are closer to 18 in.), but the upside is that the Low Loveseat is stable and still pretty easy to get in and out of. Not only does our selection include lawn chairs, but SCHEELS also carries a wide variety of camping chairs too. With a camping chair, you’ll enjoy better overall durability, comfort, and convenience.

The design, size, and weight is nearly identical, but the nylon fabric has been replaced with polyester. The Ozark Trail Oversized Mesh Chair from Walmart, although similar to our pick in size, was far less comfortable, with rough-feeling material that was obviously of lower quality. We later found, after six months of outdoor patio furniture frequent use, that the stitching along one arm had come unravelled and that the small straps holding up the back of the armrests had both ripped in half. The GCI Outdoor chair also has a pocket built into the back that can hold a phone or a book. This chair comes in green or blue and is rated to hold up to 250 pounds.
