Comments about GCI Outdoor Wilderness Recliner Chair:
This chair is so comfortable and adjusts easily for a variety of reclining positions. It's easy to transport and a must have for camping. This chair is my special chair. It's also perfect for outdoor concerts. I have used this chair many times and it has held up under being placed in/out of vehicle. This chair is a bit pricey, but you won't regret your purchase, I sure haven't. I prefer this chair over my non upholstered deck furniture. I am delighted with this chair.

Comments about GCI Outdoor Wilderness Recliner Chair:
I made a review earlier on this product based on my first impresions. Basically it appeared hastily put together and cheaply built, but it was real comfortable to sit it. I felt that it did have some design problems and before the summer was over the shoddy workmanship did it in and it fell apart.The backpack straps seemed to be nice, but turned out to be a rather large design flaw. I've seen people praising this feature, but I didn't find it useful. The straps were conected to each other in a way that if you pulled one over one arm the strap would tighten the other side making it time consuming to put it on your back. Once on, the metal bolt holding the arm strap would fit painfully in the small of your back. Not something I used after the first try or so.The cup holder was flimsy, small so that it couldn't hold anything bigger than soda or beer, and loose enough to move around.I mentioned that the fabric seemed cheaply put together, and it showed after a month of regular camping use. The fabric tore and the chair started falling apart. I tried to put up with it, but decided to return it. For [$] I wasn't willing to put up with such shoddy workmanship. Especially since this amounted to being little more than a padded lawn chair.

Comments about GCI Outdoor Wilderness Recliner Chair:
I needed a new low profile chair for this years blues festival circuit. At 6' 250lbs I need something sturdy, comfortable and built to last. My previous all time favorite is no longer made and after 5 seasons was ready for the scrap heap. The REI Wilderness Recliner was the best of the bunch, low to the ground, holds my weight, nice lumbar support and real wood arm rests to help propel me out of the chair when I stand up. A cup holder and accessory pouch are thoughtful additions. My only complaint is that the seat width is about 21 inches no where near the 27 claimed open width. If you measure the outsides of the armrests you get 25 inches. If you have junk in the trunk you will not be happy in this chair. Fits me just fine though.

Comments about GCI Outdoor Wilderness Recliner Chair:
This chair is very comfortable and well made for the sitting use. However, I was disappointed because it has a thick metal ring (where the backpack straps loop through) that sticks out about one inch that digs into my upper back when carrying it with the backpack straps. I bought the chair so that I could use it to bike ride over to the lake and sit on the beach. I cannot use it in this manner because it is not portable via bike. So, maybe GCI could add some padding to that ring or make the ring smaller so that it doesn't hurt as much. But it's still a great chair that is well made and comfortable and is best used for music festivals and sitting on the beach when I drive there.

Great chair in comparison to other fold out chairs. Only negatives are that it takes up room to store and wooden arms can become damaged over time due to the elements.

Comments about GCI Outdoor Wilderness Recliner Chair:
These chairs are remarkably comfortable. We purchased one for each family member and have used them in many ways, including taking them to watch kids' outdoor sports, watching our Memorial Day parade, picnicking, relaxing in the backyard and sometimes even indoors. They fold flat so can easily be stored in small spaces. They have lumbar support which makes them even more comfortable. The only difficulty is the mechanism for adjusting the degree to which the chair reclines can be a little difficult to use. It requires adjusting a strap that is attached to both sides of the seat and goes around the back of the chair. It sometimes requires a number of attempts to adjust the degree of incline and requires a little persistence and patience, but once done, it is very comfortable. Perhaps the next model could change this somehow to make the adjustment a little easier. This is a relatively minor problem, and overall, this is a great product.

Comments about GCI Outdoor Wilderness Recliner Chair:
I'm 6'2" and 240 pounds, so I quickly crush those cheap lawn chairs most discount stores sell. But I didn't want to spend $120 (or more) for a more durable camp chair. I settled on this chair at half that price and thought, "if it breaks I'll just take it back… [...]!" Well I've used this chair several times now and wanted to wait to be sure it would hold up before writing a review; so far, so good! This chair is fairly lightweight, folds up easily, it's stable and sturdy. It's perfect for car camping and many other outdoor uses. I intend to buy a second and maybe a third chair. It does sit a lot lower to the ground than many other camp chairs so take that into consideration.

Comments about GCI Outdoor Wilderness Recliner Chair:
I am just a little vertically challenged at 5'0". All other folding chairs hit me wrong on the back of my legs and the blood gets restricted. This chair I sit correctly, it is easy to get up out of, even after a long day in the saddle, and we have just found another use for it in the pick-up topper for camping when fishing.
Overall, I have had it 2 years and you can't tell it is that old. We are not kind to our chairs in the horse trailer, so mine is very well constructed.
I don't wash it, but it doesn't look dirty.
It isn't light, but I don't haul it very far. the straps are a little flimsy for getting on your shoulders, but these straps adjust the back. So I don't understand the comment on sitting upright, or I can release the strap and recline.
Well, we are going to pick-up our second chair tonight. Hope this is helpful.

Comments about GCI Outdoor Wilderness Recliner Chair:
We use these chairs outdoors on the deck or grass.
The kids like to use them indoors for watching TV when things get too crowded on the couch in the hot weather.
This chair is very comfortable, provides excellent lumbar support, and reclines. The only thing I would change is the way in which the degree to which one reclines is adjusted. It is adjusted by tightening or loosening a strap that is attached to the seat on either side and runs through the back of the chair, and is a little difficult to adjust. The positive aspect of this is that the degree to which the chair reclines can be adjusted to any angle, rather than a few set angles as are many other chairs. Chairs fold relatively flat and thus are easy to store when not in use.
Service and delivery comments:
Delivery was prompt, chairs arrived before predicted and arrived in excellent condition.
Customer service staff were friendly, patient and very helpful.
