Mainstays Folding Beach Sand Chair, Blue Tie Dye

The chair is easy to handle. Fold up...fold down. Light weight. When I opened the chair and put it on the grass, I noticed how close to the ground I will be sitting. Once sitting in the chair, I am only a few inches above the grass. I can imagine sitting in the water at the beach. Sitting where the water comes up to my feet. Great for cooling off. I am in my 50's and getting down to the ground with this chair was not like sitting on a regular lawn chair. The seat, itself, is some kind of thin canvas material. The fabric is tight across the seat and the back of the chair. There is no give. I didn't sink down into it. Once I folded it up, I held it so one part was against my body to carry. Otherwise, it opens up. No strap to keep it closed. The blue part is some type of foam used as the handle area. Mine was scrunched coming out of the box on the left side. Reminds me of the foam part I have on my lawn mower where I hold the handle. The main parts of the chair are steel, white powdered coated. I haven't tested it at the beach or in the water being that it is winter.
