I bought this chair after throwing away another cheap, disposable, inferior chair. This chair is built to last. Its steel construction holds up to my abuse. It has a solid feel. The best part of this chair are the sturdy arm wrests — I can easily get out of this chair!

Absolutely loving this new addition to my camping set up and so many other occasions!! This chair is so sturdy yet easily the most comfortable chair! Its compact enough to easily carry with you. I love the way the chair bag rolls at the top.

We absolutely love this chair! It's comfortable, sturdy, and easy to take care of! I love that it doesn't slouch in the back area like other chairs. It has been a staple so far this summer everywhere we go!

This chair is so well made, sturdy and comfortable. It slightly reclines to make it ergonomically comfortable for sitting long periods of time. It has a nice carrying sack with a strap for easy carrying. I love this chair!! It is light weight but solid so that someone heavier will feel secure sittting in it.

The padded chair was extremely comfortable. My husband and I sat on it then our grandson didn't want to give it back to us. It is super comfortable and the material is sturdy. It is a fairly good size chair. No maintenance needed just a fishing pole and lake to fish. Love this chair.

Finally! The size is excellent for tall people! Padding makes it super comfortable and seat depth is big enough to sit pretzel legged while being able to lean back slightly. This is not your average camping chair that hurts your back or bottom after a few minutes. I’ve used it in my backyard just for relaxing, reading a book, or resting during gardening. It is large and a bit heavy for me personally, but, it does come with a really nice padded strap on the carrying case and I’d definitely recommend bringing it along if you’re going somewhere you’ll be sitting a while. Also has two large cup holders with a little bungee that looks like it would accommodate a large stainless tumbler with a handle. Material is waterproof for easy cleanup of spills. I would 100% buy a second one to keep in the trunk!

This is a great chair! It's super comfy and has large cup holders. It holds a lot of weight so when my 8 year old decided to join me the chair didn't sag at all. Its easy to get out of too. The extra carry strap on the chair itself is so handy for when you dont get it back in the bag because let's be honest sometimes when we rush off soccer fields or hurry away from a campsite in the rain we aren't fiddling with those bags! This chair is a great step up from my old one.

We recieved the 2pack for my husband and I for the long days at the ball field. Tried them out last weekend and we love them. My old one would hurt my back but I used this from 9am- 6 pm and no back pain! The bag seems like it’s going to last and the shoulder strap has a padded area so it’s comfortable

Now this is a comfy chair! I’m the queen of park chairs so I was excited to use this chair. The cup holders are build nice and secures your drink well the bag that the chair sits inside of for storage is well-made. The strap on the bag is well padded so you can walk along businesses and not fill it cutting into your shoulder. The chair is self has a slight tilt to it, which is nice so that your body fits into the pocket of the chair it’s really really really well made chair. I love it and I cannot wait to continue using it onto the summer and it’s dirty enough to fit bigger bodies as well if needed.

This chair is super comfortable. It sits up a little higher than other chairs and to me it's a nice touch! Excellent back support even after sitting through a long game. It is sturdy and well built. I will definitely be purchasing more of these chairs. They are affordable and well worth it! Easy to open and comes with a convenient carrying case. No assembly needed.

I received this chair for my honest review, and it exceeded my expectations. The Core XL padded tension chair is an excellent option for taller or larger individuals. The back sits at a very comfortable angle, making it easy to sit and relax for long periods of time without feeling strained. The padding is surprisingly thick and comfortable- you honestly forget this is a foldable chair. The frame feels extremely sturdy and well-built. My larger husband sat in it and felt very secure and supported, which is a huge plus. Despite how it feels, the chair is easy to collapse and fits perfectly into the included carrying bag. I also really appreciated the added cushion on the shoulder strap, which makes carrying it much more comfortable. Overall, this is a high-quality, comfortable, and durable foldable chair. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable folding chair, especially taller individuals who often struggle to find one that truly fits.

This CORE Equipment XL Tension Chair is a great upgrade from the camping chairs we normally use. It feels a lot more sturdy because of its locking tension frame compared to the x-frame style of my other chair. It’s also much larger (fit both my kids sitting side by side) and has a taller back. I really like the cup holder design and how the elastic allows it to accommodate drinks of different sizes while still keeping them secure. The chair has a carry strap for easy transport and it comes with a heavy duty travel bag too. This will be a great chair to bring with us on camping trips, the beach, and soccer games especially because it has all terrain feet which will allow it work on sand, grass, and rock! I like the grey color and it’s a nice, sturdy material that looks like it can wipe clean easily .

Purchased a pair of these in March 2020. Have only used them 6-8 times since. The plastic piece that slides up/down on the back upright when opening & collapsing has broken, making the chair unstable. We really liked the chairs, just so disappointed.

I’ve been using the CORE XL Padded Tension Chair for a while now, and honestly, it’s one of the best outdoor chairs I’ve owned. The first thing I noticed was how spacious and sturdy it felt—finally, a chair that doesn’t feel cramped or wobbly. The padding adds a noticeable level of comfort, especially if you’re sitting for a long time around a campfire or at a tailgate. What really stands out is the tension system. It offers just the right amount of support, and the seat doesn’t sag like cheaper folding chairs tend to do. I also appreciate the higher weight capacity and the overall durable build—it feels like it’s made to last. Plus, the cup holder and side pocket are handy little bonuses that actually make a difference. Setup and takedown are quick and easy, and it folds down compactly for something so sturdy. It’s a bit heavier than a standard camp chair, but still easy to carry and the added comfort is totally worth it. If you’re looking for a reliable, roomy, and comfortable chair for outdoor use, the CORE XL is a solid pick.

I previously had a padded Core folding chair that lasted years. This one is XL but not padded. However, the construction is sturdier than the previous CORE. Buy one! It is great!
